On the night show CACIB Umag (June 14th 2008) Bura has achieved an extraordinary success.
Austrian Judge Monika Blaha described her by the following words:
"10 months old, good size and structure, good chest, good angulation, growing hair"
and gave her titles Young Dog Winner and Junior Best of Breed.
This qualified Bura to represent the tornjak breed in junior class in the Best in show program.
In a large number of young dogs of different breeds Bura took highly 2nd place and so in the best
possible way presented the tornjak breed on this great international show, stepped on the podium
and come home with a huge cup.

1st Nacional tornjak championship was held on 17th of May 2008 as part of CAC Tomislavgrad (BIH). Judges Refet Hadzic and Srecko Kukic had the difficult task to choose the best Tornjak among 118 applicants. The winner was a dog Soni owned by Damir Perić from Bjelovar. My dogs did not participate in the exhibition, but much of their relatives participated. So Bura's sister Kosa owned by Tomo Raič (breeder of Lyra and Bura) took highly second place in the competition over 17 young females. Surely it was a special experience to be part of the exhibition, which gathered so many beautiful Tornjaks.
Results are here.
