ESA Dortmund 2016 Day 3
Today should be the last and most important day of this weekend in Dortmund. For the pharaohs it was the European Winner Show under a judge who isn’t that easy to read.
Again the 7 entered pharaohs were the first dogs in the ring. And again Turner could stand up to his competitor in the championclass and got the title „European Winner 2016“. Also BetteBette could hold one’s ground under the judge Joachim Dux from Germany and she got the title „European Junior Winner 2016“ and is now already two times crufts qualified for 2017!
Now it was exciting, Merly had a competitior in the championclass, too. Today she could prevail against the other bitch. And also Queenie had society, which just got number 2 against her and Johnna. The judge just commentated it with a smile and the words „But now it’s enough“.
In the competition for the CACIB Merly was one step ahead in front of Queenie and finally, because oft he white tail tip, also in front of Bette. Turner won the BOB and got hold of a wonderful 3rd place in group 5 under the judge Vija Klucniece from Latvia, later in the mainring.
Stormy was entered at the judge Rita van Reyniers from Belgium and got a excellent 3rd place out of a very strong group. All wins were given to the Netherlands, what unfortunately exceled all the fears of all the starters and viewers.
Today Johanna tried Stormy, because of the successful final-qualification from the previous day :-) Both did a wonderful job under judge Rudi Loesaus and were rewarded with a great 2nd place out of a big group of juniorhandlers. The sentence „If you had brought me the pharaoh, you would have won“ then was a theoretical 2nd Day Win on the „success-account“ of our Dream-Duo.
The way home after such a fantastic weekend is twice funny, of course. The chest has never been as full packe das this time after the weekend in Dormund…
