Great news from Germany: Needy (Caipirinha's NEEDLESS 2SAY) today - on the Austrian National Day - gave birth to her first puppies - 4 males and 1 female.
Huge congratulations to her owner and our friend Anne (kennel von Shinbashi). All agog with curiosity and interest we will follow the growing up of the small ones, and maybe there will be a grandchild out of our Ula (Multi-Champ. Family Song's ULA) and our Keanu (Multi-Champ WL THE DEVILS ADVOCATE) for us. All the very best for Needy and her sweet puppies!

We had show success again with one of our offspring boys: On September 28, Maverick (Multi-Champ. Caipirinha's NEED 4SPEED) attended the CACIB show in Arad/Romania, where he went out of the ring with Exc. 1, CAC, CACIB, BOB and being Transilvania Winner 2013 ...... and he finished his third championship. Our boy is now also Beauty Champion of Romania. Thanks a lot to judge Katalin Kiss for these great results and for the photo she sent us.
At the club show and the second CACIB show Maverick left the ring each time with Exc. 2 Res. CAC.
It was once again a great weekend with our friends Melinda, Alina and Marius as well as new friends, with who we had a great time and lots of fun. Alina had made a reservation for all of us in a beautiful hotel where dogs were welcome, were we had enough grass area for walking the dogs, and where we were served gorgeous specialties of the country each evening. We are very much looking forward to our next coming together.

We are back home from a very successful show weekend in Hungary. On July 27/28 two of our dogs were shown at the double CACIB shows in Debrecen, this time owner handled resp. breeder/owner handled. Maverick (Champ. Caipirinha's NEED 4SPEED) gained Exc. 1, CAC, CACIB and BOB on the first day and on the second day he got Exc. 1, CAC, CACIB and BOS. We have another Champion now, the boy finished Hungary. It is his second Championship after having been shown only 10 times. Needless to say that we are mighty about the success of our own bred boy.
Memy (Multi-Champ. INCREDIBLE ME von Shinbashi) got Exc. 1, CAC and Res. CACIB on both days and finished her Hungarian Championship already on the first day. This is her 5th title at the age of 2 years and 4 months.
Thanks to the honorable judges Lokodi Zsolt and Christian Stefanescu for the great results.
And outside of the show rings it was one of the nicest show weekends this year, spent with dear Melinda and some great new friends. Nice chats, great dinner and a funny time. Hopefully we can repeat this soon.

After 16 great days in the USA I am back again. The joy about my arrival after more than two week of all the 4-pawed family members was big.
On May 13, I had arrived in New Orleans at my friend Tiffany, who had invited me to spend my holiday with her in her home. My surprise arrival gift was the musical Wicked already on May 14 - awesome and unforgettable. I was also spoiled with nail studio and hair dresser on May 14 and 15.
On May 16, Tiffany and I were off from New Orleans via Houston to the National of the American Chinese Crested Club to Oklahoma City. Finally I could get to know long time internet friends personally, especially Terry (We Say It In Stitches and the first owner of our Keanu) and her husband David, Theresa (the breeder of Secret) and her husband Harry, Linda (Reil's Texas Cresteds), Echo, Nancy (Puttin' On The Dog Designs & We Say It In Stitches), Erin (Presenting Chinese Cresteds), Michele (Gracieux Chinese Crested), Tammy (she was one of Keanu's professional handlers), Bev (Dokkum Cresteds) and her husband Gary and some more.
It was also nice for me to get to know the dogs of all these friends, respectively some of them. Especially Theresa's dogs Little T. (Secret's sire), Mimi and Ring-A-Ding thrilled me, and of course the sweet little poodle Tator with her heart like a lion, but the others are of course also great. Little T. is so similar to Keanu and Ring-A-Ding could be a litter mate to Maverick. The girl which Echo had with her, Insoo, is a real great personality, Erin's Juicy (also bred by Theresa) is a pretty girl and from TerryRemy the Chihuahua is dear to my heart. But I could also meet friends which I had already got to know in 2009 and 2010: Nancy, Deb, Martha, Mercedes, Sandra, ...... We spent four great days together and had an awesome time besides chatting about our dogs. And of course some things have been bought which we cannot get here. I'm especially grateful for the cover which Nancy made for our show crate:
As always after USA visits I needed a second suitcase for going home.
I was very proud to attend the win of the Best In Show girl: she is a daughter of Steel (Champ. Silver Bluff STEEL KING LEGACY, SOM) who lives with us. Already a day prior to our arrival this girl was Winner of the Top 20. Even though this female was born while Steel did not yet live with us, the wins of Trinity have touched me very much, and it was great to get to know her owners and her professional handler. From ACCC I also got the diploma for the title Sire Of Merit (SOM) of Steel, which he gained 2010 when he was already in Austria. Thanks to Susan Miller who organized that.
The few days with great friends were over too fast and on May 20, Tiffany and I flew back to New Orleans (with some trouble and major delay because of the terrible tornado in the afternoon). I could spend some great summer days there and got to know some of Tiffany's family members (I do know her mother Jackie already since 2010). Furthermore, I attended my first boat tour, visited the zoo, had sight seeing tour through New Orleans and neighborhood as well as visited some of the world famous cemeteries in New Orleans. The food during all the time was just wonderful, and for the first time in my life I had crawfish and crabs.
A dream also came true ...... a new tattoo ...... of one having been bred here ...... Maverick (Champ. Caipirinha's NEED 4SPEED). Kenny Holland from Downtown Tattoos in New Orleans is an awesome artist and I am forever grateful for his 4 hours "work". The tattoo is really perfect and a mirror picture of the photo which I had with me as a template.
During being absent there were two birthdays at home: Voodoo (Champ. Family Song's VOODOO) was eight years on May 21 and Maverick turned two years on May 26 - like his sibbling Tanner in Canada and Needy & Toulouse in Germany. Thank internet the birthday greetings were sent even over that distance in time.
As always holiday is over way too fast and on 28 May, New Orleans local time 7:50 a.m. my trip back home started via Detroit to New York, und from there local time 5:40 p.m. direction Vienna, where I arrived May 29 in the morning before 8 a.m.
I thank Tiffany and her partner Larry for the indescribable great hospitality and for everything they did for and with me. And thanks to Theresa, Harry, Terry, David, Echo, Nancy and Erin for the great time I could spend with them. We really have to rerun this.
