Judging Brindle Females @ Norway

Øystein Eikeseth is our  judge for all  Brindle females at Atibox 2023

I have been in boxers for more than 50 years. Besides boxers l also have shown and bred Standard schnauzers and Sealyham terriers for a period, but boxer has always been my main breed.

I got my first boxer already in 1968 and I bred my first champion in 1971. I later have imported boxers from abroad, both from England and later from Italy. I have had several boxers of continental breeding, one of them was top boxer in Norway 2009 and 2010, the Norwegian bred World Winner and Multi champion Cavajes Operah. Due to other commitments, I have not been very productive as breeder but have bred some champions out of the three breeds.

I have been a member of the Norwegian Boxer Club for more than 50 years and have been chairman and member of the board for several years. I have been judging boxers since 1995 and am also authorized for other breeds in FCI group 2. I have judged boxers in all the Nordic countries, Italy, the Netherlands, Luxembourg and Indonesia. I have also judged many boxer specialty shows in several countries, the last in 2020 in Norway.

I was Organizing Manager of the Norwegian Kennel Club for more than 20 years and was often responsible for the big international shows in Norway, including the FCI European Winner Show in Oslo 2015. I am now member of the Board of the Norwegian Kennel Club.

I have followed the standard of the boxers by visiting European boxer shows, including many ATIBOX shows, the last 40 years. The last shows were the Atibox show in Madrid 2022 and the Italian annual winner show 2022.
