Herefordshire Crufts winners lead the way
9:00am Thursday 15th March 2012 in Kington
Martha the Hungarian Puli
Meet Martha, a Herefordian Hungarian Puli who impressed the crowd at Crufts.
The nine-and-half-year-old, believed to be one of the oldest females competing at this year’s show, was one of three Herefordshire dogs to win a Best in Breed award at this year's Crufts.
Martha's owner Jacki Evans, of Kington, said: "She just loves the shows, especially Crufts.
"When the crowd applauds she knows it is for her."
Other Herefordshire winners were Mirage, a three-year-old Cardigan Welsh Corgi, owned by Kevin Drover from Ross-on-Wye, and Kevin, a 20-month old Italian Greyhound, owned by Kay Rutter from Queensway.
Crufts was founded by Charles Cruft, a general manager for a dog biscuit manufacturer, in 1891.
