Vini BOB at Black & White -show

We had a wonderful day today at the yearly unofficial Black & White show in Tuusula. Vini was BOB and BIS2 and his daughter Quaint Nuez Moscado BOS and BIS-junior at her very first show - and there were over 30 scotties! The judge was Maren Bichel, from kennel Sir Darnley's, Germany. We are so delighted, thank you Maren!

Vini gathering new experiences

Vini had a luxurious week when I was travelling for work and he could enjoy the company of other people. He had long walks both at home in Espoo and on the coast of Helsinki. He learned to know new play mates (e.g. a giant schnauzer) and slept in new beds and on new sofas, cleaned his beard on new clean carpets and marked his new territory. He also gave a shock to a postman by barking behind the door, but after two nights realised that postmans are normal in a block of flats. He saw things he will not see at home in the suburbs of Espoo.

When I fetched him home this morning, he seemed to be thinking: ok, you are back, let's go then. No overwhelming welcoming. I guess that is what scotties are like. They know that you are there for them - and they are right!
