Rally Novice x 3 / Rally Nybörjare x 3

I helgen så var det dags, med för lite träning i bagaget gav vi oss iväg på tävling i rallylydnad. Min vän och tillika delägare kom med Stanegate Happy Go Lucky ”Happy” och jag hade anmält Jocose Plaesure you Can’t Measure ”Vega”. Modigt värre eftersom vi bara hann få in 5 träningar före det var dags för tävling!
Där var en nybörjarklass på lördag och en på söndag, båda hundarna skötte sig utmärkt på lördagen och hade höga poäng, därmed var de två första kvalificerande resultaten i hamn. Söndagen var svårare, banan var rolig och hade mest moment som hundarna kunde men denna dag luktade konstgräsmattan alldeles ljuvlig och Vega var 5poäng under godkänt resultat. Caroline och Happy fick åter kvalificerande poäng som hade varit ännu högre om de hade fått samla sig lite mer och inte vara hund nummer ett ut på banan. Så stolt över våra krulliga som skötte sig så bra trots att vi begärde väldigt mycket av dem.


This weekend it was time — with too little training under our belts, we headed off to a rally obedience competition. My friend and co-owner came with Stanegate Happy Go Lucky ”Happy”, and I had entered Jocose Plaesure you Can’t Measure ”Vega”. Pretty bold, considering we only managed five training sessions before the competition!There was a beginner class on Saturday and one on Sunday. Both dogs did excellently on Saturday and scored high points, securing their first two qualifying results. Sunday was tougher — the course was fun and mostly had exercises the dogs knew, but the artificial turf smelled absolutely divine that day, and Vega ended up 5 points below a qualifying score. Caroline and Happy earned another qualifying score, which could have been even higher if they’d had a bit more time to compose themselves and not been the first dog on the course.

So proud of our curly ones who did so well, even though we asked a lot from them.

We are looking for a forever home to Jocose Pitter Patter, ”Clara”. I would keep her myself but since we already have several dogs at home I would rather find her a home that can give her more time than I can. This pup has lots of potential and I hope that she, when grown up, can be a piece in the breeds future. With that being said I could consider keeping her in a joint ownership with someone familiar with the breed. So if you think you are the right person for Clara don’t hesitate to get in contact!

Clara – FOR SALE

Proudly presenting the little sassy girl Clara who looks for a forever home!

The Chocolate Bar litter has been an incredible success! Inspired by their amazing results, we paired their father with their grandmother, Splinter, resulting in four wonderful puppies. Clara is one of those four and, with a promising look for show, she is still searching for a loving and active home where she can truly shine!

JUMP FOR JOY!

This past weekend our lovely Joy was given the blue ribbon that gave her Best in Group 2 on the big show in Överkalix, Sweden. The rain was pouring down in the breed ring and I could barely see where I was going but Matti Tuominen who was our judge for the day saw us and awarded Joy the BOB and then BIG 2 in the main ring. I’m so happy! Don’t really know what to say or write, so I let the pictures speak.


Förra helgen i Överkalix så fick vår vackra Joy den blå rosetten som tilldelas andra placeringen i gruppen. Regnet öste ned i rasringen och jag kunde knappt se var jag sprang men Joy satte alla tassar rätt och vår doamre för dagen, Matti Tuominen, såg vad hon gick för och gav henne därmed BIR följt av BIG 2 i stora ringen. Jag är så glad! Vet inte riktigt vad jag ska skriva så jag låter bilderna tala.

Fauske, Norway/Norge x3

In the beginning of August there was a 3 days of show in Fauske, that is just a couple of hours from our home. I usually just enter to the ones that have big* CAC but this time I decided to enter all 3 days and to bring both Joy and Riva. This was a really good decision and we had 3 wonderful days and nice results.

Day 1: Spaniel specialty
Joy BB1, BOB, BIS 1 Working and BIS 3
Riva CK, BB2, (small) CAC, BIS2 junior
Judge: Lars Hjelmtvedt, Norway

Day 2: Nordic dog show

Day 3: International dog show
Joy BB1, CACIB, BOB
Riva EX1
Judge: Espen Engh, Norway

Both girls behaved excellent, but I was extra impressed with Riva. She really had a blast, she just loves people and she took all the chances she could get to snuggle up with someone or try to jump in to their lap. Not even the judges was spared. The temperament on this girl is just fantastic!

*Norway have small and big CAC, you can only get your champion title if you have at least one big CAC, and it’s also just one big CAC that is needed to get the Norwegian champion title of your dog is already show champion in another country.


I början av augusti så var där 3 utställningar i Fauske som bara ligger några timmar hemifrån. Jag brukar bara anmäla till de utställningar i Norge som erbjuder storcert men denna gång så beslutade jag för att anmäla till alla 3 dagarna och då anmäla både Joy och Riva. Det skulle visa sig vara ett bra drag då vi hade underbara dagar och väldigt fina resultat.

Båda flickorna skötte sig utmärkt men jag måste erkänna att jag vara extra imponerad med Riva. Hon hade verkligen superroligt, eftersom hon älskar människor så tog hon alla chanser hon kunde att mysa med närmaste som accepterade lite tät kontakt med en IWS och försökte hoppa upp på de som kom nog nära. Inte ens domarna kom undan. Temperamentet på denna hund är helt fantastiskt!temperament on this girl is just fantastic!

*Norge har små och stora cert, du kan bara få campionattiteln genom att erhållit minst ett stort cert, och om hunden redan är utställningschampion i ett annat land så är det endast ett stort norskt cert som behövs för att få ut den norska championtiteln.
