Both his sisters Ebony (Vienna Calling Question of Time) and Phys (Vienna Calling Quantum Theory) also started through, Phys was at her first show at the Northern & Midland Beagle Club show under judge Charlotte Ayres-Cousins (Viracocha Kennel) 2nd in Puppy and 4th in Novice class.

The English Foxhounds were a short adventure in our life. We imported Prof and Topic (Haughmill Here to Stay) from the UK with the goal to make the breed more known and popular in Europa. Due to the sudden death of Prof this experience ended.
Dream (Maglodi Biggy-Boys Dream) became the best veteran female of the year by the cup competitions of the Austrian Beagle Club.
The young generation was placed 2nd & 1st in the Best Breeding Group competition.
Dollar (Vienna Calling Dollars to Donuts) was the absolute star of the day. After winning the breed under Heinz Watschinger he didn't stop till the win over all breeds and became Brackenshowsieger /Scenthound Show Winner 2016 (BISS) under Karl P. Reisinger.
Our second time at the world's greatest dogshow was overwhelming - not just because of the athmosphere we love but because two of our, Austrian bred beagles were placed. To get a placement at the Crufts, in the homeland of our breed is more than a simple aknowledgement. Frank (Vienna Calling Desert Warrior) got Reserve and his sister, Bonita (Vienna Calling Daddy's Little Girl) was 3rd - both in the Yearling class, under breed specialist Christine Lewis - Fallowfield Beagles.
Here Bonita's critique: "3 Tomkahazy-Hajek’s Vienna Calling Daddy’s Little Girl, lovely compact very feminine little bitch, finer but pretty head with soft expression, arched neck into well placed shoulders, good upper arm, short ribs & couplings, strong over the loin, correct bend of stifle, parallel hocks, moved well."
Our kennel was awarded Austrian Beagle Club Bronze Breeder by the year-end cup competitions. This result includes the Austrian show results of all our dogs & offspring. Being a small breeder with not a huge number of own dogs it was a great achievement for us.
Our always happy Olive (Vienna Calling All In) beside achieving the titles "Winter Winner" & "Zagreb Winner" went Club Champion, won the breed and later became res. Best in Show Speciality while Frank (Vienna Calling Desert Warrior) was Junior Club Champion under judge Dr. Vladimir Piskay.
We spent a very nice time in Brno together with some of our offspring. Our dogs were in the cards - Bonita (Vienna Calling Daddy's Little Girl) was awarded 4th excellent (winning a very competitive junior class also on the day before) and her brother Frank (Vienna Calling Desert Warrior) was placed excellent 3rd as well under judges Martin Sanders & Petr Dvorak.

Dream (Maglodi Biggy-Boys Dream) has won the honor class at the Anif Clubshow the day before with exc1/CAC under judge Claudia Pelzmann (Kennel von der Thurnmühle).
