Amsterdam

Lovely days at WDS in Amsterdam among a lot of friends. My dogs did their best but no big win for them this time. Musse EXC and no place in a class of 18 males. Miranda 2 in veteran class. Elliot got VG. Our breeders group was 2 out of 3. So happy Mathilda and Eternell was there with me ♥

I do have some critic to the organizer. Putting the SC and LC in different halls – yes, different halls!! – that is totally unacceptable! The rings was placed in a cluster of 4 and to put all 4 Chihuahuas beside each other would be so easy and of course the only way as it’s the same breed. We really tried to have it changed instantly but no… In SC they were not even beside each other.
Also the horror to have to leave the other dogs and all the private stuff when going to an other hall. Who watch it then?! Someone can just steal the dogs. Amazing!

We pay really much to show at the most important show in the world. We compete on a very high level and many of us couldn’t even show our dogs because of this!
Let me say this, we are very used to have 2 dogs in different rings at the same time – that is our reality in this breed and not what this is about. This is about bad organisation and to realize when the ring plan was released, that the Chihuahuas were placed in different halls. So very bad and ignorant!

An other thing is that we need to see and watch the other dogs and talk with people working with our breed. It’s very important for a breed and for the breeders to have this opportunity. No were else it’s possible to see so many high quality dogs at the same time and meet all breeders from around the world. Such a great chance for networking. 

Also the organization of the parking was terrible. I had bought parking before and was just supposed to drive in to the garage – that took med 1 1/2 hour!

I could say more things but I leave it there  😉

Thank you Mascha Hogeboom, Eternell Andrén & Mathilda Borslöv for photos.

We showed 2 days in Tvååker (that is very close to our home – wonderful!) It was very very hot, over 30°c! Really hard for the dogs. Not Mirandas fav whether and she kind of never get a place when it’s so warm. And didn’t this weekend either :p
Very many dogs entered both days.
Musse did great! He has really been very fortunately so far this year! BOB the first day and BM2 the second day. On 7 shows in a row he has been unbeaten male. He has 3 BOB and 2 BOS in Sweden and 2 BOB in Germany. Pretty good 🙂 He also got his first NORDIC CAC (his first try for one).
We also had a group in LC that was BOB.

In SC the little junior boy Thomas, Chi’s Lovely Sheriff Of Wiltshire became BM2 with R-CAC and R-Nordic CAC!! Won over many champions! He was there just 1 day. Well done Lisa Göl and congrats!

Thank you Mathilda, Annica, Lisa and Helen for help with the group and for showing and loving my dogs <3

In a very hot Borås we had a great day! I showed 5 dogs. 3 LC and 2 SC.
Musse BOB! He has been very lucky so far this year! He is unbeaten male on the shows we have been on – 4 in Sweden; 2 BOB and 2 BOS, and 2 i Germany where he was BOB on both.
At the moment Musse  is Top 1 male in Sweden (have to enjoy the moment as I know it can change fast lol).

Miranda was BF2 – very happy she still is on the top, soon to be 9 years old!
Gerry won open class and ended up as BM4.
Mimmi came EXC4 CK out of 17 bitches in open class.
Brenda is still not happy with dogs behind her, but got EXC3.

We had no breeders group.
Thank you Mathilda for photos and company!
