Judging guinea pigs at the SMF club show in Sweden

My first time travelling in 15 years…. And it’s to judge guinea pigs in Sweden, with my best friend Gary Taylor.
A 2 hour train ride…a flight to Denmark and another massive train journey over a bridge connecting Sweden to Denmark.
Lots of amazing people and some fantastic guinea pigs to judge, including my first time handling a skinny pig, we see a Guinea pig hat wearing contest and a cucumber eating competition.
Another unique class was the team class, showing a breeders depth and quality in their stud.
I learned a lot and made some really good friends, hope you enjoy the video.
Thanks to Lena for asking us to judge and organising everything, a huge thanks to a Nikita, for bing my book steward and making sure I didn’t do anything wrong, and to Emma and Eva for taking us around and putting us up for the night, we had an amazing time and hope to come back again.

The Scandinavians do it so well - looks a great and modern way to show and very transparent on the show grading which is lovely to see. Does looks so open and light in there. Superb sized cavies - argente rex looked the business. The Rex generally looked superb. Tremendous video again

Thank you so much! Really glad you enjoyed it, the Rex were of a superb quality, the layout of the show and the way the day was conducted made me re think the way I participate at shows here in the Uk.

I was looking forward to seeing Jens and Darren's longhairs! Must be a dream to handle in person

They were in Australia judging when I was in Sweden, hopefully I’ll get to see them next time

So fun to watch! (I'm from Sweden originally.) Was probably a decade ago I last visited a show there.

[@guineapigswithgreg4575]

I would definitely go back, some of the nicest people in the fancy 😍

Lovely video Greg definitely different to watch how they do things over there

[@guineapigswithgreg4575]

Thanks, you would have loved the chocolates over there, from Nete, very big pigs and good colour just like yours
