News on our kennel: Polardog show in Ånnaboda 160505

Last Thursday I was at a show in Ånnaboda with Sälka (Bivvilis Eminha of My Bluf now 11,5years old), Nallo (Kannibalnes'Karloff of Illusion who turned 12 on the the fifth-May) and Etna (Etna Bielkersmils of Pepper).

Lars and Lotta with Bielkersmils Irja of Zouroff (aka Indra) and Bielkersmils Ice of Zouroff (aka Ice) and Nadia with Bielkersmils Moneypenny of Nallo aka Penny were also at the show.

The sun shone from a clear blue sky and a chilly wind made the temperature comfortable for the dogs. Both Sälka and Nallo was overjoyed to come along for the "adventure" and Etna was as always happy, jumpy and affectionate.

Sälka placed as best veteran of the opposite sex BOS critique: Nice model, typical for the breed head .Compact well feathered ears. Excellent neck, shoulder. Hold the line well. Correct tail. Well muscled. Showing no age. Fine movements from the side. Nice coat structure. Salute to the owner to keep the dog in good shape. Good luck in many years!
