22.11.2014 were born the long waited puppies of Mooris (Nightwing Country Boy) and Käpiku (Miliy Zver Suzanna) - 7 boys, 3 black and 4 brindle.
18-19.10.we visited Rakvere national shows with Ella and Liina. First day they were judged by Jurate Butkiene, who found them both to be excellent and nothing more. For the second day, the girls were much better and judge Livija Zizevske awarded Ella with CAC and Liina with JCAC. First JCAC for Liina and last CAC for Ella - so as soon as the hunting trials are done, we can confirm her EST CH title. In additional Ella was BOS and Liina was BOB junior.
Thank you all involved, especially the ones who survived with us the sunday morning without any scratch!
We took part of these shows with only two dogs, one of them entered to show first time ever. Results were more than satisfying :)
Iiah's Donna Prima, called Klaara by her owners, was shown first time in puppy class to BOB puppy.
Oliviera Mia Oops Fantazija, called Mia at home, was shown both days as a champion. First day with EX1, BB, CACIB and BOB, second day EX1, BB, CACIB and BOS.
Thank you judges for appreciating our mother-daughter team!

As usual, we had holiday planned for beginning of August and this time all went as planned - we spent four lovely days in the holiday city in Druskininkai, next to a lake so dogs had a chance to learn new skills, including swimming :)
We did participate also at shows with Ella and Liina - Ella being just excellent all three days and Liina being BOB puppy all three days. Thank you everyone for lovely holiday!

Thank you, judges, for appreciating our dogs! Thank you, handlers Merle Reeds, Ilme Kukk, Kertu Oder and Anabel Leedu for excellent handling work!'
Our Ups after the win on 1.06:
Last Sunday, 4.5.14, we took an early morning trip aiming to get a better result of the blood tracking with Ups. I was not happy with her III grade, as I know missis Ups is able to do better. This time, she took it even too energetically. Result: 72.5 points and II grade. She cut straight one corner and did not have nerve to work through the second one, we also need to work on reporting - but no problem, we continue training. Thank you, judge Liga Spandega from Latvia and organisers!
19.04.14 we took part with Ella of Narva international show and celebrated the 50th anniversary of the local dog breeders' club.
Judged this time by Valetina Ivanischeva from Russia, Ella kept her style - excellent description, BOB and third CACIB in a row! Thank you very much, for appreciating our Ella so high! Again, due to puppies, we did not stay for groups - but we promise to correct ourselves from now on.
