 The weather was awesome and so was our day. Judge was very experienced Leila Kärkäs and she was super lovely with dogs. She also had nice sense of humor and I think judges like her makes this hobby more fun!
 
 Well, like I said earlier, our day was great and Dumle was BOB with CACIB. He was also shortlisted on TOP7 in group competition.

"Wonderful wholeness. Good proportions. Strong head with good stop. Good topline, good ribcage and forechest. Well balanced allover, good bones, good loins and tail. Little close from behind, but excellent sidemoves. Excellent coat. Lovely temperament."

Training with Basti

Junior seems to be spicy little fella. He is full of energy, loves to fight with me and is 100% pure workaholic!
In the video Basti is seven months of age. My expectations are quite high with him.

Basti BOB-puppy 18.5.2013 Mynämäki all breed show

Kävimme molempien poikien voimin pyörähtämässä Mynämäen kehässä. Basti sanalla sanoen hurmasi Marianne Holmin ja arvostelu olikin äärimmäisen kaunis. Niinpä Basti KP:n myötä oli ROP-pentu.
Dumle sai tällä kertaa tyytyä sileään ERInomaiseen sen ollessa valioluokan toinen, kuitenkin erittäin hienolla arvostelulla. Paljon huonommallakin arvostella on SA irronnut, mutta tässä kai se tämän harrastuksen jännitys piilee, koskaan et tiedä... Kiitämme tuomaria päivän tuloksistamme.

Basti BIS4 Puppy

Basti came 7 months on 9.5. and at the very same day we headed in Helsinki where he entered in show ring. Judge was always sunny and so stylish Elina Haapaniemi. She said lots of beautiful things about my junior so what can I say but Thank You Mrs Haapaniemi. Basti was BOB & BIS4 puppy and he was acting like he was born in show ring. He seems to be very self-conscious character.

Judge: Elina Haapaniemi, Finland

 "7 months. Excellent presented. Very promising puppy. Very well prepaired for the show. Excellent head, eyes and expression. Good bite. Excellent body, excellent rear. Excellent topline. Excellent side movements. Front movements still developing. Right kind of type and proportions."
