A Christmas Poem From the Dog

Eyeing hydrants, digging holes,
Drinking from the toilet bowls . . .

Playing games of "tug-o'-war,"
Putting scratch marks on your door . . .

Rolling over, playing dead,
Getting dog hair on your bed . . .

Scaring folks who bring the mail,
Chasing cars, as well as tail . . .

Barking, begging, heeling, howling,
And also, on occasion, growling . . .

Romping through a field of grass,
Sneezing, snoozing, passing gas . . .

Sniffing everything I see,
Peeing on the Christmas tree . . .

Woofing, wagging, chomping, chewing . . .
These are things I sure love doing!

(But I'll try not to do that tree thing . . .)

Happy Holidays!

On Saturday 11.8. was in Sweden nearby Stockholm WSSK club show. Males was judged by David Howarth, kennel Arkview and bitches was judged by Jane Howarth, kennel Arkview. They both together judged BIS. There were 160 entries in the show.

Usko won champion class, was best male (BM-1) and was finally BIS1 !!!!!

I appreciate this win very much because Usko´s recovery has been wonderful and we could have such a good results in short period of time. I really didn´t wait it to happen so fast ( 4 months from surgery). Me, my husband Jukka and Usko have been doing a lot work to make this all happen.

Here is what judge said about Usko:

Exc dog, good head, correct eye, good neck, good ribcage, wide and deep shortcoupled strong quarters which he used well on the move, good topline and tailset, moved really well away from the judge.

On Sunday 12.8. we were in Askersund´s all breed show. Males was judged by Ewa Nielsen from Sweden and bob was judged by Cindy Petterson from Sweden. Usko was best male (BM-1) and BOS.

Unfortenately I don´t have any photos from shows because I travelled alone and using camera is little difficult during the show.

Some of Adamant´s Wind Of Change Arvo´s puppies was in puppy show on 12.8. in Helsinki. Wildomar´s Fading Memories was BOB and BIG-2 and Wildomar´s Fiction Oh No was BOS. Congratulations to breeders Sanna and Sami and of course to owners of these beautiful puppies!
