CACIB Padova 31.01.2010 - Sighthound Specilaty
We spent a wonderful Sunday at Padova last week, attending the Sighthound Specialty judged by Mr. Andrew Brace (GB). We were a great pack: it was me, my mother Anna, Marco (her partner) and the dogs Bagrijana, Diana and Angie. We met there with Elena and her sister Manuela who brought the charming Dobrinja, her sister Dashkova and Charovnitza. In addition to this large number, Francesca, the owner of Danjar a.k.a. Osip and Chestnut Chief a.k.a. Iljia entered the competition with her two boys.
There were 14 males and 20 females on the catalogue, but unfortunately due to the bad weather a lot didn't manage to come (6 males and 7 females). Nevertheless, me could meet a lot of friends there, like Vida, Andreja Novak, who entered her Vihra and Zoya in champion and intermediate class. There was also Marcella (Araberara Irish Wolfhounds) and her handler Iwonna (Neverine's Newfoundlands).
The show was very succesful, since Chestunt Chief won exc3 in opne class males, Bagrijana achieved exc2 and Charovnitza exc3 (both in open females), and our great Dobrinja won exc1, CAC, CACIB and BOS!!
The handsome Dober Kopp Foti Vodka was Best Male and BOB.
Anyway, after the judgements I found an empty ring and did some training first with our sweet Angie, and then with Diana, who needs some training before starting again to show her (after a little vacation for her, we decided to finish the Slo and Hr Ch., since she seems a lot less stressed by the shows' atmosphere now).
