Demi BOB in Eindhoven

Yesterday was the Dog Show in Eindhoven.

Demi (Xin-Feng's Demeter) was entered, for this was her first chance to become Dutch Champion,as she turned 27 months in January. In the Netherlands dogs have to be at least 27 months when they get the last point for their championship.

And Demi did it again: she was Best of Breed and earned her last point to become Dutch Champion!!!
Congratulations Ilone & Ben, we are very proud, Demi is the first Chow Chow we bred who became Dutch Champion!

More photos at Ilone's weblog (in Dutch).

Chinka (Xin-Feng's Embla)

Today we visited Chinka (Xin-Feng's Embla), and her family in Almere.

A few days ago I received some great pictures of Chinka in the snow:

But seeing her in real was more fun, Chinka was very happy to see us.
We decided it would be nice to walk the three Chow Chows together and take some pictures. Sadly it started to rain when we went out, so the walk was cold and short. One of the pictures turned out well enough, from to left to right Chinka, Eoos and Chimay.

I think Chinka looks a lot like her half-sister Demi (Xin-Feng's Draupadi), here pictured at the Young Chows Day of the Dutch Chow Chow Club, September 2008:
