Nordic Winner show in Stockholm 2007 We spent extremely nice show day once again in Sweden. Our success was not really great, but anyway it was so nice to see all Swedish friends! There are many ambitious Lagotto breeders in Sweden which are making such a great work for our breed and have such a great plans and thoughts. Once again we found something very interesting new and even booked some new puppies! =) We had "Tina" Ch. Foogel Perla Brava and "Sebastian" Ch. Foogel Sebastiano with us and they both were placed 5th in very big champion classess and defeated some of the most succesfull Lagottos in Sweden. "Hillo" Ch. Foogel Scirocco was 3rd in open class. Both "Hillo" and "Sebastian" were members of their father Tino's progeny class and they won BOB-progeny class. Warm congratulations for: - Björn and family of "Errol's" Bonebreakers Viandante very first CC at this very big show! Errol is a sire of Foogel P-litter- - Lillian of Ch.

Foogel Prima Ballerina "Bionda" won biches junior class and got also tittle Finnish Junior Winner 2007 and reserve-CC. We are so proud of them! But otherwise we didn't got anything. All of our 3 champion males got very good and in bitches there were 6 champion bitches and 2 were not placed and they were "Peppi" and "Tina"....But anyway we had a lovely day with our friends once again!

Everyone should really meet this lovely boy in real to undertand how special Springer he is! But not just our dogs did well at this show also dogs who are really near relatives to our dogs! "Sebatian's" three lovely daughters from Vieni Qui kennel, whose mother is Ch. Emi Della Metaurense, were shown at the puppy show which was at the same place as special. Congratulations for breeder Niina and owners!
And we are also happy to tell that our late "Hilda's" Ch. Adamant's Este Lauder grandaughter, Adamant's Let Me See "Sophie" was Best in Show at this show. It is very special for me to see "Hilda's" spirit still going on! Congratulations Tarja!

Anna got her puppies 31st of October "Anna" whelped a lovely litter of 6 boys and only one girl whose colour is white and brown. Boys are 3 brown ones, 2 white and brown and 1 white and orange. We had many bitch request for specially this litter around so unfortunately this one little girl is going to stay in Foogel team . As there are this many boys and we have really high expectation on this litter, some more foreign show puppy request would be welcome. This litter really combines some of the most interesting Lagotto lines in the world and its inbreeding grade in 5 generations is 0%. "Anna" is already dam of 5 CC winners in her 2 earlier litters and "Sebastian" is just so exceptional, so we really believe their high value as a brood bitch and stud dog too!

Senja and Leena spent an interesting show weekend in Joensuu with "Peppi", "Hillo" and "Fabio". Our hotel was great, espcecially its restaurant. This was the very first possible weekend for our S-litter to finish their tittle after their 2nd birthday. We were dreaming that our 3 musketeers could finish maybe their tittles, but didn't really trusted it happens, but our team did super work! =) At first on Saturday Springer boy "Fabio" Foogel On The Spot ( Foogel Mr Fantastic - Foogel Love Me Do) showed us how wonderfull young stallion he is and won Best male, his first CC and finally BOB. He was also shortlisted in the group. Springers were judged by Laurent Pichard. Thank you Maria, you have taken such a good care of a very special "Fabi"! Sorry no photos from the group ring because of pouring rain!
Lagottos didn't do that well.....The judge was suppose to be our higly appreciated Hans Lehtinen, but unfortunately they changed the judge for an unknown "star" from Portugal.....BOB-puppy was sweet Foogel Spumante, congratulations Anne&Uma. BOS was Foogel Crostatina "Peppi" who has now decided that now she is full with showing and didn't want to walk towards the judge again......It seems that "Peppi" show year starst to be finished as our queen is just making her own tricks in the ring and fooling Senja 10-0.....It's such a pitty as in the group ring she is showing to perfection, but in breed judgement she is making these tricks....our artist! Very talented junior handler Hanna Lemmetti was competing in junior handler with "Peppi", because she had just lost BOB and we thought that it is good to relax a bit and go in the ring with some other person. Or course in junior handler ring she was showing soooo well and finally this really great couple won older age group and finally ended best junior handler of the day in the group ring. Conratulations Hanna, you did such a great work! Allthought our queen "Peppi" thought that she had won atleast a group.....
Our very special team really enjoied our stay in the hotel and relaxed on Saturday evening really well! "Peppi" and "Hillo" were laying on the beds and "Fabi's" favourite hobby was retrievering his toy duck in the corridor. Our hotel was located just by a very beatiful river and big park which was really nice with dogs. Our friends just would have liked to swim and didn' really understand when we said no...
On Sunday at Joensuu international show "Fabio" Foogel On the Spot started again. On this time he won intermediate class and ended 3rd Best male with reserve-CC. Really well done again. Springers were judged by Stefan Sinko.
Then after this we got a very very nice SMS from Riihimäki special where Sinikka and Tuula were with "Sebastian" Foogel Sebastiano and "Sinna" Foogel Siena. "Sebastian" had won BOB and CC which means that he is now Finnish Cahmpion Foogel Sebastiano and "Sinna" had won BOS with CC which means that she is now Finnish Champion FinJW-06 Foogel Siena. Wow, 2 champions at the same day!!!! At Joensuu Lagottos started really late. Today Toini and boys joined us too! "Ruben" Foogel Pittoresco was showing first and he won his class and BOB-junior, then was time for " Hillo Hiljander" Foogel Scirocco. He had really listened well the results from Riihimäki and was really showing his best and won his class. Then was time for "Tino" Foogel Giottino and he was 2nd in champion class. Finally the order in Best male was following:
In bitches "Peppi" continued her tricks but won anyway Best Bitch and CACIB. Finally BOB was "Hillo" Foogel Sciroccon and BOS again "Peppi" Foogel Crostatina!

Jämijärvi special 18.2.2007 We visited quick at Jämijärvi special with "Romppu" and "Fuuga". Also "Vito" and Johanna joined us at Jämijärvi. Results were really nice once again. Young Foogel Vivido "Vito" won BOB and his first CC and Foogel Pietra Preziosa "Romppu" won BOS and got her last CC, so she is now Finish Champion! Our "Fuuga" Magic Storm's Flizan was also shown very first time and this little girl really enjoid her day and was shown extremely happily and proud, but the judge thought that she was looking as a puppy and didn't like her. Quite strange if 8 months old puppy is looking too puppy! ;) Also young Springer girl Foogel Kimperly "Stella" was shown by her talented owner Elina. Stella won her class and was finally 3rd Best Bitch with reserve-CC. Really well done as Best Bitch was Adaman't Let Me See and 2nd Best Bitch Adamant's Dreams are Free.....Congatulations Stella and her family!

Champion of Champions and Lahti Special We spent the most wonderfull show weekend, Senja, Sinikka and Terhi. On Saturday Peppi competed at Champion of Champions-gala and on Saturday we had a special in Lahti with a breeder judge Renee Sporre-Willes. Here comes a couple of photos, more photos of our fabulous weekend will come soon!
"Peppi" was defeated just by a winner of the gala, Stablemaster's Northern Hope in third turn, which means that she was one of 15-20 best dogs of 75 top winning winners. Really well done for our little princess who really enjoid walking on the catwalk!
At Lahti special Lagottos were judged by Renee Sporre-Willes and there were 42 entered Lagottos, we had 3 dogs with us. BOB with CC was Foogel Sebastiano "Sebastian" and BOS Foogel Perla Brava "Tina" who also got her last CC for a tittle so she is now Finnish Champion!Best bitch 4 was Foogel Crostatina "Peppi". "Sebastian" was also shortlisted in the group final.

Turku International dog show Team Foogel started our show year at Turku international show of 5600 entered dogs. Our little queen "Peppi" Ch. Foogel Crostatina wanted to show everyone that she is such a hot girl also this year and on Saturday at first she won BOB and CACIB under Lagotto specialist Jochen Ebernhardt and finally also Best of group 8 under Karl-Erik Johansson. On Saturday Peppi was shown by Senja, but for Sunday we had to make a change of the handler to Terhi, because Senja was judging junior handler competition on Sunday and was not allow to show dogs at the same day. But Peppi and Terhi continued great work and were placed finally BEST IN SHOW 4!!
Senja was judging also junior handler competition of over 80 competitors. The winner got a place to Finnish junior handler final in Helsinki in Decenber.
