Welcome to Finland our new team members!!!

We are really proud to tell you that we have imported 3 new lovely puppies from Sweden in our team! Senja and Niko spent a very nice weekend in Sweden and brought home our little Lagotto pups. These kids have been planned already long and we are very happy to have them finally here!

Already long time Senja has been trying to get an Italian boy Bill Delle Farnie in our breeding program. End of last year she decided that we would like to have a puppy from Nikes kennel of Dinah Wänstedt, because Dinah had Bill in her breeding program and she is owner of very interesting male called Leonardo Dei Silvanbull "Yatzy". When Dinah told that she is going to mate her bitch Nikes Idun (Bille Delle Farnie - Shibumis Here Comes The Sun) with Leonardo Dei Silvanbull (Figo - Maya Dei Silvanbull) we booked immediately a male puppy from this litter. Then on the way we decided that we are interested also to have a bitch puppy to Finland. So we said welcome to our new brown team members:
Nikes Mattis and Nikes Undis


Nikes Mattis ------------------------------------------------------Nikes Undis "Vappu"

Then this was not enough for this time. Also little brownroan boy joined our team. We love Bonebreakers Coppertino "Tino" very much and we also think that Toshiko's Esemplare Migliore is a very interesting male we already have from our Anna-line. Then we have also been interested to have more Di Casa Cleo line in our breeding since last yeat Senja visited Luciando Landi and all his Lagottos. And in Scandinavia kennel Imperies has done very nice work in his lines. So little man called Quintinos Gianluca is going to bring these to our breeding! His mother is Gleska Big Bertha (Bonebreakers Coppertino - Risungs Belezzia) and father Imperies Nimo Norberto ( Rapina Delle Tre T - Scheffelfältets Donna Dolcevita)

Quintinos Gianluca on the way to his new homecountry

Thank you Dinah and Liza of these lovely puppies!

Gianluca and Mattis are available in co-ownership homes here in Finland. Don't hesitate to call us and ask more. Little "Vappu" is going to live with Foogel Tintarella "Viivi" and her family.

 

Super result in Agility for Tara and CC wins for Sohvi and Rico

"Tara" Foogel Caprera did super great in agility in Nokia. "Tara" and Tuula got a 0 result and they even won their class! Which means that "Tara" has now the very fist 0 with class win for agility champion tittle. We are so proud of this super couple!
And one weekend earlier "Tara" won district championship of Satakunta area in Maxi class in all breeds! Well done!

Also anothet new Lagotto started compete officially in agility, Foogel Spumante "Uma" was placed 3 rd in her class and they got some faultpoints, but speed and time was extremely good anyway, so this was a good start! Way to go Uma and Anne!

At Porvoo all breed show Lagottos were judged by Italian Orietta Zilli. Once more changing of judge, but fortunately on this time we got an Italian one. "Rico" Foogel Bastiano started his great show career with Anna. This was 4th show for "Rico" and he got his 4th CC too! Finally he was placed 2nd Best Dog and also BOB-junior. In group final "Rico" was also shortlisted for BIS junior from huge number of juniors. You are doing such a great work "Rico" and Anna.
In bitches Senja was showing "Sohvi" Foogel Sofia Sublime who was shown 2nd time in her life. The judge liked her very much and finally Sohvi was placed 2 nd Best Bitch and she won her first CC too!


Foogel Bastiano "Rico" ----------------------------------Foogel Sofia Sublime "Sohvi"

The best way to study the correc structure is movement. And here you really can see that Foogels are able to move! Foogel-breeders class won BOB-breeders class once again. And here you can see Scirocco, Bastiano, Vivido and Taleggio. This is again a breeders class we have never shown before, all of these dogs have different sires and different dams! :) This is my own opinion, but I think we have reach our first goal in our breeding program, the correct breedtype! It was first Mia Ejerstad (Steadlyn Collies) in Italy who taught me this and then Juha Kares (Chic Choix) in Finland gave also great opinion, the very first thing in great breeding program is to find the correct breedtype and after that one can start to concenctare in other details! :)

Nice show result, puppy news and summer holiday

This weekend started with a puppy news on Saturday. Foogel Dolcezza "Doris" whelped lovely litter of 4 boys and 2 girls. Father of this litter is Ch. Ciro.

 

On Sunday were shown at Helsinki Summer show "Rico" and "Bella". Foogel Bastiano "Rico" won Best Male again and CC and finally BOS. "Bella" Foogel Paola Bella got very good 1.


BOS Foogel Bastiano

 

 

Shows, tracking and obedience - 3 new CC winners


"Beauty and brain work"

 

So then it was a time for Kuopio 3x international shows. At this time we decided to take with us youngsters "Matias" Foogel Basileo who had just turned 9 months on Thursday and "Gloria" Lapinlumon Gloria. We had very high expectations of judges during this weekend and the reason why did we decided to drive to Kuopio was that Hans Lehtinen was suppose to judge Lagottos on Saturday and ESS were suppose to be judged by Australian Stephanie Richard of famous Wongan Springers, but naturally both these judges were changed and we were soooo disappointed, but decided to drive to Kuopio anyway as Toini and Lagotto boys Ruben and Tino are living there.


So on Saturday Lagottos were judged by Jochen Ebernhardt from Germany. At first he gave excellent for "Matias" Foogel Basileo, but didn't like his coat as in his opinion it was not enough wooly....didn't really understand as he has a gorgeous coat for his age!? Then "Ruben" Foogel Pittoresco won intermediate class and also Foogel Giottino "Tino" won champion class. Finally "Tino" won Best male and CACIB. Well done "Tino" at this very first show for him this year! And "Ruben" was Second Best Male and got reserve-CACIB and CC. In bitches "Gloria" Lapinlumon Gloria was shown beautifully. Her only "problem" was that I didn't let her kiss the judge! Finally "Gloria" got excellent and won her class and ended 2nd Best Bitch with CC. Really shame she was few days too young to take a CACIB as otherwise she would have get it too as the winner didn't have full pedigree. Then finally "Tino" was BOS.


BOS Foogel Giottino BOB Budoar Veronica


Best Male Foogel Giottino 2nd Best Male Foogel Pittoresco
---------- CC winner Gloria


Between the shows we spent such a lovely evening at Toini's place, very nice food and some wine & spumante. How relaxing and fun we had!

Then on Sunday Lagottos were judged by Henric Frykstrand. "Matias" shown again first and won also his class, then was shown "Ruben" who also won his class. These were our only boys on Sunday. Finally "Matias" ended 2nd Best Dog with CC, and "Ruben" was 3rd Best Dog with reserve-CC and also reserve-CACIB which will be confirmed as CACIB in FCI. How proud we are of "Matias" as he had just turned 9 months 3 days before and again he would have also got CACIB but he was too young for that. In bitches "Gloria" was today secong in her class with excellent.

But after Lagotto judgement in Kuopio we started to get nice news all over! At firts, also Foogel Bastiano "Rico" was shown today at Vantaa special and how did he started his adult show career, winning BOB and CC! Well done "Rico" and family!


Foogel Bastiano "Rico"

And also ESS Foogel Going For Gold "Ilona" was competing. He competed the very first time in bloodtracking and got immediately firs price in open class! Congratulations Ilona and family!
