Bobby has been training well and has taken part this spring in couple of unofficial working events in Estonia.

Säde's points were: 0, 6, 10, 0 :)
But we did not get the last place and we are very happy to have been part of this historical and friendly event!

We had an excellent training day with Sari and Matti from Finland. I had Säde to train and it went with some surpraises like it is always with her :) First she surprised me with being really great and heeling nicely (never specially teached it to her so far). By the end of the day she got bored I believe, as it was really a long day and after nice long distance retrieve she decided half way back that this is enough for the princess and went to search for the more interesting smells in the forest :P Got her back soon, but decided that the day is over for her and was only looking and listening at the last two tasks :)

I was head organiser of NOME-B tests on 3-4 September, with Mr Antti Nurmi judging from Finland
First day I was acting also as secretary, so had a good look on all the participants. Second day was much harder as the weather was warm and I also had to run around with the birds :) Great photos by Pille-Riin deliver the moods of the days very accurately :)

Last weekend, 13-14. August Nordic Championship Working Test for Golden Retrievers was held in Finland, Messilä.
In a very last moment, I decided to drive up there and see how it all works and perhaps take some photos too if possible, as it is only 2 hour ferry and 1,5 hour car drive to north :)

I will upload all my photos here in Flickr, but it will take some time until all are done.

It was really wet that day :)

Me and my camera on the back :)

We participated in qualifying test again with Säde - as we are far from ready to participate in working test or hunting test - and I think this is great opportunity to keep ourselves in the mood and up to date.

Osalesime Sädega teist korda tõukatsel, sest minu meelest on see hea võimalus endid vormis hoida enne kui me millalgi saame valmis, et tasemekatsetel osaleda.
