Hannover Garbsen


  • This weekend we were in Hannover Garbsen for the German Basenji Speciality. It was HOT, very HOT! Mirtillo actually dropped dead in the ring waiting for the other male pups to be judged. :D (We have that on video :D)
    Mirtillo did the best he (and I) could and he was third (out of three :)) with a Promising. The judge was Lisa Tyler and this was her report:

    Lovely eye, wrinkle, earset, little long. Good feet, lovely coat and colour. Good angles both ends. Very narrow, all through at present needs to fill out.

    We are very happy with the report :)

    On sunday we could enjoy the sight of running basenjis. Mirtillo was still too young, so he was there to watch and play with the other non-running b's.

    Here some pics.

    Lovely Belle (and owner ;)):

    During the sweepstakes:

    At BF: 'I did ok, right daddy??'

    Meeting new friends:

    Chilling (There was a lot of that: he slept for 23 hours the first day):

    Another successful weekend :)


  • Lovely group of b's.
    Thanks for sharing.


  • Looks like a great day! Good Boy, Murtillo!

  • To Bait or not to Bait, that is the Question...

    I've tried bait and no bait in the ring. I think bait works better for Logan, but not for me. He likes it and responds to it well, but as a new handler it's a pain in the butt. I know what I'm expected to do. Doing it once in the ring is hard. I get caught up in the minute and then forget what I'm supposed to do the next. I once stacked Logan backwards on the table. D'oh! Logan is SUPER food driven and he knows if I have cookies in my pocket. That's all he'll pay attention to. Jumping on the handler is frowned upon. Yes, I know training and time will cure it. Not there yet. Too many hobbies. Showing, breeding, MGBs, stereos, astronomy, motorcycles, family, friends, travel, house, etc. I need more time.

    @Roux I have to live with the dogs 24/7. The judge sees them for maybe 3 minutes. My preference tops his/hers !

    @cashh - Just curious, did you have your dog excused? Typically it is because of being lame in the ring or not letting the judge to exam the dog?
