2014 Year in Review
This year has given us many new great dear friends and many amazing moments that we have been able to share with our old ones.
It has also been a year of great victories in so many ways.
Titta finished her INTERNATIONAL CHAMPION title
and national champion titles for FINNISH, SWEDISH, NORWEGIAN, ESTONIA AND NORDIC CHAMPION.
This beauty is just 2 years old! She is everything and so so so much more! Florence you should be so proud!
Patu continued his showing in veteran class being now at the age of 10+.
He took BOB -veteran at Finnish Winner Show and got FINNISH VETERAN WINNER TITLE 2014 and took
HELSINKI VETERAN WINNER TITLE just the day before.
This was one special weekend after it closes the circle him getting his first titles from the very same place nearly 10 years ago.
I am so lucky that I have had him in my life! Thank you Seidi!!!
One of the great moments were when Patu's son Repe took BEST IN SHOW in our Specialty Show during World Winner Shows in Finland!
He looked SO nice, and SO much like his father! I am so proud of him and his owners, you have done a lot with him!
Naturally we attended on blood tracking tests and Titta took her 10th straight Winners Class 1st prize result.
She is definitely more than a pretty cover!
We have interesting plans for our future! At the moment we are waiting Titta to start her season after she will be bred with Roo.
So please keep your fingers, toes and paws crossed that we will have little furry ones coming early spring. If everything will work out, this will be an amazing breeding with the pedigree that I love and dogs that I adore. Thank you Vickie, Pepi and Florence!
Thank you all for your support and caring during the 2014!!!
AND special thanks again to my parents!!!!! and Anna-Lena!!!!

2013 Year in Review
We have had a year full of great and unforgettable moments,
but totally for surprise life also laid a dark shadows over us.
We lost two members of our family far too early! This is something that you can never understand or accept!
We said goodbyes to Totti and Tatu, who will always be loved and never forgotton!
They will always live in our hearts!
Despite of these dark shadows, we together did pretty amazing job both in shows and tests!
We finished our show season Titta being TOP IWS in Finland being just barely over one year old!
She also won bitches at our Specialty Show and BOB at our Main Specialty.
She has also being placed in group rings.
We were just suppose to practise, but she turn out to be brilliant show dog with the createst character.
During the first year of showing she has already collected CACs and CACIBs from three different countries.
Patu continued his showing in veteran class being now age of 9.
He won BEST IN SHOW veteran at International Show being the very first IWS ever to do that!
This one of the moments that I will never forget, I was so proud of my great old dog.
Naturally we attented on few blood tracking tests and it was just enough what we needed.
Titta finnished her TRACKING CHAMPION TITLE with straight five required tests.
She is definately more than a pretty cover!
Thank you all for your support and caring during the 2013!!!
Thank you all the judges for all the appreciation,
AND special thanks again to my parents!!!!!
