BOB, BIG-1, BIS-4

Judge: Mikael Nilsson, Sweden

Agility.ax arranged their annual Dog Show and I attended Ares again to gain more experience on the table. It was the first show since Corona started. 

It was so nice to see all the dogs and to be able to participate in a dog show again. So happy with Ares how he showed himself in the ring. We focused on free-stacking which he did very well <3

BB-2, NORD RES-CAC

I just love the atmosphere at Helsinki Winner. This year was the ultimate test for Kajsa and me. Last time we visited the shows, she was a puppy and the experience from that was not a good one at all. She thought it was scary and her tail was down and she was afraid. After that show it has taken me years to build her up again. So this time I thought she was ready for the shows and she was. I had Mikael Nilsson to groom her before the show and I put all into it that I could. Kajsa showed herself amazingly good with full confidence and I could relax and enjoy to handle her. 

​

This show is one of the most prestigeful shows of the year in Finland and Kajsa ended up as second best female. I was so extremely proud of my little queen as she is <3

Judge: Dragana Bujisic Vasiljevic

RES-CAC

It was quite an intersting show were many poodle owners were not too happy with the judges critics. So I had no expectations when we entered the ring. When he won open class and got excellent with CK i was more than happy. He ended up without placement in the Best male final but there were also 5 champion males so the competition was huge. Ares is getting better and better standing on the table so I am happy with that. It was also very nice to meet Daidai Born This Way from our second litter and she enterd her first show as 9 month old. She still needs a bit more maturity but still a good start with excellent. 

Judge: Susanne Nilsson, Sweden

RES-CACIB, BB-2

Kajsa behaved so well at the show. Just happy and following my lead. She got excellent critics from poodle specialist and judge Toshinori Omura. Very beautiful head, good feet, good coat, good topline, balance and tailset. Good movement and very stylish.

August 23, 2019

CAC, CQ, BM-3

Daidai Ares took his third CAC after two champions. He also won intermediate class. In total there were 12 poodles in this show. Judge: Pedro Sanches Delerue

​

Pity he was not 2 years, because then we would have had a champion, but let's hope it will come after his 2 year birthday.

BOB, GROUP-2nd

Agility.ax arranged their annual Dog Show and I attended Ares again to gain more experience on the table. It was an exciting competition since there were 3 males attending in dwarfs and I was lucky that Ares was best male and best of breed. Finally he ended up Group 2 after Mikael Nilssons beautiful medium poodle "Ninija"

Ares behaved well on the table this time but could have given more in the ring. 

July 27, 2019

CAC, CQ, BM-2

Daidai Ares took his second CAC just one year after his first and almost at the same place. I was a bit nervous since it was his last measuring but judge Vesa Lehtonen said he was 34 cm, so happy about that, so now he is confirmed a miniature poodle. 

​

CQ, BB-3

Caspian Line's Look at Me was 3d best bitch. I wasn't really happy about her presentation, since I put so much time on Ares. Just after Ares she was about to enter the ring so her grooming was not the best. Anyhow she behaved perfectly on the table, perhaps also taken by the 32 degrees heat.

Latvian Winner 2019

Latvian champion
Crufts qualifying

BOS, CACIB
 

So happy, happy, that Caspian Line's Look at Me "Kajsa" got her  second Winner title for this year Latvian Winner under Judge Vondros Otakar (CZ) also she became Latvian champion. 

It was only Finnish dogs in the competition a bit strange on a competition far away. 

Anyhow a great weekend and great results and first time show in Latvia.

BIS-4, BIG-1 Daidai Ares

BIG-4 Caspian Line's Look at Me

BIR, HP Daidai Black Velvet
 

Our ownbred Daidai Ares ended up BIS-4 and beated his own mother in the group who got BIG-4. Daidai Black Velvet did her first show and was shown by her fosterer Eva Enges, who did a splendid job. Daidai Black Velvet got HP and BOB. So happy for all involved and special thanks to Lillan that showed Ares to BIG-1. Unofficial shows are so fun and relaxed a good day in the sun.

April 20, 2019

SE V-19, BOS, CACIB

Judge: Anna-Lena Munkvall-Rylander (Swe)

Oh I am so happy, one of our goals have been achieved. Our first title Swedish Winner is a dream come true. Kajsa was out for the first time after her second litter and 7 month since last show in Eckerö and did so well. I was pleased with her presentation and it was like we were back in old shoes. 

It was an easy trip back home from Sundvall despite the Easter traffic rush :-)

September 29, 2018

BOB, CACIB, BOB-Junior

What an amazing Sunday, a day I will not forget. Kajsa took her first BOB under Franco Gatti, Italy. I have waited for this moment so long and it has been a goal to finally be there, Best of Breed :-) I am happy for Ares also who was best junior. Also I jumped in and showed Maija and Tuija Kärkis Kudos Berit, since she had both her dogs in the BOB/BOS final. Emelie Hanströms medium poodle Ziva that i had cut and prepared, I showed to BOB-veteran. All this ended up in 3 finals in the main ring, so hectic. I could not show Ziva in the big ring since there were too little time. Anyhow we didn't have any success there but the poodles really did their best and that it what counts. I am so thrilled that I reached the goals I had for the weekend :-)

September 15, 2018

BOB, GROUP-1st

Agility.ax arranged their annual Dog Show and I attended only Ares, so he would get some more experience and training. He is still a bit jumpy in ring and he is a bit reluctant to stand on the table. Though he was quite ok this time. Judge: Jan Törnblom, Sweden

July 20, 2018

CAC, CQ, BM-2

I am so thrilled. Daidai Ares got his first CAC only as 9 month old, at Helsingin Kesänäyttely. Judge Maija Mäkinen gave him so wonderful critics. I feel so proud of our first bred poodle that it turned out so well.

​

The weather was so sunny and hot, but Ares was so cool and did what he had to do. When it all was over (he knew exactly), he made happy jumps as a true poodle <3

May 26, 2018

BIS - 1 puppy :-) and 2nd BB

I was just crying some tears, Ares first BIS for judge Gyula Zarkozy, Hungary at the poodle speciality show in Hammarskog. What a feeling and how well he behaved :-) So proud over our first litter that have turned out so well.

​

Also Kajsa did so well today and I was so happy with her groom. She didn't reach the whole way but to second best bitch.

​

Kajsa did so well at this show, I could really feel when we were about to enter the big ring that she wanted to give it all :-) Thank you to judge Helene Nilsson who appreciate our dogs. She said that she could take Kajsa with her home. She also loved her offsprings Ares and Apollon and said it was quality all over :-)

February 03, 2018

HP-1 Puppy class 4-6 month, 2nd BB

Finally, I have reached one step forward of my dream, showing my own breeded poodle :-) Daidai Ares did his debute with start number one. He was judged by poodle specialist Francesco Cochetti, Italy. Ares critics were very promising for the future and he was awarded with HP. 

​

Kajsa did well in a strong line-up. There were 6 bitches in the final and she was selected as second best bitch. 

January 20, 2018

BOS, CACIB AND INT CH!

Kajsas first time out since she had her pups in October and what a return. She got her 5th BOS in a row at Turku IDS :-) Judge was Rita Reyniers, Belgium.  Also she got the last CACIB that she needed for her International Beauty Champion title (C.I.B.). 

​

I am so pleased with this beautiful lady from Germany. There was a person at the show asking if I would cut her down now and I answered no of course not. We still have so much to give in the rings, and I still want her to be even more confident, so we will keep on going as long as we think it is fun.

August 18, 2017

BOS, CACIB, NO CH, NORD CH AND CACIB AND INT CH!
I don't think I have melted it all. First of all this was the most rainy show I ever visited. We almost swam around the ring. Also we waited for our turn the whole day because there was a learning judge, so the whole schedule was 2 hours late. But as they say "keep up the good mood" and we did and it paid off.

Karlos was first out and was second best male with RES-CAC and CACIB, his last one for the CIB title. I was so happy since there were so many grey minatures. 

Kajsa was then out and the rain started heavily. Luckily she won best bitch with CAC and ended up BOS and new Norwegian and Nordic Champion! She also received her third CACIB.

The whole trip with 1300km on the road paid us well, we could return home happily from the Olympic village Lillehammer :-)

June 10, 2017

BOS 
I had no expectations going to Dalarna, Sweden with Kajsa and Karlos. I was so thrilled that Karlos first time out for our a year was 4th best male. Kajsa did it again the third time in a row and became BOS. Judge was: Juha Putkonen, Finland

​

Siljanvallen was a beautiful show ground with a view over the Siljan lake. I highly recommend to go there.

May 27, 2017

BOS and CAC
The second day it was very warm at the Hammarskog manision. We hade a huge competition in open class with 7 bitches and a total of 11. Judge Laurent Heiniesche finally gave Kajsa the last CAC, so she could finish her Swedish and Finnish champion title only one week after her 2 year birthday, what a pleasant surprise!

May 26, 2017

BOS, CAC, CACIB, SE CH & FI CH
Thank you judge Jussi Liimatainen for wonderful critics for Kajsa. She was the best bitch out of 14 in total in Gimo. Also she received her second CACIB. It was a warm day in Gimo about 27 degrees, but Kajsa had the strength to show off eventhough :-) 

April 21, 2017

RES-CAC 
Kajsa did so well in the ring this time and she ended up 2nd best bitch with res-CAC. It was a total of 11 bitches in the competition.  Judge was Birthe Scheel from Denmark. 

October 14, 2016

CAC and CACIB
What a wonderful revenge for us! We have since Eckerö int dog show worked a lot to get relaxed in the ring and be able to stand still on the table. I have a lot to thank dog coach Maria Söderlund for the result, without her I would not have had the faith to continue. Still, we have work to work and train more to get her really confident in the ring. Nevertheless the judge Wilma Strijbos from the Netherlands was very impressed by her and it was a close game. But she ended up second after the beautful Kaka a red dwarf. 

​

The following day she was 3d best bitch at the speciality show and received RES-CAC. Judge was Henrik Johansson.

August 26, 2016

BEST IN SHOW - 3d
Another great day for Caspian Line's Look At Me and I. She was first of all BOB, then she was Best in Group (BIG), after that she got second placement in Junior BIS and finally 3d BIS. Thanks to judge Nina Andersson who gave her such lovely critics. 

At the same time her sister "Emma" Caspian Line's Limited Edition was European Junior Winner in Belgium :-)

June 17, 2016

CAC and BOS
Judge Lisbeth Campbell is a respectful judge who really handled Kajsa with care and I felt she loved her at once. Despite the big competition she ended up as best bitch and we received her first CAC. The heavy travel with only a few hours sleep paid off. No pain no gain as they say. This show was an excellent finnish before the summer break. 

June 11, 2016

BEST IN SHOW
Wow, I just say wow this was our first Best in Show win and I am so happy. To win this show was a surprise. I want to thank judge Åsa Holesäther and Monah Lithner. It was ower 70 dogs entered and all high quality as it is in Åland despite our littleness, so it feels very prestigious. 

May 27, 2016

We hade a lovely time in Österbybruk, Sweden. The showground is behind the manor in the green gardens. We were lucky that the rain just stopped when it was our turn to enter the ring. It was a huge bitch class, a total of 18 and Kajsa was best junior bitch and then was placed 4th bitch with lovely critics by judge Åsa Andersson. 

April 15, 2016
