Multiple Best In Show Winning
Tucker was shown sparingly as a young puppy, yet began his show career winning Best Baby Puppy In Show. He is from our successful combination of Australian and American bloodlines, sired by Am Ch Prydain Trademark HT (USA), and out of our 'little dynamo' Ch Rustufarion Little Star. Tucker completed his Championship Title as a two-year-old, after taking home his first Runner Up Best In Group award and has been unstoppable ever since, proudly a Multiple Best In Show, Runner Up Best In Show, Class In Show, and a Multiple Royal Best of Breed winner. Tucker has Multiple Royal Group Placements as Rustufarion's most successful Puli to date! Tucker was also proudly amongst the first to qualify for the new Supreme Champion title in July 2012.
Tucker was co-owned with and very much adored by Dean Hughes and Russell Barker. After an incredibly successful show career, Tucker retired to enjoy being boss around the house and all those extra cuddles and cookies that come with retirement. The gap he leaves in our hearts will never be replaced as he was truly 'one of the greats.'
