Updates updates updates

The season has started a long time ago and I've been lazy with the updates while my puppies have been busy bees!!! So please enjoy these amazing photos from few events we've been attending :)

My girls Taffy & Greta had a swim-date with bro Toffe and his big brother Nuka. We were celebrating Nuka's birthday at Onnenkoira in Hyvinkää :)

ASLAN - Magtaf Buona Notte Bonaire gained his first title and is also known as EE JCH from now on. Aslan has taken over the coursing fields like a hurricane and he won three LC CAC's. One from each three races he attended.

KIKI - Magtaf Jamaican Portrait was shown few times and she has one res-CAC and two Best Bitch placements. She's also a lure crazy girl and she specializes in oval track racing. Hopefully next year she'll have her first official start!

JENNY-CARLA - Magtaf Kick-'Em-Jenny hasn't been so active on the conformation/coursing front but she's been very active at home and is spoiled and loved by her family.

DONNA - Magtaf Ella Eleuthera has been spoiled by her family. She just might make her show debut next year!

ENZO - Magtaf Cuba Gooding has been shown few times and hopefully he'll continue next year too!

KARO - Magtaf Arrivederci Aruba has mostly been chasing his little brother or maybe it's the other way around ;)

GRETA - Magtaf May In Martinique has gained one res-CAC and two CAC's with BOB- & BOS-placements.

RIO - Magtaf Kingston Kane has been enjoying country side living and gets to play with her sister Jenny-Carla a lot.

TOFFE - Magtaf Flagship Flanagan has gained 3 res-CAC's and one CAC with BOS-placement. He has also been very active lure courser with three LC CAC'S and a silver medalist in Finnish LC championships. He's been placed 6th best male in the Whippet of the Year competition. He is also 3rd best lure courser rookie of the year and 9th out of all 238 lure coursing whippets.

JULIET - Magtaf Red Stripe Ruby has been shown few times but mostly she's been doing some agility with her sheltie sisters!

TAFFY - Sporting Fields Jamaican Me Crazy was supposed to have a year off but she's just so excited when we get ready for a dog show so she was entered too... And she ended up being 9th best bitch in the Whippet of the Year with two CACIB's and BOB- & BOS-placements.

The biggest highlight for me was the BIS-breeder win at the Finnish Whippet Club Specialty with Greta, Toffe, Kiki & Enzo

I also had the pleasure to judge Silken Windhounds on their own specialty show. It was a hard but very interesting assignment. Here is my beautiful BEST IN SHOW who just owned the ring that day:
