*14.9.2008 The Little Fellow is doing great and is a Big Boy at 3 weeks, 3300g.

*24.8.2008 A very special curly puppy has been born on August the 22nd. Racycurl's Fram Til Caballus gave birth to one black dog puppy. The puppy's sire is Aust Ch Blazeaway Bowser. This is the second time Freya does Curly history by producing progeny from frozen semen to a dog that has lived over 20 years ago. Bowser was the #1 Curly in Australia in the -80's. His first son was imported to Finland in 1989 (Blazeaway Out for a Duck) - this dog has had big influence in the Finnish Curly breeding.

*19.8.2008 We have been to Finnish Curly Club Working Championships in Rantsila 16-17.8. It started with Open Class (2 Curlies) and Winner Class (5 Curlies) on Saturday and Beginner Class on Sunday. Hasse was entered first time in Winner and this was his first start in 3 years - with not much training :-) - but he did very well, resulted in third prize and finally he was 3rd best Curly in the Chapionships!

These lovely photos are by Sanna Sierilä!

Otzo started in beginners on Sunday. We decided that he would be handled by Hilkka Lindberg (owner of Otzo's mother Freya). Unfortunately Otzo got very confused of the croud of spectators and his "new" handler - so his performance wasn't what we expected and they interrupted the test.

                                   

This weekend we got very good news from Ucraine - Caballus Black Pearl (Holly) - was BIS-junior and BIS-2 at an all breed national show

                                 Holly is owned and handled by Victor Shkurupiy

 

*14.7.2008 Finnish Curly Club Weekend had a super ending with Hannie's Caballus Kingfisher winning  BIS!

The weekend started with Retriever Working Test (this certificate is needed to gain any Champion titles or to enter to real cold game working tests). The minimum age to participate is 8 months. The Otzo x Alli litter turned 8 months on the day of the test: 10.7. Tytti (Caballus Black Velvet) had a go and it was fantastic performance with very sponaneus retrieves with all game both from land and water and at the end tracking the rabbit. She is such an AMAZING LITTLE RETRIEVER! From all 6 Curlies entered to this test only 2 passed, the other one to pass was Hannie's 4-year old Darwin.

We had training sessions the next day and the other littermates showed same attitude to retirieving -some of these got to retrieve game first time in their lives but it was no problem at all. I am so pleased with the working enthusiasm in these Black- littermates.

The Club Show on Sunday the 13th had the biggest entry our club ever had: 24 puppies and 70 adults entered under Australian Jamie Hubbard. Caballus did very well again..... Int, GB, S, N, DK, NL, D, VDH, LUX, Port Ch, WW-00,01,02, NW-04 Caballus Kingfisher added one more crown and title to his long list of merits. Andy was showen in excellent condition at 10 years of age and that resulted in both Best Veteran in Show and Best in Show! Best of opposite sex was Caballus Yuhellus from intermediate class. For full results and photos please check the Club Web site.

Best puppy (and runner up best dog puppy in show)7-9-months was Caballus Black Pepper, Caballus Black Velvet was Best Bitch puppy in Show! Black Pepper (left) - Black Rod - Black Tracker                                         Caballus Kingfisher & Caballus Yuhellus  Caballus Breeder Group BIS

On Friday the 13th Otzo had his first start in beginner working test - that resulted in 3rd prize, which made me very happy! He missed the other one of double markes in water, and some deliveries didn't come in my hand, but on the whole well done in quite a difficult tets!

Elina and Kinine participated in their first dressage competition in  4 years last Sunday - and won the class (36 starting equipage)!

The most well known Finnish all-rounder Hans Lehtinen has published his book about his life in the kennel- and show world. In one chapter of this book he is asked if there are any specially good breeders in Finland. And he answers: "Tiina Illukka (Kennel Caballus) breeds Curly Coated Retrievers. The breed is quite small in Finland, but she has absolutely magnificent dogs. Tiina is a good example to prove that even a vet can be a good breeder". Thank you, Hasse, for these kind words!

Otzo
 

*6.4.2008 The working test season got started today! We participated with Otzo in the unofficial working test "Pirkan Dummyt" in the Curly team. Otzo did not too bad, his result was 49 points outof 60! In the individual competition this would have ment a 4th place of 40 all breed retrieivers!
