Goblins of the Garden

This is Dice and Otto taking care of the new flowers. Nothing special, just an average evening at the "Hotel"..

The show report is ready!

Sabine and Peer were quick again, and have completed the report on the Röhrsdorf show last weekend. You can see all results, the winners and a huge number of great photos here:

Tolle Arbeit Sabine und Peer!!!!!!!!!

New shelties at the Hotel: who would have thought...

I did not return from Germany with an empty box. I really did not want to have any more shelties, BUT...
I had the pleasure to meet Ms. Petra Linner in Röhrsdorf (who drove the long way there from Bayern - South of Germany). She is behind the caviary "vom hohen Stein", and breeds longhairs in particolour. I had been visiting her site regularly for a very long time, but I could see her animals "live" here for the first time. I liked these two below at the first sight, and I decided to buy them because their pedigrees are also "Hammer" (I think German people say that when they like something very much :o)

This is Salvatore vom hohen Stein, sheltie boar in tortoiseshell-white:

This girl is Wendina vom hohen Stein, sheltie in tortoiseshell-white:

At the end of the show, I was very pleased to know that Salvatore's little coronet son (Yambo von hohen Stein) won Baby BIS 3.

Judging in Röhrsdorf/Dresden (Germany)

On 5-6. April, I had the pleasure to judge at a show in Germany. The organizers (Sabine and Peer Mannheim - and their stuff of many enthusiastic people) did a great job, we had almost 250 entries, exhibitors from all around Germany, also many from Czechia and Poland (they did win a lot!) and 2700 (!) visitors.
Hopefully, you can read my detailed report on my site (http://www.brentwoodhotel.hu/) soon.
I just want to say a big THANK YOU here to all people I met during the weekend, and congratulate on the nice cavies we judged.
"Total geil!" - I think Herbert would say something like that... :o)

It was an honour to judge with these wonderful people:

Not always an easy job... But very enjoyable. :o)
