Mango on the international show at Hulten

Yesterday there was the international dogshow in Hulten. We went to it with Mango, Michael to show and Dylan as visitors dog. It was een open air show. So we hoped that the weather would stay good. On the way to Hulten the rain was coming down out of the air. At the show we set up our partytent. So when it begins to rain we will sit dry. First we must show Michael. He gets second in his group, 2 ecxellent. Later in the morning it was showtime for Mister Mango. Before he stept into the show ring he must lose something.

Peeing before stepping in the ring.

The judge was very enthousiastic about Mango. Mango became best baby in breed (BBIB) and was awarded a very very prommising. At the end of the day he must come back in the ring for the best baby in show.

Meillion You 'll Never Now ( Faith) was also in Hulten. She became Best of Breed (BOB) CAC and CACIB.

The Lord has lost his head.................

I think sometimes that Mango doesn't like his own head. He was sleeping in the garden and I looked outside and Mango changed his head.

A weekend holiday in Brabant

Last weekend we had a little holiday.We were camping by Tineke en Piet (Beaglekennel Roepers) Together with Petra and Leo (Beaglekennel from Muskoka dreams)Faith, the Hamilton of Petra, our beagle Dylan and Mango were also with us. They had a lot of fun with the Roepers beagles. It was the first time for Mango and Dylan to sleep in a tent. They slept well in it. On sunday we made a walk with the Hamiltons and the beagles. We walked alongside a little lake. Here the dogs could take a swim. After the walk all the dogs are very tired and went to sleep in the shade.
