LABRADOR LIVING

Hello lablovers

I´m going to start blog and I hope I have strength to do it every friday. We´re living here at Soldalens interesting weekend, because we are mating our Female Mona ---Rosanan Amorosa.--- to our own young male Indy ---Macita´s Indy Caracas--- This mating is unfortunately our plan B because we planning to use one of my favourite male  Cornerstone Thank YOU at Kowalski who died in accident few weeks ago. We allready made this mating but my bitch was empty. After that you think that why bitch was empty and I believe in destiny by myself and it destiny thinks that mating is not the best choice. But Indy is great male 2 years and almost a Champion nice temper quolified in the field and we love him.

I was wondering that soon it´s time to made inventory of the year 2011 and move to the next season. I´m very thrilled to start next season in january, probably in Estonia, because we can start showing our first own breeding living in our kennel, Daisy ---Soldalens Apple Crumble--- Let see what´s happening with her.

One thing I was wondering alone a longlong time is jealously of the people in dogshow. I cannot understand people who do everything to manage in a dogshow. Winning is not mainpoint in that hobby, and we always have to remember that this is hobby. People who do this for living are the worst, they need success in a ring to get better money from their living and these people ruining whole nice hobby.
I cannot understand the way they doing allover, in the Facebook they tagged next weekend judge to their dog picture and telling how succesful dog is. They do whatever to win and unfortunately there is also judges who let them do it. My biggest joy in a show comes from managing the show and especially if the winner is my young dog never won before. This season nicest won was in Bratislava 14.5.2011 when my male Indy won BOB and BOG-3, I never thought this young boy is allready a winner in that age, and all without paying the judge, Thank You Petru Munteanu.
 Keep your mind clear and remember this is just a hobby, if you do this for living, remember this is other people hobby, don´t boil it for us.

We just moved in new house and I´m so happy of the space we have for the dogs, maybe I can put some pics some day. We have few older dogs living in the house but young monsters lives in the kennel and it´s so peaceful for everybody, no pee in the carpet no poo in the corner and nobody running allover. Paddock is nice sized maybe 50x100 meter, I´m so glad I can visit in a old famous kennels to see how they keep the dogs, our house is always open to the dog enthusiasts and breeders, I´m pleased to show how we keep our dogs. We have 12 living in our kennel, it´s too much in a living room. Let see where puppies lives when they born.

Now I think I´ll go to do the dogs, then to sauna and swimming pool. That´s my lonely friday

All the best to all of you
