The Champions Clubmatch (Dutch Akita Association) in Franeker is Pippa’s very first show (only 4 months old), but she feels comfortable in the ring: best baby of breed. Judge Kenneth Buxton (USA) writes is his report:

• Head: Nice puppyhead, at this time the skull is a little low
• Dentition: Very good
• Forequarters: Proper angles, shoulder, adequate bone for size
• Hindquarters: Same as forequarters
• Coat: Very good puppycoat
• Tail: Nice high tailset
• Gait: Very good for a puppy of this age
• General appearance: Proper body proportions, nice feet, I would like to see overall body a little broader but this will propably grow
