We are thrilled to announce that a fantastic litter has been born in the Diva Noire kennel! The pairing represents exceptional quality, and we are excitedly looking forward to the puppies' development.

In 2025, alongside the European Winner and BOB titles, my dachshund Mantra Diva Noire achieved the BOB title at both club shows under breed specialist judges, and under an Italian judge, she also became the most beautiful dog of the show from the veteran class, thereby winning the highly prestigious János Márczé (vom Golf) perpetual trophy! I believe this is an unprecedented achievement.

At the beginning of 2026, Mantra concluded her extraordinary show career with the WUT Veteran World Winner and Best Veteran titles.

In 2025, with my dog Ejforiya Iz Strani Grez, we were European Winners and BOB (Best of Breed). This result is special because we were the first brown dapple standard smooth-haired dachshund to achieve the European Winner title.

In 2023, at IDS, National, and Club shows, we won 25 Best of Breed (BOB) titles and 32 CACIB titles this year alone! (This outstanding result exactly matches the balance of 2022). Furthermore, we received BOS 18 times, JCACIB 13 times, and Best Junior titles 12 times.

What is a huge pride is that this year the Diva Noire dachshunds also shone brightly in the BIS results!

Woody Diva Noire won BIS at the annual club show, Bingo Diva Noire won Junior BIS under our renowned Italian breed specialist judges, but no less outstanding an experience was Rakéta Diva Noire's R.BIS result in Hódmezővásárhely (IDS), or Ruby Diva Noire's R.BIS result at the prestigious annual János Márczé memorial show.

In total, in 2023, we won BIS 1 time, R.BIS and Puppy BIS 2 times, BIS 3, Junior BIS, and R.JBIS 1 time, as well as the BOS BIS title. Naturally, we also won the Best of Group (BOG) title several times this year, or had our dachshunds placed in the group.

I would specially highlight the MTOE 2023 Club Shows in Miskolc, where fantastic Italian breed specialist judges Arianna Giorgi and Andrea Randazzo judged. In a high-quality field, all club winner titles (BOB, BOS, Best Junior) were won by Diva Noire dachshunds, which was further enhanced by the incredible conclusion: DIVA NOIRE dachshunds could stand on top of the BIS, Junior BIS, BOS BIS, and Puppy BIS podiums as well.

This year, in both sexes, a DIVA NOIRE dachshund could also be the Derby Winner (Bingo and Aura Diva Noire), the value of which was increased by the fact that the owners of the Diva Noire dachshunds won this recognition based on the judging of world-renowned breed specialist Dr. Tamás Jakkel.

I would like to thank the proud and enthusiastic owners and my dachshund friends:

• József Gelencsér and Mariann
• István Müller and Tímea
• Mihály Opre and Ágnes
• Terézia Plesenková and Lucia Bartáková

...for the year, who invested love, time, and work to prepare and successfully present their dogs originating from me at prestigious shows! It is a very heartwarming feeling that I could delight in the professionally presented Divas born in my hands, now grown up, and I could rejoice in their outstanding successes together with their owners!

In 2022, at IDS and Club shows, we won 25 Best of Breed (BOB) titles and - with 6 different Diva Noire dachshunds among them - we won Best of Group (BOG) at 7 international shows. We won 32 CACIB titles this year alone, and furthermore received the BOS title 14 times.

At the multi-day Dachshund World Show organized by the World Union of Teckel (WUT) in Italy (Cesena), we won BIS1 Breeding Group at both the Jubilee WUT and the World Show. At the Jubilee WUT show (which is only held every 5 years), we achieved the best male (Jubilee WUT Champion) and the best junior female (Jubilee WUT Junior Champion) titles.

At the Italian ABC Club Show, all classes were won by the dachshunds I entered, so it was a great pride and experience that only Diva Noire dogs competed for BOB. (Winning BOB, BOS, Best Junior titles and Italian club champion titles as well), and on the closing day, we could enrich our "wall of pride" with another World Winner title and class victories.

At the Komárom MTTE Club Show, under the judging of world-renowned Spanish breed specialist Juan Naveda Carrera, our success in Italy continued. In a very populous and high-quality field, all club winner titles (BOB, BOS, Best Junior) were won by my own Diva Noire dachshunds!

Among the numerous champion titles acquired in 2022, I am particularly proud of my female, Unitas Diva Noire. At 18 months old she is HGrCh, from 9 CACIB shows in a row she became CACIB 9 times, out of which 7 times BOB, simultaneously Hungaria Club Winner and Best Derby Winner as well!
