 After some recent bad luck at our last working test (one silly zero), this weekend brought a bit more luck and better results! Another long trip behind us, but so worth it. At the Working Test in Melník/CZ, organized by Retriever Sport CZ and judged by Ian Lohoar and Graham Wilson (UK), in the E class with 27 starters: Duckmoors Call Me Neema “Neema” (FTW Loveloch Valentino x Kaliture Toffee Crisp) 1st place excellent 20/20/20/18 (lost 2 points because I was “sleeping” and didn’t use the whistle at the right time — sorry, Neema!) Duckmoors Dreamcatcher “Toby” (Moscargrange Dappa x Duckmoors All That Jazz) 2nd place excellent - just 1 point behind Neema! Congratulations Eva & Toby! Hard work really pays off! In the afternoon, after a very long wait for the V class (unfortunately we couldn’t leave the seniors in the car to rest because it was too hot), they had to spend hours waiting for their class, staying on the leash and walking around with the youngsters. This completely drained Finn, and he sadly finished with one zero. Anyway, with our veterans, it’s all about giving them a good time and letting them feel they are still important to us. On the end, only one veteran survived: Kaliture Toffee Crisp (Neema’s mom and Toby’s grandma) 1st place – not high scores, but she gave it her all, pity making blinds from marks , but being handled with enthusiasm! She refused to give up, especially on the last test. Thank you to the organizers for nice event and judges for the nice exercises, fair but strict judging. Special thanks to my daughter who stayed at home and took care of the rest of the dogs, so I was able to travel for extra days! Another adventure and memories to treasure!  Great News! Cooper's eyes test results are in!
Cooper – Duckmoors Brave Skaterboy, recently underwent comprehensive eye testing, and the results couldn’t be better - ECVO 25/02/2025 all clear and unaffected!
