Our ES North Walkers Sirius was chosen the best hunting dog in finnish winter trials in the fjell/lappish mountain

Plus he recieved the 3.prize in open class. He would have recieved the first prize if my husband would´ve shot the grouse down but snowy terrain makes it usually hard to succeed in shooting a white grouse in winter trials...and finnish rules are strict...:(

The judge was from Norway, Roger Halvari from Vadsö. We had 31 dogs starting in the trials. Only 3 setters won prizes. IS Håkoya´s C-Spitfire and IS Finby Chico were prized with… Continue

Hi everyone,

We are taking Thai to his first dog show this coming sunday here in Athens in the category 'minor puppy' but I'm worried as I have only done this once with my english setter long time ago and I'm not sure how to do this right. What do judges ask of minor puppy? Does he have to know how to 'pose' and run in the ring as adult dogs? I've been trying to teach him that last couple of weeks and he got it almost but he's too playful to do it properly and will only do it if… Continue
