It has been a busy couple of weeks for us, but we have some news for the fans and friends. last weekend I had the pleasure to judge the Junior Handling Final competitionf of Finland, in one of my favourite cities, Helsinki.

I would like to thank to all of the 20 top handlers who entered my ring. They have done a wonderful job and there should be many more placements for all of them. Our sport is growing well with these young people, passionate for dogs and shows. It really was a pleasure to judge them. Last but not least, thank you to the Finnish Kennel club for making the trip enjoyable and a wonderful memoire.

Here are the winners:

ThePedigree Cup evening began with two judges judging each group champions and choosing 16 dogs out of the whole number almost 400 dog entered. It was Mrs. Zdena Jilkova and Mrs. Inese Pablaka from Latvia. The judging in the pre-ring was very fast and the judges did not show the slightest sign of any prediction of who they put up for the finals.


..competing in the Pedigree Cup with Mrs. Ridarcikova choosing the red to be the winner! All three judges voted for us!

We went on to enjoy the dinner with friends and were waiting for the 16 champions to be announced. I was really excited and happy to hear our number being called out. And at that moment I thought this is great! Never would I have thought we would have gone all the way.

Ally, just a few days before her 2nd Birthday (© Tereza Subertova)

After a short break we decided to join a great trip to the Zagreb Winter shows in Croatia. My good friend Ingrid Dedkova has just bought a new motorhome and we could not miss it. The comfort it brings is amazing and reminds me a bit of my work months in America that changed my life. The trip to Zagreb has been a lot of fun with good friends and some very nice results.

We are a little late with the updates on the latest weekend and shows. Every dog fancier enjoys the World shows every year. We were lucky this show was a local one and took place just a few minutes from our place in the city of Bratislava.

The showing weekend started for us on Saturday at the Tibet Dog Europe Specialty that took place under an outside tent in the worst possible weather. (Actually, I am still trying to get over the cold I took that day.) Ally, Ch. Orlane´s All Too Easy, was showed in the champion class and even though she was the youngest of the competitors, she was awarded second in the class with res. CAC under Mr. Rune Lysgaard from Norway. Thank you!

The weekend trip to zagreb International dogshows started with drama and my forgotten passport. Croatia is not a member of the EU yet and we need to pass the borders with identity control. I was about 120 km from home when realized my passport is not in my bag. I had no other chance but turn back, drive home and all the way back to dogshow. Fortunately, I arrived in a good time. The beautiful city of Zagreb greeted us with a lovely spring weather... so there really was a good finish after a bad start, in the end.

"Ally" a.k.a. Orlane´s All Too Easy was showed in the junior class and went on to win 2 x Best of Breed Junior. On Saturday judged by Mrs. Ligita Zake from Latvia and on Sunday by the breed specialist Mrs. Eeva Resko from Finland. Thank you both very much!

19.1.2009

We had a fun showing at two International shows this past weekend. It was the first show weekend after a break we took during the holidays. And therefore we were looking forward to them even more.

On Saturday, lhasas were judged by well respected breed specialist from Finland, Mr. Juha Kares who awarded Ally with BOB Junior with her first Slovenian CAJC and a very nice critique stating Orlane´s All Too Easy a.k.a. Ally "makes a perfect picture". Thank you! In the final BIS Junior ring we made it to the last cut of few out of a full ring of juniors. Ally put up a wonderful presentation.

12.1.2009

The first shows this year are just behind the corner. Meanwhile we added the "Just For Fun" site in the gallery section. Enjoy and come back for the more news!

 

1.1.2009

Today we added a new picture on "Ally", as well as a new gallery section on her site with a gallery "On The Move" to start with.

 

What a year...

The new year is coming up and it brings a lot of memories, lots of feelings come back looking through the pictures. I remember year or so ago I was just looking at the puppy pictures that Mrs. Linda Kendall Smith from Orlane had sent me. I already felt that one of them is going to be the special one. Just a few months later I realized which one...

I feel very fortunate to be able to own Ally, Orlane´s All Too Easy. My dream dog, the lhasa I wanted since I first read about the fabulous dogs of Orlane. She is a dream girl, very lady-like and always with the matters of a Princess.. well, almost always.

Her happy temperament has been a joy to live with. She loves to play, enjoys her toys and enjoys attention. And of course, she is a shoe freak, but which lady is not?

Ally entered the showrings in the September 2008. Just 9 months old, she won her first Best of breed over an adult competitors. Until today she opened several Junior Championships, finished in three coutries, won a Junior Best In Show. And the list continues with a bookshelf eaten, several squeeky toys torn up and many magazines read through and through... Last but not least, one heart won over!

May the next year be at least as happy as 2008.
Thank you all for support, Thank You Linda and Thank You Ally!

Happy New Year to everyone!
