Getting PRO ...

Laeken coat is so very easy to maintain, in fact you only need a comb rack and that is about everything to have an always looking good, always ready for the show ring laeken .The same can not be said about shelties. It seems that they need a lot more preparation and gear to be perfect in the show ring and on our home. So after my fantastic birthday gift ( the super hairdryier) i felt that something was missing. After last weekend show, the great result from Quila and seeing Pedro and Claudia (Samspring - Samoyeds) gromming case i thought hummmm i think i need this. So my dear friend Catarina ( that has connections...) got me the new addition to my show gear :) VOILA !!!

I am so happy !!!!!!!!!! So now my old, but always sucessful gromming bag is going to rest for a while :)

The most sweet flower in the world :)

On saturday we had some friends over to tell us all about crufts this year. Bunny decided to make a special desert :)

It was so funny to see the faces when the flower went to the table for dessert.

I must say it was the most sweet dirt ever !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Pre wash IhIhIhIhIh !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A little brag

This weekend it took place the 18th National and the 16th international Vila Franca de Xira shows.

Quila was entered for the first time in intermidiate class and at the two shows she got BOB. GREAT. She won the first two CAC's towards her portuguese champion tittle.

But that was not all. On saturday she was short listed amoung the last 6 in the group and on sunday she got 4th in group. I am so very happy :)

But that was not all. I handle two pugs for my dear friends Ivone and Paim owners of the Ivory Valmosqueiro kennel. It was a pleasure to have the fantastic and always happy Nikita and the little clown Quincy at home for the weekend. Nikita was best female both days and my little Quincy got RBIS puppy on saturday and BIS puppy on sunday.

It was a great weekend.
