Lilja's show debut

Our sweet little Lilja (Hi-Lite Bulldobas Wow Factor) went to her first show on Saturday. It was an all breed puppy show in Seinäjoki. She went all the way to BOB and BIG-3 puppy under the judge mrs. Saara Sampakoski!!

Of course we are very proud of her debut and of the critique she got, we are happy to continue from here :)
Congrats to her co-owner Mervi as well!

First outdoor show of the season in Helsinki

The entry, as usual, was very nice 30. It's about the same in every Int show at the Southern Finland area. The judge this time was mrs. Jean Westren from Ireland.

We only had 2 boys with us to show and they did wonderful job!
Rocky (HL Hot Rod) was the 2nd best male with a usable res-cacib out of 18 males!



And our young boy Ruuti (HL Saturday Night Fever) did not much worse as he was bm-3 with a cc!









So the day was not only successful but also otherwise very nice with all our friends, one even all the way from Norway! It was so lovely to see you Liv :)

And thank you Tuija for keeping the company.... ;)

Active weekend!!

On Saturday the same team (the same dogs that were in Lahti a week ago) went to this huge Tampere Int show, I guess it's the 2nd biggest in Finland. Entry of Basenjis was 21 and the judge was mr. Ronald James from GBR.

First out in the ring was lovely young master Ruuti, winning junior class again with exc-1 and cq.
Brother Raisu had the same result in intermediate class.
Rocky was 3rd in champion class with cq as well. In the best male competition Ruuti was placed as 4th best male with a cc!! Followed by Raisu, who received the res-cc - so well done our boys!




Our lovely girl Hertta (HL Hula Hoops) was 3rd best bitch with a res-cacib and had a lovely critique, as well as did the boys!

We showed once again breeder's group and Hi-Lite was given the BOB-prize out of 2 groups! We were so happy!
In the finals, out of a great entry of course, this group was among the best 5!!!! The judge there was mr. Rodney McDowell (IRL).





On Sunday, Hertta's owner Mari took her to a LC competition, and they drove 350 kilometers one way... Anyway, it was all worth it as Hertta won the 1st prize with her 3rd LC CC out of her 3rd race!!! She even managed to fall down in the final run, still she scored lovely points 460 together!! This is just wonderful news - congrats dear! These are Hertta's:




Yesterday I also made a "small trip" to Oulu area to meet 3 of our pups out of the latest litter living there. They are now 5 months and I am very very pleased on how they all look!

This is mr. Seti (Wise Guy):





And this is little Lilja (Wow Factor), we looooove also her:







I also met Hilla (Wannabe). Hilla has a very beautiful head and she is a gorgeous mover.



Thank you everyone involved this weekend - you all are just priceless <3
