Mauno and I debyted in Kotka obedience trial. Unfortunately we lost
our 1st prize already in the first task: Mauno´s inside clock was 5
seconds ahead off judges time and he decided to stand up from long
down. Our result was finally 134 points and 3rd prize. Judge: Reija
Puolakka.
Sit for examination/Luoksepäästävyys 8
Long down/Paikallamakuu 0
Heel on leash/Seuraaminen kytkettynä 9
Heel free/Seuraaminen vapaana 8,5
Down during heel off leash/Liikkestä maahanmeno 0 (completely my
mistake...)
Recall/Luoksetulo 10
Stand during heel off leash/Liikkeestä seisominen 10
Jump and stand/Vapaahyppy 8,5
General impression 8
All together not a bad result with about 5 times training... Mauno has
really showed an excellent potential as obedience dog. Thank you owner
Annemari for letting me train with this awesome fellow!!!

I
have been lazy with updates...
Uno is doing fine. We have been more active in obedience training
lately and Uno has showed very nice development and motivation. I have
also started to train more serious obedience with Mauno and we are
about to do our debyt on 5th November in Kotka obedience trials.
Uno has been busy when searching guys from the woods and from ruin
track. He has done extremely good work in every training session. I
guess we have found the adabtable amount of "power and brake".
Lure coursing page finally
designed. Few links added to
Links

One
new experience for Uno and me: we hit an elk last night when we were
coming from my parents house. Both of us are okay, I got quite many
cuts and quite much glass to my face and three of my theeth got
injured but nothing more serious happend to me. Uno didn´t even got a
scratch. Unfortunately I can not say the same about the elk or my car.
Both are dead. Rest in peace my sweet little VW Beetle. And an elk
that I didn´t know from before.
I was a bit suprised about Unos behaviour: he was very calm and happy
after the crush (well - a bit cold becouse we stood almoust half an
hour by the highway and waited policemen to come...) Thank you nice
unknown drivers who stopped and called to police and helped me
with the warning triange, my bleeding face and warning the other
drivers. And thank you nice polimen for taking Uno home and me to the
hospital.

Two
searching training sessions behind after long summer break. Both times
Uno did excellent work; first time in the woods and second time on
ruin track. Uno worked with extra high motivation, fast and exactly.
When the last guy was found he ran away from the harness and tried to
found some more (Go training break!) Few pictures from the ruins added
to
searching gallery.

Blood tracking with Uno. We did about 200 meter long track with two
angles for very long time. Uno remembered the name of the game very
quicky (at very first he thought I wanted him to search the guy from
the woods...) and did a great job.

Searching training with Uno in Lelu. We took three "ready guys" for
Uno and once again after little hanging around during the first search
Uno worked very nicely and with high motivation. He also did a very
good expressions in every hide.

Searching training with Uno in Saksankangas (army training area). On "take
one" Uno was just hanging around the woods, sniffing all the
interesting spring smells and marking his area so I took him back to
car to think wheather he wanted to train or not. After half an hour
thinking and board meeting with himself we tried "take two". Obviosly
he had decided he after all really wanted to train. We took two
"guys" to him and he worked fast, precisely and with high motivation.
Quite quickly he found both of the guys. So nice train after difficult
beginning.

In
Latvian Winner Show the expert for us was Mr. Vilmos Kardos, HUN and
Ridgeback entry was 19. Uno didn`t took any stress for yesterdays nice
results and showed as usual - cool and calmly. His result was a nice
suprise: CH EXC1, BM-1, CAC, CACIB and finally BOB. Also
Uno got two new titles: Latvian Champion and Latvian Winner 2006. Not
a bad trip at all I would say.
Saija´s bullmastiff Bullcastle´s Lady Jane "Myytti" got EXC and
placed 4th in her class.

Uno
took part to Speciality Show for FCI group VI in Riga. The show was
held in the same place than Winner Show so I was able to get the two
shows with one trip. The expert for Speciality Show was Ms. Rita
Kadine-Skadina from Lithuania and Ridgeback entry was 13.
Uno`s result was CH EXC2, BM-2. (CAC was so close...)
The day wasn`t that bad also for
other dogs with us. In Latvian Winner 2006 Show Saija´s Welsh Corgi
Pembrokes litterally took it all: Avalance "Rulla" CH EXC1, BM-1,
CAC, CACIB, BOB whitch gave "Rulla" Latvian Champion & Latvian
Winner 2006 titles. And Rullas mother, 11 year old - everyoung "nitro
clubber" Archness Bali Bonaly "Eemi" CH EXC1, BB-1, CAC, CACIB, BOS.
Also Eemi got two new titles. Huge congratulations Saija and Kari!
BUT the day wasn´t still over for our gang and there was more to come:
In Jack Russel terrier ring Annemari´s little "Mauno" - Miimoksen
Bolboshoenus made a great win with wonderful result:
OPEN EXC1, BM-1, CAC, CACIB, BOB. This win also gave Mauno the
prestigious title "Latvian Winner 2006".
Have to admit that the the days yield put a little pressure on Uno and
Myytti...
