Review of 2013
2013 not a year like any other!!!!
Now we are once again at the end of the year and looking back! Time to review the days and months and to thank the many people who have accompanied us.
Right in January we started the show season with Audrey in Ljubljana, and successfully!!! She won her class twice!
In the same month, we searched for a suitable kennel name and submitted it to the FCI.
In March we will accompany Michaela and Helmut to England!!! Filu qualified for the CRUFTS in November!!! That was a great experience for us!!! An adventurous car ride that we all won’t forget in a hurry J
April is all about hunting!!! Audrey passes the tracking test with the highest score of 100 points. We are so proud of our mouse.
Juhe and also this month came the confirmation from the SKG, our kennel name Golden Swissline is now officially protected by the FCI!!!
Time for a vacation!!! And this was combined with the CACIB shows in Zadar in May. We had great days with our friends and Audrey comes home as the new Croatian Beauty Champion. What more could you want!!!
We go online!!!! On June 20th the time had come!!!! At this point a big thank you and compliment to our webmaster who always realizes all our wishes so great!!! Thank you very much!!!
At the beginning of July, Michaela and I flew to Italy. Our destination was Tuscany, the FontePosca kennel! We had been looking forward to this day for a long time. Nora was waiting for us there, our new bitch for show and breeding! We spent some nice days in Italy and together with Nora we went back home!!!
The highlight in August was definitely the show in Innsbruck where Audrey won her class twice and on Saturday she got the res. CACIB on Saturday.
At the end of this month we went with the dogs to Denmark, where we had a great week in a vacation home by the sea. This week was especially important for Nora. She really blossomed in the pack and took a big step forward.
In September we were often out and about in Austria.
We travelled to the CSS of the Austrian Beagle Club on Saturday and enjoyed a wonderfully organized evening with wine tasting. Then on Sunday the show with 85 registered beagles! Great atmosphere, with many familiar faces!!! Audrey shows herself excellently this time presented by Michi.
The big surprise was Nora, between all the beagles she seems to feel comfortable and was placed excellent on 4.
We were also present in Tulln at the Bundessiegerschau!!! Nora wins her first trophy, Michi is sooo happy!!!
Audrey unfortunately only with SG, the food probably tasted too good for her on vacation
In October we went to Dortmund and Budweis. Great results for Audrey!!! In Dortmund and Budweis each a V2 res CAC!!!
Audrey is now officially approved for breeding!!! On November 16th she passed the licensing in Anwil. We are incredibly proud and the puppy planning can start!!!
Also the show in Zagreb is coming up as usual in November!!! Both girls got great scores, but I am especially proud of Audrey who ran in the Champions class for the first time and was awarded V1 both times.
The last month of the year, December, really wanted to know it again!!!
In Wels on Saturday we were able to celebrate Nora’s biggest success to date! V1/4 CACA totally deserved: she was presented very well by me and showed everyone her beautiful movement.
Now the time has come to say thank you.
Special thanks to the breeders of my dogs
Gertrud and Axel Steindorfer from Austria
Gabriele Vadi and Rudi Baldi from Italy
Thanks also to all those who have given us such great support this year. And have taught us to listen to ourselves and not to give in to other opinions. These are our dogs, with whom we will continue to go through life together. Even if it can’t always be all sunshine and roses.
Now it’s winter break and in January we will be back at the start with our girls!
We are already looking forward to seeing you again and wish you in this sense
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!!!
