More pics from last weekend, we also had Roxanna with us tho not entered as she is finished already. Here they are, our trio, enjoying themselves :)
See lot more pictures :
Weekend news turned up that cool as two youngsters from our latest litter, 17 month old, got their first CACIB’s this past weekend – SMOKEY ( JCH Al Khabara Let Me Be Your Sensation ) at Adazi I nternational Show in Latvia, under pouring heavy rain and
ROCKY ( Al Khabara Let The Sensation Rock) from International show in Ransäter, Sweden
as the res-CACIB’s turn into CACIBs for both of them.
Both boys opened their International Championship plus Rocky opened his Swedish Championship with his SWE CAC.
What a pity we do not have any picture from Latvia because the rain and flashing was that bad and my hands were busy with holding up the tent and grooming dogs for Alex to take into ring one by one.
But I have only these few moving pictures and little video clip of Maasu, who did not dare of rain, but as heavier it rained ( and you can hear how heavily it poured down when watching the video below this post) than more fed up she also got and she refused to go inside of judges tent. She is stubborn – haha – but she likes to move and show off.
Took our one year old pups and their Grandmom Grace ( 11 yo) out to mirrored training room yesterday to have some fun. Grace was so happy and running around happily, what a pity we can’t take her to the shows into veteran classes because she has hair clipped short under belly and from sides due two sided mastecomy surgeries she had lately which she recovered so well and is now full of energy and joyful retirement days. I believe that her condition would let her to offer competition to much younger ones in shows. Grace ( CIB CH Kingsleah Amazing Grace is mother of our two large litters and still going strong, very happy of my darling Gracie.
Did’nt have the plan to take photos, but couldn’t resist to take some snapshots. We had Phoebe, Smokey and Roxanna with us. Interesting is that Roxanna has the very same personality as is her Grandmom Gracie only in different colours. Can’t stop wondering this enough, once a clown, always clown and not a dull day with Roxanna. Phoebe is more ladylike, so she would never act like monster, both are sweet as can be but same time different.
What a wonderful place it is PetCity Arena in Tallinn and the the flooring is best ever, safe and not slippery. Here is more photos of our joyful pack:
Roxanna (Al Khabara Lovin’ Tiger Lily) and Smokey (Al Khabara Let Me Be Your Sensation ) both took LV JCAC’s and Crufts Qualification ’17 today at International Show in Riga, Latvia 19.03.2016.
What a fun they had and enjoyed themself in showring
Both are from our L-litter by Halo and Lilli
We thank judge Rasma Ergle!
Unfortunately no photos of them because Alex was alone and handling
Now we are waiting summer and big grassy showrings :)
Smokey and Roxanna were today first time in junior class in Estonia, both got EST Junior CAC’s and Smokey was BOB junior, Roxanna BOS junior. Both were placing in breed ring, Smokey Best male 4th and Roxanna Best female 4th, both got their first titles with their names:
Tallinn Winter Cup JW-2016 Al Khabara Let Me Be Your Sensation and
Tallinn Winter Cup JW-2016 Al Khabara Lovin’ Tiger Lily .
They traditionally doing everything in synchronous, and this show was not exception – in autumn they took Reserv Puppy BIS both in same weekend in all breed show, aren’t they funny buddies ? Not to mention how fun it is to be in shows with them, just can’t wait the outdoor shows with big grassy rings !
We also had Phoebe, their littersister, with us – she was not entered but Phoebe enjoyed the indoor show first time. Looks like camera loves this girl, we got lot photos of Phoebe but in some reason not a one of Roxanna from this day. Phoebe get her own post later today, stay tuned with us :)
Our babies now 10 month old and first time out in junior classes at 30.01.2016 International Show, Kaunas Winter -2016, Lithuania
Smokey (Al Khabara Let Me Be Your Sensation ) took LT Junior CAC Have no better/sharper photos than that, but so many asked to see how the babies growing, so here he is pictured :)
Roxanna, (Al Khabara Lovin’ Tiger Lily) : got Excellent 2 in Junior class.
Roxanna looks yet like puppy and acting like a puppy :) But how we would dare to take all this fun away from her ? :)
From photos we can see that she already knows her value and shows off like a queen, can’t wait the summer shows with large grassy rings to take her in. This one in Kaunas for sure was the smallest size of ring I ever seen. 3 steps each side. But some pictures….not very sharp tho.
Smokey enjoyed himself anyway, like always :)
Thank you to judge Mrs Monika Mikulienė/Lithuania

So many emotions in these two photos!
Smokey was captured at ringside when he met Kerttu with his plan to share puppy kiss :)
