went to the stockholm show over the weekend plus to see and hopefull my new liver boy fcr.
the show was on the same level as lka,
meet up with the breeder and saw the boy for a few mins as he was first in the ring at 9am,he was a very happy boy no problem with other dog around he was in a dog crate with another bitch,when he came out he was all over the place and no lead control has he lives in a family home and the word is sit or down not stand,so i thought the breeder got her hands cut out with this happy go lucky boy .
he was the youngest in the class of 17 he was hard work on the stand but when he moved he moved very well for a 9 month old pup,
over there they get a red or blue  ribbon he got a red one,so he went back in the the ring again and was place 6th.the judge spoke to the breeder stating that he was a happy baby boy but a very promising dog,
the breeder said that they only place to 5th over there like us here in the uk,but beacuse the judge like him she give him a purple ribbon as well.hope i got that right
after his event in the ring andrew and i took him for a walk outside making shore at he was going close to other dogs to see what he was going to do,he was so layed back and happy, he couldnt care less,there was 10 other uk frc friends that came for the trip getting their hand on him,bye going over him and moving him up and down and having their say about him,

you go all that way and you bump into people that you see at the uk shows not knowing that they where not going too,it was a great weekend specialy in the ice bar to,stockholm city was a safe palce to walk around very clean and very busy with christmas shopper didnt do alot of that as most of the shop where the same in the uk.the express train from the airport to the city was great,would go back there again

The purple ribbon is an HP (hederspris, roughly translates as prize of honour) which is given to out particularly promising puppies/juniors at champ.shows or to veterans in exceptional condition. :)
