NITRA International, Slovakia - 06.06.2009

 

Competing in Slovakia - never been there before with Danka. I showed Odin 4 times in there, first time in 1998 still in junior class, she was junior winner then. Then a clubshow for gundog breeds where she went on to win Best In Show. Third time was Eurodog in 2003 - ending up with res.CAC. And finally autumn 2004 when she already was a veteran but shown in champion class under an American lady who gave her the CACIB title in big competition.
With these nice memories in mind, I entered her to the special CACIB show called Grand Prix Winner Show, held in Nitra. The judge for the day was Mr. Leszek Siejkowski from Poland.
For some reason I was as nervous as a beginner already the evening before... Arriving at the show it just got worse, seeing the results of my friends in other gundog breeds... As a nerv wreck entering the ring... But winning the class! Oh, happiness! In again for best bitch, winning CACIB! Even more happiness :-) Worth all that running (LOT!!!) in the ring! 
A big thank you to the organizing team in Nitra: everything was perfect! No queuing at the parking places, no queuing at the entrance, nice big rings with carpets and decoration. Excellent coffee :-) Well done!
