FUOCHI DI TARANIS - Celtic Reenactment

Passed a lovely week-end with the Celtic Reenactment Association AES TORKOI at the Celtic Festival "I FOUCHI DI TARANIS" (1-3/7/2011). Well, it surely was quite a difference compared to my usual dog show week-end... the campfire, tents, weapons, costumes... and though this was my first time, the group made me feel completely at ease, including me in the whole aspect of the celtic daily life... THANK YOU!!

A few pictures will follow, just to give you an idea of what being a celt meant

Here I am, back from Ljubljana, Slovenia, from a satisfying week-end. I had to handle a borzoi (Adaweya) from the kennel where Bagrijana comes from ( Ca' Frosco Kennel ), and she got excellent both days at all three shows!! the second day she also got CAC. She is quite a beautiful type of bitch... a little bit small for my taste but beautiful. Lovely head and eye, nice fluid movement, good angulations and a wonderful coat. I had a great time and I would like to thank all the friends, breeders, handlers traders and sellers who made these days special! And I would also like to thank PETIITPETHAUS , the general sponsor of the show, who made wonderful collars for this occasion, and who let me help at their stand, spending time with friends and having fun. if you wish to know the results of the show, click HERE Unfortunately I don't have any photos of these two days, but I have some of Adaweya.
