'Moses' winning his first CC and BOB in his very first official show!
Moses With Touch Holy Moses has done a superb start in show rings! Co owner Antti Hokkanen has shown him now 4 times, and every time he has won BOB. 18.4.04 was held Hämeenlinna Group show, where Jorma Silta was judging. This was Moses' first official show, since he became 9 months old just 3 days before this show. He enjoyed his day in show and
made best debut we could expect; he won CC, Best of Breed and later on BIG-2! Most happy thing is that he indeed seems to love showing himself and moving proudly around the ring. He has got excellent substance already now, so he is ready for
showing more in many shows soon and at summer time also, which we wait with great excitement of course.
Big congratulations and thanks to co owner Antti Hokkanen, who is handling Moses so well and making this all possible.

After few unsure moments in the beginning he showed very beautifully. Two shows so far, two times Best of Breed puppy! Pitty we dont have BIS puppy competitions in Finland anymore. Congratulations to co owner Antti Hokkanen.
Adamant's Golden Boy continued his way as 1. ESS male in Finland at these times, he won again males, and the old
dad Adamant's Superman was 3. best male and BOB veteran, shortlisted to 10 best veterans in show under Liz Cartledge, UK.
Frida Adamant's Dreams Are Free enjoyed her time in ring and won one more Best of Breed to her credit. Unfortunately she was then little bit lazy in final ring that day.
Our breedersclass was Best of Breed as well.

and took later prestigious 2. Best of Group FCI 8 being best spaniel of the day!! Congratulations again to Saila,
and thank for Sanna and Sami Kavèn for great help of giving our team their car, when own went broken, without this probably all of our team had stayed just at home.
Our dogs are again getting back their condition and show mood after lazy winter days; even the old Adamant's Superman
