Time to take some picture of our youngest girl ... <3

My little girl did it... :-)  Our first time in intermediate class was a succes. It will be very boring to read again,  but she made me very proud. Svea is a pleasure to show because of her sweetness and happiness.

Svea 'Joy and Pride Ida' - Int. Class - 1 Excellent 

                            CAC / CACIB - BEST BITCH 

Can’t thank you enough, dear Jeanette for our little girl. She’s a real beauty and not only on the outside. She lets everyone’s heart melt. :) She captures your soul when she looks you in the eyes. 

Count  down to Crufts ;-) 

A while ago I ordered a new Kezang ...

I was thinking of something special for my mum: to honour Rosie and a late birthday present. 

Nicola (Kezang Mumford) and her son, Luke did an amazing job and made this masterpiece ! It's based on a photo we took when Rosie was a puppy, together with our other brown girl, Youpke.

We couldn't wish for a better end of junior class. ;-) 

A day full of emotions... two years after auntie Rosie, 

Svea gained her second junior titel.

               ***  LUXEMBOURG JUNIOR CHAMPION ***

It’s not the most important ... but still can’t stop smiling .. We went to Luxembourg with only hope.. mayby, a little chance she could win. With her allure she did it, my showgirl... two years after Rosie winning in luxembourg. Maybe we will go to Crufts in honour of Rosie.. finish and live the experience she never could .. always in the ring with Rosie in our hearts !

I can't find the words to express how proud I'm of my little girl, Svea. Yesterday she took her last point to finish her junior titel. 

Every point is well deserved. Never standing alone in the ring and always finish with 'best junior in breed'. 

My first beardie girl that became Belgian Junior Champion. :-)
