On Sunday she went well again and was placed 6th.

Great event in a beautiful area. Well organized, the kitchen crew did an excellent job, the judges set up interesting and demanding tests, good mood among the participants. Overall a super weekend even the weather cooperated .-)

I participated with Noko and my friend Gaby who owns Noko’s daughter Chiumani called “Kju” at the 2 days workshop “For Chessie's Only” held by Ulli Schlögell. She is a real “Chesapeake women”, she owns, breeds and hunts them for many years.
It was a great pleasure watching so many Chessies during their work. I must admit that “Kju” worked with big enthusiasm and extremely well for her age of 1½ years. If she goes on like this she will become a fantastic working dog… :-)

For the first time Noko participated in Novice. She did quite well, I was very pleased how she worked.
We ended up on 4th place just one point behind the podium.
If I had handled her a little bit better we could have been easily 3rd even 2nd... Nevertheless we had a great day!
