A ROTTWEILER puppy has romped home with four rosettes in only his third show.

Rochess Fifth Element - known at home as Ma'kya - won Best Puppy, Reserve Best Puppy, Best Opposite Sex Puppy and his Puppy Class at the Rottweiler Club of Wales Show, in Builth, Wales last Sunday.

Eleven-month-old Ma'Kya, from Warndon Villages, Worcester, has also gained qualification for Crufts 2004.

His mistress, Rebecca Mormoyle, who has never owned a show dog before, said praise should go to Ma'kya's professional handler, Emma Richards, who went in the ring with him at shows.

"She has worked really hard with him. I couldn't do it - my belly turns to jelly!" she said.
