Lahti INT

A super show weekend at Easter time started at Lahti International Show and what a rocket start for Maisa's shows for year 2011: She won BOB out of 40 basenjis under judge mrs. Carmen Haller from Canada :-))) Great job she did after over 7 months show break and her puppies born in Dec. The day was fantastic otherwise as well; Maisa's brother Rene won BOS, Duke was 4th best male and young Nikke was exc-1 with cq in junior class. The crowning of the day was Bulldobas breeders class BIS-4 placement!! Congrats Tipi and thank you dear friends with your lovely company throughout the day. Special thanks to Taru for keeping me company :-)

Vaasa INT

We stopped our tiny show brake and entered to Vaasa international show where the judge was mr. Svein Helgesen from Norway. Entry was 18 and the news are fabulous: first Lego (Hi-Lite D'Light Bulldobas), who has by the way grown up into a handsome young man, won the junior class with excellent and qc. Duke then won the ch class with cq and we were sooo excited in the best male competition as Duke was 1st with cacib and Lego 2nd with cc!!!! It was Lego's 2nd show and 2nd cc ;) Super sweet black beauty of ours, Alli, was exc2 with cq in junior class. In the end Duke won BOB - we are so proud and happy about him. In the group finals he was also shortlisted among the best ones.

At the same trip Janne visited Faruk's breeders with our "little boy". We are pleased that he got nice criqitue from his breeder :-)

Alli's health results

The black beauty Alli (Kingwanas Greatest Story Of All) has had some health testing done with eyes having minor ppm and her thyroids are normal as well - great!

News from Sighthound Club

We received a lovely letter from our local sighthound club telling that Maisa was the number 1 show dog 2010!! We value this "title" a lot as this area is filled with lots of many topwinning sighthounds :-)

Tuusniemi group show

Tuusniemi group show was very succesful to our team; brother and sister Nikke and Minni represented us and they were placed as BOB (Nikke with his 3rd cc) and BB-3 (Minni). We are soooo pleased with their critiques and the way they are kept in a such good condition by their owners!! So congrats owners Taru and Katja :-)
