Year 2013

Year 2013 was great. IWT in Germany, First prize in Cold game, Grande final in Finnish Golden Champion and having the best controlled dog award. And only Golden in Finland who received result in field trials (A3) so I am happy :)
Besides of good prizes from competitions, there is one thing which is top...

Most of all I should never forget why I have taken this dog. It´s been taken mainly help us to hunt. I never could dream to have this kind of dog which is so specialised for hunting. This dog lives and breaths for hunt. He hunts with every and all his senses and body.
Most of all good hunting situations makes me more happy than reward we get from competitions.

Vili hunts mostly for himself. That usually highes my blodpressure... I am subborn and I never give up, so finally the lamp on his head was turned on, and he realized that it is better hunt when I allow. I have to admit, he still hunts for himself, but with my rules now :) 

Field Trial 20.09.2013

Our second field trial and we got A3. Vili is the only golden who has received result in field trials so far this year in Finland.
