Ch Bitcon Gold Coast at Northey JW ‘Coast’ - Ch Bitcon Gold Coast at Northey JW - has a fantastic dual purpose record, winning in the show ring from a puppy, becoming a champion at 2 years of age, and by the time he was 3, he had won 4 Challenge Certificates, 3 Best of Breeds, 11 reserve Challenge Certificates and his Junior Warrant. We then decided to semi-retire him from shows to concentrate on his working career. Coast’s first season was in 2008/9 when he was awarded a Certificate of Merit, a 2nd prize and near the end of the season, a 1st, which qualified him for entry to Open stakes. During the 2009/2010 season, he won a further 6 awards. Coast is the only Vizsla Show Champion who has won an Open qualifying Field Trial towards the title of Field Trial Champion. He did this at The Kennel Club Open stake in December 2009. He now has nine Field Trial awards plus his Show Gundog Working Certificate. He is also worked regularly on the local shoot picking-up. Coast has a wonderful temperament, biddable in every way, and a great personality. Health wise, under the British Veterinary Association/Kennel Club schemes, he has a hip score of 7-5 (equal to the breed average) and his elbow score is 0-0. His principle certificates for show and field trial awards can be seen on this website, along with copies of health certificates. Coast is an experienced stud dog.
