Puppies are growing very, very fast; they have had their first vaccination, their first deworming and are already enjoying the attention not only from their mom Mii, but also from our youngest addition to the CHS Apple. She spends a lot of time with them, helps clean them and sucks their noses. Apple’s main inspector is always the first to get to the box when some of them start barking. I named this litter “BRILLIANT“ and the puppies already have names chosen by their owners. And they are wonderful, I really like them: Deet, Max, Harry, Lumi, Whisky and the last puppy has to wait a little longer because he and his mom can’t get along. But they still have time.
On Tuesday 16.11.21 – MIA – BITERSWEET SYMPHONY Canis Regnum gave birth to the long-awaited puppies from the „B“ litter. After a smooth and quick delivery, 6 puppies were born – 4 males and 2 females. All of them, including the mother, are healthy and are getting used to the world, especially at night. The birth weights were and are even after a few days balanced in all the puppies and they are growing very fast. The coats of all the puppies are cream colored in two shades. Mia is a model mom and takes care of the puppies in an exemplary manner.
On Thursday, October 28, 2021, at the 12th month of Apple – GRAVETY of Love LASTER GOLD underwent an X-ray examination of the hip and elbow joints, as well as the shoulders. The images showed that Apple’s joints are completely healthy – without any findings, and she received the best possible evaluation, which I am very excited about:
HD (DBK): A/A, ED (DLK): 0/0, shoulder OCD: negative
On Friday, the genetic results arrived as well, and there is also something to boast about:
GR PRA1 clear, GR PRA2 clear, PRA/PRCD – negative, ICTa – clear
On November 16th, after a very long time, we are expecting the birth of puppies from the „B“ litter by our female MII- Bitersweet Symphony Canis Regnum and ROVEROVI – Thornywait Fire N´Ice. I am very happy that the trip to the wonderful English gentleman has been successful and we are welcoming the puppies from this dog in our CHS.
After a month, Hoyka – Amazing Hoya SnowWhite Beauty took part in the autumn tests to ensure that we didn’t fall out of form. The new beautiful courses in Kosorina plus the sunny day certainly brought me joy and, of course, the performance that Hoyka delivered. She is at the age when the results of several years of regular work with her are starting to show. So, on Saturday, Hoyka performed flawlessly with a full score of 200 and deservedly so. She finished in 1st place with the title of res CACT, as the golden title that was younger was also awarded with full points according to the dog-breeding rules; we had to release the younger dog to the younger one. It’s a joy when you have the opportunity to watch your flawless performances of your partner-dog and even your own breeding.
After last year’s missed test season caused by the COVID-19 situation, we started this year’s first tests with the dog number 9. The hot day caused some problems for the dogs, especially in the disciplines where it was necessary to run for longer – the sledding. Hoyka – Amazing Hoya SnowWhite Beauty performed brilliantly in the disciplines and after the first one I knew she wouldn’t make any mistakes and we have a chance for a good result. And that was the case, Hoyka finished in 1st place with the title of resCACT and in the overall ranking of the tests she came in second place out of 16 competitors. We lost a point in the sledding too, and I think that’s not unfair, but kudos to the judge’s opinion, it’s the judge’s opinion and it doesn’t change the score. I think that Hoyka still performed an excellent performance after such a long break.
We ended this year’s exhibition on my expectations and I am proud that I was able to see my puppy in the final competitions for the most beautiful dog of the show. We ended on a scorching hot day like this:
MIA – BITTERSWEET SYMPHONY Canis Regnum – working class – V1 CAC, judge: Pawel Osak – New Polish champion
HOYA – AMAZING HOYA SnowWhite Beauty – champion class – V1 CAC, Best Bitch, BOB(Best of Breed), BIG4(Best of Group), judge: Pawel Osak and Hoyka become the contenders for the Polish Champion with this show.
Autumn at our CHS is no longer about shows, but about work trials. So I guess we will be successful this year in the work field just as much as we were at the shows, and then there will be peace and quiet, and at the end of the year and in the spring of the new year, I guess we will just be looking forward to the puppies, if everything goes as it should.
We made a short trip to the beautiful city of Satu Mare in order to complete the multi-champion and I think our mini show team really did well. Especially in the strong competition from the Ukrainian breeders and their professional handlers. In the working class, the younger female HOYA – AMAZING HOYA SnowWhite Beauty performed, where she won 3xExcellent 1, CAC&r.CACIB&CACIB, fulfilling the conditions for awarding the title of Romanian Champion of Beauty. Since Hoya is a champion of several countries (SK, HU, RO), she also became a Multi-Champion and a candidate for the inter-championships of C.I.B. and C.I.E.
In the class of champions, Hoykina’s mom MIA – BITTERSWEET SYMPHONY Canis Regnum performed, which in strong competition also did not lose; it won 1x Excellent 1&CAC and 2x Excellent 2&2xres.CAC, thus becoming a candidate for the Rumunsko beauty champion.
I am very excited about the results of our mini pidi show team and thank our support – the great Irish Setter breeder Bronka Glonekova for the professional grooming & handling.
On Saturday, we participated in this event organized by the Apple – Gravety of Love Laster Gold Club near us in Tatranská Štrba. We trained with Apple and entered the competition with our little darling. Apple has been in her new home for 1.5 months, so she is just getting used to it, but she is very smart and learns very, very quickly. Before she came to us, she didn’t know water; she had never been there before; after a week in Slovakia, she already realized that she can swim and since she is puppy-like playful, she mastered the water effortlessly from the beginning. We also mastered the dry handling and the other disciplines were just a piece of cake. We lost one point in the handling, but we successfully completed the 1st place.
On Thursday, July 8, 2021, we attended the international show in Nitra with HOYOU – AMAZING HOYA SnowWhite Beauty for the very first time in a very long time in order to finally complete the championship. With our favorite handler Saska, they competed in the champion class for the first time (since Hoyka is already the champion of Hungary), and thus HOYA became the Slovak beauty champion and the candidate for the Grand Champion.
After long deliberation and searching for pros and cons, in the end the feelings prevailed and so after a long journey this little miss Apple from Belarus arrived to us – GRAVETY OF LOVE LASTER GOLD. Sire: Angelonato Makes People Talk, Dam: Guduin´s Riddl Intriga for Laster Gold.
I wish you my little princess that you have the best new home with us and most importantly lots of health and success.
