On the Move

I wanted to revisit the on the move topic again.

I'm super happy we had some nice video's of shows.

Here you see Dita in july 2018 in Luik Belgium

She became 3rth best veteran in show

That year she was a few times on the podium

in Luik, Den Bosch, Goes and Hazerswoude dorp

In this video clip Dita is 8,5 years and I think that it is a real nice "on the move" clip 

Dita retired from the dogshow ring

Finally I can post this,

Dita is retired from the showring, but not in a way we would hope. Before dogshow Antwerpen she stepped into something, and I don't know how, but she tore a tendon in her left front paw, causing her a permanent limp.

See this Facebook post I made few weeks ago



Ofcourse we are very sad about it, because Dita loved being with me in the show ring. But luckily arangements are being made, and we are going to see a specialist in making braces. This process takes a while so there is only 1 thing for us left to do, and that is waiting.
We ofcourse will update on Dita's journey, because she will be having a rehab period when her brace gets on her leg, she is currently in compulsory rest and that is hard, for her and for us. (Altough she scares the living daylight out of the chickens every single day)
She is amazingly cudly, mainly because that is the only thing she can do at the moment.

We will keep updates on Dita, and ofcourse at our place she is still being spoiled............

 

Dita wins on Christmas show

Yesterday december 22 we went to Venray for the Christmas show. We entered Lucky, Star and Dita and we did great again.
Lucky got excellent 2, Star excellent 1 and Dita topped it of, with excellent 1 CAC best Veteran and Best of Breed, we are so proud she did it, with her age of 9 years she just beat all the youngsters.

Dita moved super in the breedring, but even after the veteran ring she did not get tired a bit after going in the mainring again for the groups.
Our Judge was mr Dick Rutten and we are very happy with our results.

See you all next year in the rings again

Another Veteran podium for Dita

Last Sunday november 4th, we went to dogshow Bleiswijk in Hazerswoude-dorp,
We took Lucky and Dita with us.
Lucky is coming back in coat, this summer was awfull for the coats, so I was happy he looked how he looked. And he got an Excellent 3 in championclass.

Dita was so happy and with only 1 month to go before she turns 9 years old, she did a great job by gaining excellent 1 veteran cac, and reserve cac.

The Judge was mr Mats Lindborg from Sweden.

In the mainring she made again a real great show!!!! again from all the veterans she could go on to be 3rt best veteran in show!!! by Judge ms Pamela Runderkamp from the Netherlands

Thank you judges!!!!!

Judy wins Collie specialty in Malsch

What a weekend, I will post more on the seminars later, but first I like to brag about some great results.
We had a specialty show by the American collie club in Germany last Sunday and we had a blast.

Judge was ms Krista Hansen from the USA (Camloch collies)
I had entered 4 collies this time,

Judy in open, Star in Champion, Lucky in Ehrenclasse (for champions and int. champions) and Dita in veteran class.

This was a non FCI show so all nr 1 got CACIB,
I was very pleased that Star got a CACIB, Lucky did also get a CACIB and Judy aswell.

Dita became 2nd in veteran class.

But the best thing to happen was that Judy gained
an excl 1 CACIB, Europasiegerin, Best of Breed and then going Best in Specialty show!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was so amazed.

I was so proud with the great words the Judge shared on my girl, she loved her head, and proportions, beautifull sound body with smooth movement. Excellent coat condition.

For me it was so beautifull to hear these words from a breedspecialist
We are still on a cloud.

Also the dreamteam showed their best by becoming best brace!!!!

Enjoy the pictures.

Later I will post some more on the excellent seminars I went to on the Saturday before the show.

 

 

Again super show!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yesterday at the Meierijshow in Den Bosch we had a blast!!!!

It was bloody bloody hot, so the show organizers took care of it to maintain the area as cool as possible, super cool swimming pools outside,  and the mainring program was a bit altered all in the benefit of the well fare of our furkids.

Our pack did great and they actually did not notice the heat alot.

Our Judge was Mr Johan Wulteputte and he rewarded Lucky with excl 1 CAC/CACIB BOS, his sister Star did even better by getting Excl 1 CAC/CACIB BOB!!!!
Grand old lady Dita did an amazing job she went on Excl 1 best veteran of the breed and later in the mainring she became best in show Veteran place 3!!!!
The mainring was judged by mr A jacques.

We are so proud of team Glamourace Collies, they did wonderfull.
Thanks again Kynoweb for the amazing pictures.

Video of Dita in the mainring are below the pictures

 

 

Studio pictures by Karl Donvil

Whenever I get the change at dogshow I try to make it to Karl Donvil's mobile photostudio,
In Liège Belgium Dita did win best veteran of the breed, so I took the advantage to go there.
I Always love how Karl manages to capture my love for the dogs.

Huge succes for team Glamourace Collies in Bottrop

Last weekend august 6 we went to the collie special show in Bottrop Germany, and we had a super day again!!!
Lucky got 1 excellent CAC-VDH, he finished his German VDH title and he became German DCC Champion!!!!!
His sister Star did an amazing job from openclass, she was not yet allowed to enter in Championclass because I did not have the documents on time, so she beat them all in a class of 10, becoming Excellent 1 CAC-VDH.
And Dita totally out of coat even got Excellent 2 res-CAC-res-VDH

I'm very proud of the team again!! Thank you so much Judge ms Martha Kips from Luxembourg for these wonderfull results.

Afgelopen weekend 6 augustus zijn we naar de collie special show in Bottrop, Duitsland geweest, en we hebben het super gehad.
Lucky behaalde 1 Uitmuntend CAC-VDH en daarmee finishde hij zijn titel VDH Duits Kampioen, maar ook zijn DCC Kampioenstitel!!
Zijn zusje Star deed het ook geweldig in de openklasse, ze mocht nog niet in de kampioensklasse uitkomen omdat daar niet tijdig de documentatie voor binnen was.
Maar ze liet ze wat zien, uit een klasse van 10 stuks werd ze 1 uitmuntend CAC-VDH,
En Dita helemaal uit vacht deed het toch ook heel mooi met een 2 uitmuntend res-CAC-res-VDH.

Ik ben heel erg trots op mijn team!!! Dank aan keurmeester ms Martha Kips uit Luxemburg, heel hartelijk dank voor de geweldige resultaten.

New pictures of Dita

It was pretty sunny today, so I tought it was a nice opportunity to take new pictures of our girl Dita.
She is now 7,5 years old and she has not been showed since somewhere beginning of last year.
She was bathed last week and looks really beautifull.
Bathing is a big part of our caring of skin and coat, I don't like smelly dogs, therefore we bath a lot.

The wind was doing some fun stuff also so we have some not so flattering shots of Dita, but it shows of her nice rear!!!!

Enjoy a little slideshow and the pictures

On grass with purple flowers
