Large A1: Pimpo was 3rd with result 5.
Large A3: All our 3 dogs (Puubi, Satiainen and Sipowicz) made 5 points
in each run so there is really not much to tell...

03.-05.10.08 Finnish PON Club held a camping weekend in
Punkalaidun. While I was working like a mad man Tommi was having fun
camping and training agility with PON owners. This camping was
great success and it will be held also next year in October.

26.-28.09.08 Finally! Agility World Championships took place
in Helsinki! What a weekend! To be honest our Finnish team wasn't as
succesful as we Finns expected but otherwise the whole weekend was
GREAT. And of course, the bronze medal in individuals large category
felt wonderful!
It was also great to see one crazy Croatian sheepdog running and
barking in the course :-) Slovakian team's Gera (our Satir's aunt) was
really giving everything she could. After the first day Slovakian team
was in 3rd place but faults on second day put them to the 6th place.
Still great job team Slovakia and especially Michala & Gera! It was
really a pleasure to meet you and other CS people!
__________________________________________________________________________
21.09.08 Agility at the same place as yesterday. This time
just Satiainen participated and he was disqualified twice (A3 & J3).
Judge was Kari Jalonen.
________________________________________________________________________
20.09.08 Today's agility competition (2x agility run) was
successful for Satiainen (large 3) and Sipowicz (medium 3).
Satiainen made nice run at 1st Choice cup and was placed 2nd right
after Finnish AWC team member bordercollie Yoko and her handler Jouni
Orenius.
Puubi made refusal otherwise she ran fast and fluently.
Sipowicz also ran pretty well and was placed 2nd in medium 3 with
clear run.
The second run didn't go so well with Satiainen and Puubi. They
both made one mistake; Satiainen jumped contact in dogwalk and Puubi
knocked one barn. Otherwise their running looked great.

31.08.08 Capo (Tuus Vekkuliverstas) ran his first clear run
in A1 with his owner Heidi Hakola and they won their class!!! Great
done Heidi & Capo!!!
_________________________________________________________________________
30.08.08 Capo (Tuus Vekkuliverstas) ran his first official
run with his owner Heidi Hakola at agility competition in Oulu. Capo
ran fast but unfortunately he dropped 3 bars.
Sipowicz, Puubi and Satiainen competed 2 runs each in Orivesi. In
first run Sipowicz made clear run and was placed 2nd in medium A3.
Puubi's result was 5 and Satiainen's 10 in A3.
In jumping run Sipowicz made also clear run and was placed 4th.
By running two clear runs in-a-row within same day he got the results
he needed for the Finnish Championships and AWC qualifications for
2009! Excellent job Sipowicz!!!
Tommi was in big trouble with Satiainen and Puubi in jumping run. The
course wasn't fluent and Tommi didn't like the profile at all. With
Satiainen the result was 5 but with Puubi they made clear run and were
placed 3rd.
At the same time in Dog show in Porvoo Saga (Tuus Laventelilulla)
got VG from Serbian judge Zoran Brankovic. Saga is owned by Eija
Hyvättinen from Porvoo.
__________________________________________________________________________
24.08.08 International Agility competition took place in
Lieto. Kari Jalonen and Jarmo Jämsä were judging the runs.
It was sunny day so it really wasn't Sipowicz's weather. He looses
all his speed when it's warm and beautiful. Still he was placed 3rd
(agility & jumping)in medium 3 class with clear and slow (within standard time) runs.
With Satiainen Tommi ran 3 runs in large 3 class (agility &
jumping) and got 5 points from
each run. Puubi knocked the first bar in agility run. This is a
very very rare mistake from Puubi so Tommi was so surprised that he
didn't pay tension to the rest of the course and they made more
mistakes. Puubi's jumping run in J3 was clear and fast and she was
placed 2nd.
Siru Takala's CS bitch Emma (Ema Certisa) got her third CAC today and
got the title Finnish Champion! Congrats Emma & co!!!
__________________________________________________________________________
16.-17.8.08 What a weekend for Sipowicz and Puubi at agility
competition in Lempäälä.
On Saturday Sipowicz won in A3 with result 0. It was raining
heavily and that just suited for our detective well because he just LOVES rain.
The agility run was also a part of 1st Choice cup competition. Puubi
was placed 3rd in jumping run. Judge was Vesa Sivonen.
Sunday was almost a perfect day! Sipowicz won again in A3 with result 0! This was
Sipowicz's sixth winning in 3rd level!
Puubi did also great both in agility and jumping run. She won both runs
with result 0!!! So it was 3 winnings for Tommi with 2 dogs in 2
categories on Sunday.
With Satiainen it didn't go so well... Actually Tommi did poorly
with him. They knocked bars, took refusals and got disqualified few
times... but still, this weekend was just EXCELENT!!!
________________________________________________________________________
12.08.08 Sanna (8 years old) and Puubi ran together at
unofficial agility competition for the first time. The result was DISQ
but their run was pretty nice. Hopefully Sanna will run with Puubi again.
_________________________________________________________________________
11.08.08 Three excellent results of Croatian Sheepdogs and
PON are placed in news section 08.06.08.
__________________________________________________________________________
10.08.08 Today it was much better with Puubi's agility run
in Tampere. She won in A3 with clear run. Her other run was DISQ
because of Tommi's bad handling (he was too happy about the first
run). As a prize Puubi got moomin' mug with Haisuli in it.
The problems with Satiainen continue. He takes the contacts
perfectly in trainings and in our backyard before the competitions but
not in competitions.
The same day Croatian sheepdog Matti (Takkutukan Eliksiiri) and
his handler Malla Sarimo made their first clear run in A1 in Janakkala
(jumping) and they won their class! Excellent job Malla & Matti! This
really was a great day for Croatians in agility :-)
__________________________________________________________________________
09.08.08 Puubi's daughter Pimpo (Tuus Paniikkipilleri) won
one agility run with result 5 in A1 in Tampere with her handler Sarkku. Pimpo ran nice and fast.
Unfortunately she dropped one barn. Her other results from that day
were DISQ and 5 (slalom).
Puubi and Satiainen didn't do well at the same competition in
A3.Our POn Sipowicz made one v e r y slow run (within standard time)
and was palced 3rd.
__________________________________________________________________________
03.08.08 It was time for our Agility District Championships
and Puubi made two clear runs and won the title twice in-a-row (2007 &
2008) in A3. Here you can see Puubi's courses.
No succes for Satiainen in A3 this time... he was just barking and
acting crazy...he even ripped Tommi's t-shirt and broke my nail. What a
dog!
Sipowicz got bronze in A3 medium class.
Our standard team Puubi (CS), Satiainen (CS), Pimpo (CS) and
Raisa (Novascotian duck tolling retriever) were 4th in team
competition. All the others except Raisa made mistakes. Still, Pimpo's
run looked very nice. I believe Sarkku and Pimpo will do great in agility.
__________________________________________________________________________
02.08.08 Puubi's daughter Tiuku (Tuus Tikittäjä) started
her official agility career with her owner Nina Lakkapää. The first
two runs didn't go as Nina had planned... Tiuku was disqualified
twice in A1.
__________________________________________________________________________
26.-27.07.08 AWC qualifications took place in Helsinki, at
the same place where the AWC will take place in the end of September.

Michala in Slovakian team. Hope you very best Michala and Gera!
__________________________________________________________________________
13.07.08 Satiainen won in A3 for the first time! He had the
fastest time in his class and his result was 0. Actually he ran 2 clear
run today (once he was placed 4th) which is needed for next years
Finnish Championships. Also, now Satiainen is one step closer to the Finnish Agility Champion-title.
__________________________________________________________________________
04-06.7.08 Agirotu event took place in Ylöjärvi and this
year we could gather 3 Croatian Sheepdog teams for the event. There
were 2 teams in beginners class and they made fantastic job by winning
first two placements! There were 21 teams competing in that class.
Also there was a team gathered from dogs which have competed before.
They were placed 61/71. Here you can see the teams and individual
runs. Puubi's and Grom's (Mawlch Grom) daughter Pimpo started her
agility career with great results. Once she was placed 3/58 and once
she won A1 class with result 0 (63 dogs).
Our CS teams were also competing for the "BEST OUTFIT AWARD" but
didn't succeed this time. The competitors took their characters from
the serial "The Simpsons". So we had Homer, Marge, Lisa, Bart, Maggie,
Kursty the Clown, Willie, Patty & Selma Bouvier in our teams! You can
see our teams here.
__________________________________________________________________________
08.06.08 Today was a great day for our dogs.
Capo (Tuus Vekkuliverstas) from our breeding went to the Finnish
Championships for the Obedience teams. This was Capo's first
appearance in obedience ring and he did great with his handler Heidi.
Capo got 192,67 points out of 200. The whole team (4 participants in
a team) did great and they were placed 3rd in the competition! This

__________________________________________________________________________
14.10.07 A lot has happened since we updated these pages
last time... good things and bad things...
* In October PON bitch Lilla (Ally McBeal) from our breeding died
at the age of 7,5 years because of the serious problems in her back.
* In May PON bitch Viivi (Edith Bunker) from our breeding died
at the age of 5 years because of tumours in her kidneys.
* In June Viivi's mother and our lovely PON-granny Lita died
because of a tumour. Lita was 13 years old.
* In the beginning of July the annual Agi Breed event was held in
Vöyri. It was great to finally meet Satir's breeder Alen in person. He
was judgeing in Vöyri and he made excellent courses. Very different
than we are used to see here. Hopefully we'll meet soon again. Also,
there were 2 Croat pups from our breeding, Mopo (Matomobiili) and
Myyrä (Tohtori Sykerö). It was nice to meet them and their owners
Tuija and Satu.
* Immediately after the Agi Breed Event our Croat Puubi got very sick. We
had to take her to the vet who cut her small intestine.We're glad to
say that she got better very soon after the operation and is now in
great condition. What a shock that was to us!
* Croat pup Tiuku (Tikittäjä) from our breeding has been to 3 pup shows
during this summer and autumn with great results. She's been BOB-puppy
each time. Also Pimpo (Paniikkipilleri) has been to one show and one
match show. At the first show she was placed second after Tiuku and
she also got honor prize. At the match show Pimo was BIS4. Also one
Croat boy from our breeding Capo (Vekkuliverstas) went to a match
show and was placed all and all fourth best in all puppies.
* Puubi is the District Champion-07 in Agility! The individual
competition was very tight... Puubi was second in the first run and
fourth at the second run and all and all she won! In team run Puubi's
team was sovereign :-). Sipowicz got second with his midi team but
didn't had any success at individual runs.
* Sipowicz is the PON Agility Champion 2007 and his half-sister
Lilla was placed second with her owner Sarianna.Sipowicz is now ALMOST
Finnish Agility Champion. He won twice this summer with result 0, but
he still needs the prize from shows to get the titel. Now we must wait
his hair grow and then go to shows. This will happen in spring or
summer 2008.
05.03.07 This month we will be celebrating few birthdays and
we want to tell about them in advance. First our PON litter "Perhe on
pahin/Those were the days" will celebrate their 5th birthday (7.3.)! Congratulations
Tuus Edith Bunker "Viivi", Tuus Gloria "Lyyli", Tuus Meathead "Leevi"
and Tuus Archie Bunker "Sipowicz"!
The next day (8.3.) our young Croatian boy Satir will celebrate
his first birthday! Happy Birthday to Satir and all his brothers and
sisters around Europe!
In the end of March (30.3.) our PON litter "Ally McBeal" will

17.02.07 Two pups left today and we still have one pup here
for at least for a week. Our house is so silent now and we're playing
with the last pup as much as we can. He's the only pup in the litter
who reminds of his mother. He's just like Puubi was as a pup. He's silent,
jumps with excellent techniq and is not dominant at all.
15.02.07 Pups are 9 weeks old now and we still have 3 pups
running around the house.
30.01.07 There are new pics of each pup at the age of 6

Sheepdog link added.
25.01.07 Pups are 6 weeks old now. Everyday we let them

house. They really enjoy running and playing and it is fun to watch
them playing with each other.
21.01.07 There are new pics of each pup at the age of 5
weeks in Puppies section. Also, we still have dogs available, so if
you're interested, please contact us.

Our daughter Sanna is very helpful kennel girl and
today is her 7th birthday! Happy birthday Sanna!
Now all the pups know how to get off the puppy box and they all know
how to eat solid food. They are greedy pups. Well, two pups are too
gready so they are on a diet ;-)
11.01.07 Pups are 4 weeks old now. They look sweet when they
run on the floor...specially the ones without tail. They are like
little teddybears.
08.01.07 There are new pics of each pup at the age of 3
weeks added in Puppies section. There are also new pics of the litter
added in Gallery.
First two pups have learned how to climb off the
puppy box. Great job boys!
06.01.07 Today we found two of the pups running wild in the
room. They got to the floor when holding tight Puubi's nipples.
Today we gave the pups solid food for the very first time and boy,
it was delicious, they all enjoyed it a lot.
We put new pics of each pup to the Puppies section. We also put
some pup pics to the Gallery.
04.01.07 Pups are 3 weeks old today! We decided to give the
names for the pups from the classic children's tv show Doctor
Snuggles. The names sound lovely in Finnish (and because our children
wish us to do so) so this time we'll give the names in Finnish.
01.01.07 Great news for us Finnish CS lovers; Alen Marekovic
from Croatia is coming to Finland next July to judge some competition
in our great Agility Breed Event!
31.12.06 New pics off 2 weeks old pups added in Puppies
section. There are also new pics in gallery. Croatian sheepdog data
base and three other links added in links.
24.12.06 Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!
19.12.06 Today our vet Sirkka Pyhälä came to us to check our
pups' tails for registration. In Finland we need vet's certificate of
tails that are not completely long and this must be done within 10
days after the pups are born.
23.12.06 Happy 5th Birthday Puubi!
16.12.06 Puubi's pups are growing. See them in a webcam here.
14.12.06 What a day! Puubi delivered 9 pups; 6 dogs and 3
bitches. See the proud mama with her puppies here. This litter has intresting collection of tails; natural
bobtails, bobtails, short tail and long tails. The first pup was born
at 5 am and the last at 12 am. Read more about the pups here. There are
also pics of them.
09.-10.12.06 it was time for Finnish Winner 2006 Dog Show in
Helsinki. Our sweet little junior Satir participated to the show at the age of 9
months and 1 day. All and all there were 3 Croatian sheepdogs in the
show. The judge was Finnish Anneli Sutela and this is what she said
about Satir: "Excellent type. Well proportioned. Nice head and full of
expression. Ears are bit fasten down in the head. Still a bit high
from behind when standing and moving. Good quarters and angulation.
Nice coat, moves well. Promising." And this is what she gave him:
Mawlch Satir EXC1 JUN1, best dog, SERT, BOB Finnish Junior
Winner-06 & Finnish Winner-06
09.12.06 Soon-to-be-daddy Mawlch Grom passed the BH-test
in Slovenia. Grom got excellent points 96/100 of obedience and special
honorable mention from the judge because he was the best dog in the
exam! Congratulations Grom and Jasna!
08.12.06 Two pics of very pregnant Puubi. Still one week to
go... Pic1, Pic2.
26.11.06 See the new pics of our dogs; here is pregnant
Puubi, here all our dogs, here Nordic-Häme cup winner and here Tommi
and Puubi.
26.11.06 Gallery is finally opened with more than 60 pics.
25.11.06 Sipowicz competed in Tampere but without success.
He was dq. Satir was supporting his friend and made something extra
for this competition. He locked himself and Sipowicz in our car (of
course the car keys were in the car too). Fortunately our dear friend
Marika Aartio drove like Räikkönen and gave Tommi the spear keys.
Unfortunately it didn't help Sipowicz's course any way.
The same day they awarded the winners of Nordic-Häme Cup. This is
unofficiell cup with 6 different competitions included. We are proud
to tell that our detective Sipowicz won medium class so now he is the
winner of Nordic-Häme Cup, medium class!
17.11.06 Ultra sound confirmed that Puubi is pregnant. You
could also tell that from looking at her huge nipples and fat belly.
Puubi is SO pregnant now; she needs cuddling all the time and she
sure gets it from everyone. We're expecting the litter to be born
before Christmas. Read more about the expected litter here.
17.11.06 Here is 8 months old Satir, and here Satir and his
pregnant friend Puubi.
12.11.06 Agility competition in horse riding ring in
Tampere. Sipowicz ran fluently and quite fast but the course was much
too easy, so he was 6th (17 dogs). The judge was Jarmo Jämsä. After
the competition we saw CS Matti who had grown a lot. Matti was
handsome and well-mannered young man.
09.-12.11.06 World Dog Show 2006 in Poznan, Poland. See some
of the Polish Lowland Sheepdogs' results here (138 dogs). Junior World
Winner in Croatian Sheepdogs was young male Hugo Certisa, World Winner
and BOS was Leo Slavonski Brod. See pics of him here: pic1, pic2.
World Winner and BOB was Dona Certisa. Congratulations!
22.10.06 This year's last competition for Puubi in Helsinki.
She ran nice although handler wasn't so satisfied with the run.
Still result 0 and second place for Puubi in this competition (40 dogs). This was
really nice way to close this season.
20.10.06 Melancholy day because today Jasna and Grom left
back home. The 10 days they were here went so fast. It was really
great to have Jasna and Grom here. Grom was everything we wanted him
to be and much much more. Jasna is so sweet person that we already
miss her lot. We really hope to meet Jasna again; maybe in AWC in
Helsinki or maybe even before that. Here are pics of Jasna and Grom
running obstacles in our back yard: pic1, pic2. Here is a pic of Grom eyes closed.
19.10.06 Unofficial agility competition in Tampere in
Hervanta. A day to remember, because it was SO cold and we had to be
there SO late in the evening. There were many competitors so we were back
home very late and we were truly frozen. Well, all the others, except
Grom who ran like maniac. He didn't seem to care about the cold
weather. Grom ran two runs, both disq. but with
unbeliavable speed.
In a way it was a good thing that it was so cold
because now Jasna was finally willing to go to sauna! It didn't look like she
would have enjoyed it much but maybe she just needs more practise ;-)
16.10.06 Grom and Puubi were in action again. See the pics of
them in action: pic1, pic2.
15.10.06 Today Grom and Puubi finally did it! But before
that there was an agility competition. Grom and Jasna competed in Tampere in horse riding
ring which is excellent place for agility competitions. First run was
again very fast and fluent, great contacts and slalom again.
Unfortunately Grom jumped beside the tyre so the run was disq.
Otherwise his run was excellent. Grom also ran the unofficial jumping
run which was also disq. Dispite the disqualifications his running is really
entertaining to watch. Breathtaking, I would say ;-) See Grom running
here:
1st run,
2nd run.
In that same competition PONs had their own agility Championships.
There were only 3 PONs; our Lita and his son Sipowicz and daughter
Lilla (owner Sarianna Sarmastola).
Sipowicz ran fluently and more agile than ever before this year!
He didn't make any mistakes and with the result 0 he is now PON
Agility Champion 2006 Sipowicz!. Sipo's mother Lita was second, and sister Lilla
third. See the PONs running
here:
Sipowicz 1st run,
2nd run,
Lita 1st run,
2nd run,
Lilla 1st run,
2nd run.
So immediately when we got home Grom was all over Puubi and they
did it :-)
14.10.06 Grom and Jasna competed two runs in Turku. Grom is
unbeliavable fast dog, so eager to work. He did excellent slalom and
contacts. The first run his result was 15 and the second run disq.
Still pleasure to watch Jasna & Grom working together on the courses. Judge
in these runs was Anders Virtanen. See Grom running here:
1st run,
2nd run.
13.10.06 It didn't look like "true love was in the air",
although Grom and Puubi were really trying. So we took Puubi to
insemination because the progesterone test told this
was the right day for mating.
10.10.06 Exciting day for us; Jasna and Grom came to
Finland! We have really expected for this day to come. See a pic of
Jasna and Grom here.
07.10.06 Croatian large team won gold in Agility World
Championships in Basel!!! Congratulations Alen Marekovic & Cap, Tanja
Janes & CROATIAN SHEEPDOG Mishka, Domagoj Vidovic & Hita!!! Here is a pic that shows how Satir celebrated the historical victory...
Great success for Finnish team also, the medium team won gold and
Jari Suomalainen & Frodo won gold in medium individual! CONGRATULATIONS!!!
30.09.06 Puubi is in heat!
23.09.06 Friskies Cup Final in Helsinki, but no success for
our dogs; both Sipowicz and Puubi were disqualified.
17.09.06 Excellent day for Puubi and Tommi in agility 1st
Choice Cup competition in Tampere. Puubi won with the only
0-result in her class (22 dogs). Tommi and the audience were about to get a
heart attack because of the way Puubi run A. She just jumped from
zone to zone. Tommi was about to interrupt her running but didn't
because Puubi seemed to be ok. We just hope she won't do that again!
Sipowicz wasn't as slow as usual. He made a nice clear run and came
6th in his class (14 dogs).
12.09.06 We're planning to use Grom (Mawlch Grom) for our
Puubi this autumn. Read more about the planned litter here.
11.09.06 Tarja was happily surprised when she receaved email from
Polona Bonac from Slovenia. Polona is the owner of Satir's sister, "Saj"
(Mawlch Shay). Polona sent lovely pics of beautiful Saj:
pic1, pic2,
pic3, pic4, pic5(here is mama Cita also). It was nice to hear that
Saj is just like Satir; noisy little devil. So, we're not alone ;-)
09.09.06 There were 2 runs for Puubi and Sipowicz in
Ylöjärvi. The place was excellent for competitions. Sipowicz had a
clear first run and he came 3rd in his class. Puubi had result 10
from first run. See Sipowicz running here and Puubi running here.
The second run was DQ with Sipowicz (once again he
was slow and stubborn to go where he wanted...) but Puubi made
excellent run without mistakes. Finally she won her class with the
fastest time. See her
second run here. Here you can see the happy medalists. This was
Puubi's 5th winning within 4 months! Also, with the result today she
can participate the AWC qualifications next year!
02.09.06 Puubi Puubson and Detective Sipowicz competed in
agility competition in Orivesi. They both had 2 runs. In first run
Puubi was fast as usual and didn't make any mistakes. Puubi won the
class with the fastest time. The second run she made a mistake in
tunnel so her result was 5 and her placement was 10th.
It's not usual to be dissapointed when dog gets 2nd placement in
competition. This time it was a dissappointment with Sipowicz since
he was so close to get the titel Finnish Agility Champion. It's not
easy to achieve this titel, dog needs 3 winnings with result 0 in
class 3 to get the titel. Sipo has won twice so we're still hunting
the last winning...
The first run Sipowicz came 2nd and the second run she came
5th with the result 0.
We are proud to say that both Puubi and Sipowicz have the
0-results needed for next year's Finnish Agility championships!
27.08.06 Our three dogs competed in Agility District Championships.
It was the first competition this year for our almost 13 years old
Lita. She sure surprised us all by running two clear runs
and being 3rd in the competition! See the happy medi class
medalists here.
Lita's son, Sipowicz, competed against his mother and lost ;-) He came
5th. Sipowicz also competed in our club's team and won the team
competition! Excellent job! See the happy team Champions here.
We got high hopes for Puubi in this competition but unfortunately in
first run she
knocked the first bar down. In jumping run Puubi was 2nd and in
the large team competition she got bronze. Jippiaiee!
19.08.06 Two runs for Puubi and Sipowicz in Valkeakoski. The
first run Puubi was dq because of bad handling. The second run she won
with result 0 and the fastest time in her class (31 dogs). This is her first run and this is
her second run. See the medalists with the judge Kari Jalonen here and
the results here.
Sipowicz just don't run the way he should. The first run he got
some overtime. See his first
run here. The second run he got result 0
and 4th place (18 dogs). See his second run here.
In the evening we took a long walk with pon-girl Viivi (Tuus Edith Bunker) from our breeding. Satir just adored her!
13.08.06 Two runs for Puubi and Sipowicz in Vesilahti.
Today was really Puubi's day, the first run she was second (2/19) and the
second run she won (1/19) with the fastest time and with the only
0-result in her class. You can see Puubi's first run
here and second run
here.
Here are pics run 1 and run 2 of happy medalists ;-)
All the results are here.
This wasn't Sipowicz's day. He was slow and tired as he has been all
this summer. His handler is about to get a nervous breakdown with him,
since he's so different in trainings. Here is Sipo's first run and
here his second run. (The video may be hopping because the camera-man
had Satir in her other hand while filming).
12.08.06 Agility Competition in Vesilahti, near our hometown. Both
Puubi and Sipowicz had two runs. The first run was very fluent from
Puubi and she came third (the first two places went to this year's AWC
competitor). The second run was ruined by handler because he wanted to
try something "special"- so the run was disqualified.
All the results are here.
Sipowicz is really suffering from the warm weather. He just doesn't
run :-( He knocked a hurdle in his first run and was disqualified the
second run.
27.07.06 There was a competition in Tampere and both, Puubi
and Sipowicz took part. And they both made a mistake in A-zone.
Here is Puubi's run and here is Sipowicz's run. We also met
two Croat owners and mudi owners there in the competition, so it was
lots of fun for our Croat pup Satir who wants to play with everyone.
22.-23.07.06 The qualifications to the AWC this year was held
in Vantaa. Puubi took part and we're happy that she has the chance to
get to the team. She is fast and agile dog but what should we do with her
handler? We're very pleased that Puubi ran all the 5 runs (that is
more than she did last year) but unfortunately she got 2 runs
disqualified.
Sipowicz didn't take part in the qualifications although he had the
results needed. We decided there's no reason to take him there because
he seems bored or tired or whatever...
15.07.06 We got Puubi's and Sipowicz's eyes checked. Everything
is ok, said the doctor, Sanna Elfving.
08.-09.07.06 Agi-Breed event in Janakkala. Unfortunately there
are so few Croatian sheepdogs in Finland that we couldn't compete as a
team but hopefully next year!
Our PON Club sent a team, so our Sipowicz was running there. He got a
nice run in the beginners team (of course, he's running in class 3!)
Here you can see the results of our PON team.
01.07.06 Lilla (Fin Ch BH TK2 Tuus Ally McBeal) from our
breeding competed in the team obedience Finnish championships in
Hämeenlinna. This was the first competition for Lilla and her owner
Sarianna in winner class.
18.-19.06.06 The Finnish Agility Championships were in sunny
Lappeenranta. One could also bet for the dogs competing in large
class. Puubi had a nice agility run and got to the final run.
Unfortunately her result from the last run was 10 so her final
placement in Championships was 21st. There were 148 dogs in large
class. This is Puubi's first run, this is her second run.
Sipowicz dosn't like the warm weather and it really was warm in
Lappeenranta. Sipowicz was very slow and finally he was disqualified.
You can watch his run
here.
Although we didn't have much of a success, we were very pleased with
our trip. We met our old friends (Special Greetings to family Terävä)
and got some new friends. Warm regards also to family Vallius, who
drove many hours just to meet a Croatian Sheepdog.
11.06.06 Puubi is "warming up" for the Finnish Agility
Championships. She came second in Agility run in Nokia (25 dogs). The
second run she was disqualified. You can see her first run here and
second run here.
PON Sipowicz had also two runs and he didn't make any mistakes.
See him running here and here.
04.06.06 This was a historical day for Croatian sheepdogs in
Finland! Today Puubi had two runs in Jyväskylä. In the first
competition she came second (28 dogs) and the last she won (27 dogs).
This was Puubi's third winning so now she is Finnish Agility Champion!
Puubi is also the first Croatian sheepdog in our country which is
double Champion (Fin AgCh& Fin Ch).
28.05.06 Puubi is now officially beautiful. We were in a dog show in
Järvenpää where Puubi got the titel Finnish Show Champion. Judge was Maret
Kärdi from Estonia.
27.05.06 Sipowicz won his class in agility competition in Valkeakoski.
Unfortunately not with result 0. You can watch Sipowicz running here
and Puubi running here. We watched the video and saw that handler did
not take Sipowicz's slalom till the end as he should have...
25.05.06 There was an agility competition in Tampere for getting to
the Serti-Cup final. Puubi had a great day once again. She came second
in agility course (2/30) and third in jumping course (3/30). She came
second in total results and will compete in the final. You will find
the results here and our Puubi with her prizes here.
Sipowicz got the 0-results that he needed to get to the Finnish agility
championships in June and the AWC qualifications in July.
20.05.06 Tommi started calling Satir with a name that suits Satir well
but is not very beautifull. Satir is called "Satiainen" which means
crab louse in Finnish.
Tommi has taken Satiainen to his agility training. Satiainen keeps
noise and runs the tunnel. He has also run the dog walk by accident.
But no worry, he did it like a master.
15.05.06 Our new puppy, Satir is getting along very well with our
other dogs. Satir is a happy, agile pup. He's wrestling with our
children all day long and the children just adore him.
13.05.05 Puubi had a successful day in agility competition in Lieto.
She was third in agility course (33 competitors) and second in jumping
course (35 competitors). You can find the results here.
Also with these results Puubi got the right to compete in Finnish
agility championships next June and also in the AWC qualifications in
July.
06.05.06 A new familymember came to our house. His name is Mawlch
Satir, he's a Croatian sheepdog, and he's 8,5 weeks old. Satir's father
Atos and another handsome fellow, Cane came with the same flight from
Croatia. Billion Thanks to Satir's breeder Alen Marekovic for making
all the arrangements. And welcome to Finland boys!

26.03.2006 Sipowicz won agility competition, medium3 class with the
