Bikita er nu kommet i løbetid. Det betyder, at hvis alt går som planlagt, vil hun få hvalpe i starten af februar 2012, som vil være klar til at komme til deres dejlige, nye hjem i starten af april. Vi glæder os helt ubeskriveligt herhjemme…
We have asked for a romantic “mating advertisement” and have all our wishes fulfilled in the poster Elly Veldman (www.madzinza.nl) has created for us by the lovely pictures Karin van Klaveren has taken of Akono and with the last wonderful new pictures Benny Fischer took of Bikita. We think the poster tells a lovely story and makes us look even more forward to Akono and Bikitas puppies.
Vi har ønsket os en romantisk “parringsannonce”, og har fået alle vores ønsker opfyldt i den plakat Elly Veldman (www.madzinza.nl) har lavet til os med de dejlige billeder Karin van Klaveren har taget af Akono og med de sidste skønne nye billeder Benny Fischer har taget af Bikita. Vi synes plakaten fortæller en dejlig historie og får os til at glæde os endnu mere til Akono og Bikitas hvalpe…
Last week we had a visit from Benny Fischer, who is the best photographer we know. He came with his lovely dogs, Thani and Neo, and there was a lot of play out in the field. Bikita seems to find that Thani was somewhat insistent at times, but she probably smells really good, because we expect her to be in heat every day now.
Below are a few of my favorite pictures. More can be found under “photo” in the album called “Oktober 2011”.
I sidste uge havde vi besøg af Benny Fischer, som er den bedste fotograf, vi kender. Han kom sammen med sine dejlige hanhunde, Thani og Neo, og så blev der ellers leget ude på marken. Bikita syntes Thani var noget pågående indimellem, men hun skulle jo også snart dufte rigtigt godt, da vi venter, hun kommer i løbetid hvert øjeblik det skal være.
Nedenfor ses et par af mine yndlingsbilleder. Flere kan ses under foto, i det album der hedder “Oktober 2011”
It has been a long time since I have written news here, but today there is really good reason to do so, as Bikita has passed Rally-Advanced-class for the third time and has thus gained the official title of Rally-Advanced-Master or in Denmark: “Rally-Ø”. She was happy and focused today where I, as her handler, didn’t made any errors (it’s easy to make humanerrors in a rallycompetition ;o)) and we got 98 out of 100 possible points, so I’m very proud of my little dog today.
Tonight we were on a long walk in the woods in the beautiful autumn wheather, and here Bikita showed a whole different side of herself, as she was first and foremost a hunting dog and incredibly turned on by the deer and pheasants, she dusted up.
I haven’t got any pictures from todays competition, but here is a photo of Bikita taken 3 weeks ago when we were at rallytraining. Photo: Benny Fischer.
Det er længe siden jeg har fået skrevet nyheder her, men i dag er der virkelig grund til det, for Bikita har i dag bestået Rally-Øvet-klassen for 3. gang og har hermed opnået den officielle titel Rally-Øvet-Mester eller Rally-Ø. Hun var glad og koncentreret i dag, hvor jeg som fører heller ikke lavede nogen fejl (det kommer man ellers let til på en rallybane ;o) ) og vi fik 98 ud af 100 mulige point, så jeg er meget stolt af min lille hund i dag.
Her til aften var vi på en lang tur i skoven i det skønne efterårsvejr, og her viste Bikita en hel anden side af sig selv, idet hun her først og fremmest var jagthund og utroligt tændt af de rådyr og fasaner hun støvede op.
Jeg har desværre ingen billeder fra i dag, men her er et billede af Bikita, taget af Benny Fischer, da hun var til rallytræning med mig for 3 uger siden.
Bikita er stadig ikke kommet i løbetid, men jeg regner med og håber på det sker inden for få dage.
Bikita had a lovely weekend with a visit from her breeder Lykke Linnet and Bikita’s half brother Linnemann Adin E’Kati, who is almost 5 months. Bikita and Kati have the same mother, and both of them remind very much of their mother Épris.
Bikita and Kati immediately became best friends and the pictures below show a few of the many happy moments they had together. Bikita was very sweet, patient and considerate towards her guest, and we just think she will be a super mom.
Bikita har haft en dejlig weekend med besøg af hendes opdrætter Lykke Linnet og Bikita’s halvbror Linnemann Adins E’Kati på knap 5 måneder. Bikita og Kati har samme mor og minder begge to meget om deres mor Épris.
Bikita og Kati blev straks de bedste venner, og billederne nedenfor viser nogle få af de mange glade stunder de to havde sammen. Bikita var meget sød, tålmodig og hensynsfuld over for sin gæst, og vi tænker bare, hun bliver en supergod mor.
The father of our coming A-litter, Farmers Guardian African Akono, has become World Winner 2011 at the World Dog Show in Paris. Big congratulations to his owners Petra & Wolfgang Reiter. We are so proud of Akono and look very much forward to visit Akono this autumn, where the mating with our Bikita is planned. We think it will be some fabulous puppies.
Below is a picture that shows Akono and this owner Wolfgang Reiter on the big day, and also a picture from earlier this summer with Akono together with his happy owners.
