... has arrived! We are happy with Marita about HD A2 and ED 0/0!

Congratulations to Akina and Patrick, who have passed the guide dog exam (VDH) last week with 57 of 60 points! And this in spite of the fact that the miss was in standing heat and surely had other things in mind. Nevertheless, she was very concentrated, which of course particularly pleases us. Dear Patrick, good job, we are proud of you both!

Akito was the first to be x-rayed, with a pleasing result: he is HD A2/B2 and ED 0/0. The x-ray dates for our other A-litter dogs have already been fixed. We are excited and keep fingers crossed.

Congratulations to Akemi! Yesterday she passed the character test with flying colors! Great job!

We finally give an update regarding our raisins with triple big congratulations to Aimi, Akito and Akemi! Aimi was winner in terms of finding at her companion dog test A+B (LCD) and therefore measures up to her sister Akemi, who already was awarded "winner of the day" at a companion dog trial in spring. Akito passed his hunt test with living ducks with credits and now is an official hunting dog who is accompanying his dog handler Raffi on real hunts. The third congratulation goes to Akemi who achieved her second "excellent" in junior class together with a really nice judge report. Dear Sandra, dear Raffi, dear Marita, we send you our heartiest congratulations on your success and are happy that you have so much fun with your raisins! Keep it up!

Today we got the certificate: Ayita is now an official "German Champion VDH"! We are very proud and happy of having finally achieved the title.

Last Saturday, Ayita was able to really rock the special dog show in Hoisdorf. She won the open class, was awarded "Best Dog" and even "Best of Breed"! For a change, I was very nervous during the show - as this was our last requirement for Ayita to achieve the title "German Champion VDH" and we got it! Now Ayita has all of the five qualifying requirements and we already applied for the title at VDH. I am very proud of our "champion mouse". This was the first time I was not able to present Ayita on a show due to my pregnancy – my dummy trainer Petra Lockhoff filled in for me and presented Ayita perfectly well – a big thank you for that! You can find the result details and some photos under "show".

On 11th June the second reunion of our A-litter (being already 13 months old now) took place. All of our four "pups" and even daddy Towar from Austria took the chance to see how brothers and sisters (respectively sons and daughters) have grown. This was also an overwhelming experience for us breeders! First we had a dummy training together, which was led by Petra Lockhoff (Tingledales Golden Retriever) and which gave Dana Geithner the possibility of taking wonderful photos. Afterwards we had an enjoyable barbecue in our garden with taking more photos, hairdressing dogs and just talking. It was a perfect day and I can only say again that I am very happy and proud of our first litter, having developed to very healthy and amazing young dogs. A heartful thank you to our puppy parents who really encourage and shape our four raisins. Keep going - we are already looking forward to our next reunion! You can find a photo gallery of our litter reunion on our litter page and we also updated our kennel galleries. Have fun with our new photos!

I must admit that it has never taken so long so far to put online the latest show results. This is even more astonishing as Ayita was very successful on both days in Kassel in December 2010! I am very ashamed and promise to deliver new results for the next show in time. Now there is only one last qualifying requirement left for achieving the title "VDH champion". Keep fingers crossed so that we can bring the title home this year!
