Endo

On December 26th Guido and Endo came to Lelystad.
We picked them up at the trainstation and went straight on to the Zuigerplasbos, a big park where the dogs are allowed off leash. That way everyone is used to eachother and tired..
Chimay, Eoos and Endo had a good time, sadly no pictures, I forgot to take my camera...
Back home Frank made us a fabulous diner :-)

The next mornig I took some pictures from Eoos en Endo:And one more time Endo:

Show Wijchen

Today was the big day for Xin-Feng's Endo and Xin-Feng's Eoos: for the first time in the Youthclass.

Yesterday Guido and Endo came to Lelystad and this morning the alarm went off at half past four! A little after six we went on our way to Wijchen. We arrived early enough to get a nice spot for us and the Chow Chows. Ilone, the owner of Xin-Feng's Demeter, arrived a bit later with two of her Shibas.

Ilone offered to show Eoos. She has a lot of show experience, so we took her offer gladly.

Endo had not his day. His left eye teared a lot and he was tired of the night at our place. The judge J. van Hummelen from België gave him a Good.
Smooth, 9 months. A bit insecure. Irritated eye. Crooked teeth. Straight forelegs. Good bone. Good back. Correct tail. Good angrulation in front and back. Fluent movement.
The other male, Orso van het Bossche Front, got an Excellent, so he won the Youthclass males.
Then Ilone and Eoos went into the ring, Eoos did very well and got an Excellent.Smooth. Nice expression. Good ears. Dark eye. Correct bite. Good front. Straight forelegs. Good feet. Strong bone. Good backline and tail. Standing back legs parallel. Excellent coat. Nice movement..
She won her class and got Best of Breed!!!So Eoos got her first CAC and the first point for Youth Champion.
In Group 5 she was not selected, but we were already so proud of her!

A very good day in Wijchen and thank you Ilone!!

Snow

Yesterday is snowed inLelystad.
Eoos had never seen snow before and was a bit offended that her garden looked so different ;-)

On our morningwalk Eoos was just getting used to the snow when she fell through the ice... She came out on her own and was not completely wet.

Back home I dryed her with a towel and then she went into the garden to play in the snow:
Snow is fun!

Demi did it again!

Last Sunday Demi (Xin-Feng's Demeter) won in Brussels for the third time Best of Breed!
At Ilone's weblog an impression (in Dutch).

Chimay neutered

Today Chimay was neutered.
She gave us two wonderful litters, but both times the delivery was heavy for her. Her heats were long and intense, so we decided neutering was the best option.
All went well and she is sleeping on her dogbed right now.
