NOKO AT THE NATIONAL DOG SHOW ERBA (Italy) 7.12.2019
Judge: Mrs. E. Cartledge (GB)


November 10th 2019
Balingen-Ostdorf (Germany) on the JAS/R

I participated with Noko at Balingen-Ostdorf (Germany) on the JAS/R. I think it's a great opportunity showing a young dog's attitudes in different hunting situations like tracking, searching, marking on land and in the water... The dog works with different game like rabbits, ducks, pheasants.

It was a great experience for me and Noko and after a long day in very nice company Noko got the certificate "passed" (only passed or failed)
I was very pleased with my girl, she really showed very good hunting attitudes :-)

😍



WELCOME LITTLE PRINCESS

November 2nd 2019 Toni's & Gleam's only child was born, 11h30 AM, caesarean section, no way to avoid it.
Anyhow, Gleam and the very active little princess are doing fine, no problems at all and this is the most important thing 😍
Well, for me it's the first time having "a single child", it will be a new experience watching little princess growing up on her own...
the first pic shows the princess 15 minutes after the birth

October 2019: Gleam is pregnant and will deliver soon


Unfortunately there won’t be many puppies, probably one or two…
Well, this is nature and it happens for what reason so ever…
I just feel sorry for all the wonderful people who have been waiting for a puppy…

 


WT CASTEGGIO HOSTED BY "IL BIANCO SPINO"  October 13th 2019
Judges: Mr. S. Franchi; Mr. C.Szantay


For the first time I entered Noko in an official WT in beginners class. I was astonished how well she behaved and especially how well she worked :-)
She ended up on 4th place leaving behind her some real experienced dogs :-) If the heel work and the delivery would have been just a little bit better…  loosing points on this kind it’s really my fault, I can’t blame Noko! :-)
Unfortunately nobody made any pictures :-(

 


INTERNATIONAL DOG SHOW BERGAMO AT ORNAGO (MB) September 29th 2019
Judge: Mr. S. Sacarpelli


2nd day at Ornago. This time Noko wasn't the only Chesapeake. A nice surprise not being alone in the ring. I showed Noko against another nice female but Noko was the winning dog CAC/CACIB/BOS. She lost the BOB “battle” against a lovely Champion dog. Never mind, I am very happy and pleased with the result :-)

 


INTERNATIONAL DOG SHOW LECCO AT ORNAGO (MB) September 28th 2019
Judge: Mrs. N. Davidović


I showed Noko in the intermediate class and she behaved well, the judge liked her and honored her with the CAC/CACIB

 


GUNDOG TRAINING WITH JASON MAYHEW (GB) JUNE 2019 AT STAGNO LOMBARDO (CR)
Pictures by: Ursula Venetz  www.ursulavenetz.ch

I invited my friend Jason Mayhew, a famous and well known gundog trainer in Great Britain to Italy for a clinic.
I must admit these 2 training where just fantastic! Jason knows exactly how to “deal” in a wonderful, straight forward way with the dogs and their handlers because he works with the motto K.I.S.S meaning KEEP IT SIMPLE STUPID :-) And he is absolutely right: the less you fuss about your dog, the better he works!
All the participants enjoyed the days very much and everybody is looking forward seeing Jason again in April 2020!

WT TEST MANTOVA – SAN NICOLÒ PO 14./04./2019
Judges: Matthew Lambden (IRL), John Barr (IRL), Franco Abati (I), Francesco Pavone (I)
Pictures of Gleam and Tadi by Alessandro Ribeiro Pinto

NOKO’S FIRST WT :-)
I handeld her in the Training Class noncompetitive because the Italian rule says: if one competed in Open Class one can’t run competitive in Training Class… Anyhow Noko did really well, was very cool and I was very pleased. Her scores between 16-18, no 0 :-) brightened up a real nasty, cold and rainy day. I think I can be proud of this 9 month old puppy :-)
Beside Tadi was placed 4th and Gleam 7th in Novice Class allover a successful event.

 


INTERNATIONAL DOG SHOW MONTICHIARI  BS (ITALY)
Judge: Mr.  R. Di Carlo (I)

NOKO’S COMMENT: Now I am not a puppy anymore, now I am a junior and I still don’t like showing my teeth but I had to… :-(
Anyhow, the judge liked me and gave me the 1st Exc/Best Junior of Breed. To be honest I was the only one but an Exc. is an Exc. :-)
Then I had to “fight” for BOB, no chance beside a dog in the Champion Class but the BOS was left over, meaning my 1st  BOS :-)
Then it took a long time until we were called to the Ring Of Honour together with all the best Juniors of different breeds. That was fun, I have seen dogs I have never seen before. After this exiting day I finally could turn back home and relax…

 


BECOMING A FATHER IS NOT DIFFICULT…  TADI X YASKA

After a successful mating in February Yaska is pregnant and the puppies will be delivered 2nd week of April.
If you want to know more about Tadi’s bride have a look at www.bbs-chesapeake-retriever.ch


After some quite exciting days Yaska had enough of her lover and she didn’t want to pose any more for a nice wedding picture…

 


NOKO’S FIRST SHOW AT RIVA DEL GARDA (TN) ITALY 2nd of March 2019
At the age of 8 month Noko started her show carrier. I showed in the junior class, 6 to 9 month old dogs. In the ring she was easy to handle and the judge liked her: “a very promising puppy” :-)
Maybe Noko follows the footsteps of her parents Gleam and Dare…  

 


OUR NEW HOME AT BOTTICINO

We moved to a new home. It’s nicely situated in the hills above Brescia.
The house is rather small but there is a lot of space for the dogs, we have our own olive trees and therefore also our own olive oil :-) there are also some fruit, walnut, almond and pomegranate trees as well as hedges of rosemary… Anyhow, Noko, Tadi and Gleam love the terrain to stroll around and I like it because you just step out in the back yard and you can do some Dummy training…
