Autumn exhibition in Tromsø is well over, this year outdoors in August.
One National and one International under varying weather conditions,
on the front page a splashing wet Keeper on his last Junior show :))
It should be noted that the clippering was not good ENOUGH this time on Keeper in my eyes (have no idea where my eyes have been), and with a Tootza in "high season" at home Keeper was not so eazy to work with this weekend.
A big thank you to the judges that still SAW our lovely boy!
This was also the weekend our little Indy debuted in the ring at her first puppy show, and the performance from her ...
...we are so proud! :)
All training in combination with her great carisma did pay off,
and she had a strong competitor which was also very nice!

Keeper has made his debut on show, Nkk international Show in Kristiansand.
The excitement was great, as the girls in the house found it appropriate to start season 3 weeks before the exhibition. In addition, as Keeper veighs more than 8 kg, he had to travel alone in cargo on flight. We should stay a few days with our friends Olaug and Jan along with 2 Giant Schnauzers, Keeper never meet dogs of that size before.
And the little beard of the house Milli (sister of our Chevy) was also in high season when we arrived:))
And then the exhibition which was also a completely new experience for our young Keeper,
in other words very much new at once and expectations were not particularly high with this in mind.
The young gentleman impressed, hugely, and we are so proud of him!
He was happy and wagging his tail coming out of the box at the airport, no signs of stress.
Milli was of course very exciting and he could have imagined some quality time there,
but after 3 weeks of acclimation with the sent at home before we left he was very well behaved also to this.
New people are for him always a pleasure to greet,
and large dogs fascinated to the point that he forgot all about season for a while.
Then at showday, and we have only trained posing here at home.
Keeper was fantastic, one would think he had done this many times before ... he is a born show dog :)
Nkk Kristiansand, Judge Anders Tunhold-Hanssen with 11 entrys s/s
Di Chi's Brash'n Bold - Junior Excellent 1 (in competition with himself and with no ck, that was it for us)
Also everyone's pretty little beard Milli attended along with her owner and handler Olaug Korhonen.
Milli injured her paw around Easter time and therefore has a forefoot shaved from the knee down,
but I have to say I was very impressed when I came down to a perfect rolled coat on the little girl.
Olaug was shown how to do this a year ago, but has had to work on her own until now ...
You did a fantastic job girl, I'm really greatly impressed!
This was the second show for dog and owner, who also trains obedience with ambisions.
Even if it was not the big result, we are very ... very proud of you both, just have a look at how they performed in the ring:)
Di Chi's Can not Stop Smiling - Open Class Very Good
I also finally meet Anneli who also attended the exhibition with her "Hr.Olsen", a handsome Riesenboy :)
Afterwards, it was a really nice evening with shrimp and lots of laughter!
Many thanks to exibitors for all nice comments on our young Keeper ringside and congratulations to all winners!
Thanks to Jan Korhonen, our eminent photographer through the exhibition ... very good work!
Anneli and Emily, Monica and Jan ... so nice to meet, thanks for your company :))
And dear Olaug and Jan, thank you for another wonderful stay with you in beautiful Kristiansand!
