I have been working one week already after my summer vacation. My holiday`s last weekend was quite busy
with activities. On Saturday Jenny-Mari and I drove to Puolanka group show with Eddie and Aurora. There
we met Marjo, Hilja and Laura with Anna and Julius. This show went nicely for all of us and it  ended our
summer shows. First of all Julius won the males and Eddie was second and got CC. Congratulations to Hilja
for Julius` BOS and thank you both, Hilja and Laura, for your support to us in the group ring. Next were ladies
and first was Anna. Anna got excellent but she wouldn`t move happily in the ring and came 2nd in working
class. Aurora was in champion class all alone, got excellent and ended best bitch. Anna came 3rd best bitch
and got resCC. Congratulations to Marjo, you did very well with your beautifull Anna. Our Aurora was BOB and
she won group 8 and ended BIS2. Nice finishing for the summer shows 2010! :) Thank you Jensku for your great
company during  this weekend, both in show and in agility competition for photographing and congrats for
Eddies success.

On Sunday we were at agility competitions in Oulu. It was Aurora`s second race in agility and she did it well.
In the first start we got 10 fall points (because of my falts) and Aurora was 5th. Next was jumping track and
that went nicely. We did a 0-track and time went -7.63 under the ideal time and we got our first LUVA! Pihla
started in maxi2 and she  went fine in jumping race. She is so precise girl and it was 0-track and time was
-0.09 under the ideal time. It was so nice competition for both of our girls.

Then results from Pyhäntä our Spaniel`s club championship tracking competition . There was our talent coupöe
Liisa and Elli and what a results!! Elli, Baskethill`s Jolly Jumper got 2nd prize in winner class and it was enought
to get the champion title in 2010 in tracking!!:)) Huge congrats to Liisa and Elli for your great work together
again. Perhaps we will meet in tracking competition during this autumn.

On Sunday our trip to show place was only 2 kilometers, such luxury. Lastly the weather of show day was
just perfect.  The sun was shining and mild wind blowing around the show area. In the morning I  helped to
assemble the ring thinks and also set up my tent . We came to show place with Jenni-Mari about 11 am
and settled down. It was so nice to sit and chat with the others in our tent and look at beautiful dogs before
our own turn. Jenni-Mari`s Eddie won his class and was second best male with CC. Iiro was 3rd best male
and perhaps the quite warm weather took the best out of Iiro`s performance. Next were girls with Saimi.
Anna was 3rd with excellent in open class and Elli won her working class. Aurora and Lara took part in
champion class and Aurora won it. Saimi, Baskethill`s Highlanblossom was first in veteran class and was
also BOB-veteran and ended up BIS2 veteran! :)) The best bitch class was a quite big but Aurora was 1st
and Elli was 4th. Our breeders group was first too and a little bit later this group was BIS2 judgede
by Inese Pablaka. The day was memorable, short rote to show place, results were good and the best of all
was the nice weather!:) We met also Pihla`s sister Peppi, Baskethill`s Izzy Kidding. She took part in working
class and was 4th. It was so nice to see Marjo and Peppi. After the ring Aurora served a raspberry cake,
coffee and juice for her champion title. Congratulations again to Janika and Marjaana for BOB and Jenni-Mari
and Kirsi for Eddie`s  2nd CC. It was a really nice day! :D

Our J-puppies have been spending last weekend in all kinds of activity . Elli, Baskethill`s Jolly Jumper got
her last first prize in tracking career from open class and she recived it very nicely. It was a great work from
this couple, Liisa and Elli.

On show ground we got a new champion in Haukipudas group show. Lara, Baskethill`s Jersey Lily, got her
4th CC and she is Finnish champion now. Our J-pups are 26 months and 5 of them have recieved their
champion titles. First one congratulations to Sanna and your beautiful Lara and thanks to all J-pups owner,
without you this wouldn`t be possible at all. The other J-bitch in working class was Anna, Baskethill`s Jet Set
Beauty and she got her 2nd resCC and was 3rd best bitch. Congratulations to Marjo, perhaps in the next
show Anna will get CC, I hope so! There were boys too, Kaapo, Julius and Iiro. The older boy Iiro got excellent
and was 3rd best dog, well done Laura. And lastly I send thanks to everyone who helped to show our group in Haukipudas! :D

While the others were at Haukipudas and Pyhäntä I was in Joensuu with Aurora, and of course we visited
in Kuopio at Tuija`s and Risto`s place overnight. It was so nice to see you all again. How we managed at
these two shows? On Saturday Aurora was 4th best bitch and on Sunday she was old fashion 5th best bitch.
The weather was just like  last summer in Joensuu, raining and quite windy! I helped Tarja with her
group and it was BIS 1 on Saturday. Beautifull Sophie took it all, she was BIS1 on both days and so  she was
also SuperBIS!! Huge congratulations to Tarja and perhaps we remember that in the middle of july! :D

On Sunday our happy ladies Saimi and Saga had their 8th birthday party. Congratulations to all our H-puppies
and enjoy the summer weather.............

What a weekend we had in the agility races! On Saturday I took part in agility competion with Pihla and we
had two starts. It was a quite hot weather but Pihla was a very good but a little slow. Both A and B-races
went overtime and we were 4th in both starts. On Sunday it was a little cooler weather and Pihla surprised
me. But first jumping race C was our Aurora`s first agility competition. As you know she is so quick girl
and so was her the begining of her race. Two first jumps and  then tube and that was Aurora`s favorit thing.
She went to tube about three times and enjoyed with all her heart. I think the audience liked it very much
and we had fun too, both of us!:) Next was Pihla`s Maxi 2 C-and D-competitions. She did unblievebly good
races and got two LUVA and only one is cebareting us from class Maxi 3. I have never dreamed about these
kind of results in our agility career. The times were just a little bit under the ideal time but it didn`t  bother
me! The day was remarkable for me and our girls Pihla and also Aurora, the beginner!




11.5.2010


We have an extremely nice weekend behind us.Two shows on Saturday and agility competition. On Sunday
I took part in an agility competition with our sweet Pihla, Baskethill`s Irish Blossom. It was our first

took 5th place. Second start was D-race and we got 5 fall points and time went 1 second under the ideal time
too, we got 3rd place. We had a really nice time even the weather was awfull with cold  wind blowing and
raining!  Results warmed us and it was a very nice start in the higher classes!:D

On Saturday
we had a two Group Show; in Kruunupyy and Kuusamo. We divided up to two diffrent teams. In
Kruunupyy were Julius and Lara with Sanna, Hilja and Laura. The day was perfect to all of us especiallyto
Julius and we got our 4th J-pups champion. In Kruunupyy Julius, Baskethill`s Jimmy-The One was BOB and
took his last CC and got Fi Ch title. Congratulations to Julius`owner Hilja for your great work with Julius.

to Sanna.

In Kuusamo  our team consisted of  Saimi, Aurora, Elli, Anna and Kaapo with Liisa, Api, Marjo and Hanna
with her sister Maiju. Kaapo, Baskethill`s Jin Jack Flash took it all. He was BOB and got his second CC and his

Baskethill`s Jolly Jumper was 3rd in champion class and in working class with Aurora was Anna 3rd too.

We have a very nice weekend behind us. In the middle of last week we got Lara`s, Baskethill`s Jersey Lily, hip results. Her hips were A-A same as her 6 other siblings. So it`s time to take a look at our Saimi`s progeny.
She has 15 pyppies out of two males, With Touch Holy Moses and Rindi`s Pablo Picasso. 13 puppies have had
their hips x-rayed  and results: 1 x B-B, 12 x A-A and at the moment they all have clear eyes. Now Saimi has
5 show champions and 1 tr Ch and what more will they  get :)....Thank you all our puppy-owners for these
results!

On Saturday Elli, Baskethill`s Jolly Jumper, and Anna, Baskethill`s Jet Set Beauty, took part in group show
at Pyhäselkä and judge was Bo Skalin. And what result for Elli! She came second in best bitch class and got her
last CC. Elli is 3rd champion of our J-puppies. Huge congratulations to Liisa and Api for your great work with
your little pearl. The day wasn`t so perfect for Anna, she got VG2 after Elli.

On Sunday me and Aurora drow with Hanna and her Pharaoh Hounds Tyyne and Skumppan to Korpilahti near
by Jyväskylä. Quite a long way to go but the time went quickly as usual by chatting about the dogs. It was a
very big group show, almost 600 dogs. So there was judge changes because of huge entry. Our Aurora was in
a quite lively mood and it was hard to keep her moving well. It  seemed that the 3-hour agility trainin on
Saturday didn`t have any effect on her. first  our judge chose her as the best bitch and afterwards as the
best of breed. And finally Aurora was 4th in big group 7/8 and she didn`t run at all, just jumped all the time:)
too much activity for this little girl in one weekend. Congratulations to Tarja for Doris` CC and Ricky`s BOS and also congrats to Heli, Ricky`s owner.

Baskethill`s year 2009.......


Another successful and great year behind us. As always we travelled a lot in diffrent shows, fields
and started also our agility career with Pihla. We showed our breeders group 9 times and it was
7 x  BOB, 1 x BIS3 and also BIS1-group in Kiiminki.
 

Our Pablo, Rindi`s Pablo Picasso (page) was 13th in top ess of the year 2009. He got 1 x BOB, BIG4,
2 x BOS and some best dog placements. Now he will try to loose a little  weight, so that he can start
shows again:).  Pablo`s progeny group was showed in Karkku Springerspaniel`s Annual Specialty Show
and it consisted from four very young dogs: two Lo`cust puppies and two of our own youngsters.
Some of Pablo`s offspring got their title:  Fi Ch Adamant`s Take This Dance, C.I.B & Fi & Est Ch
Adamant`s Take It Easy, Fi Ch Adamant`s Take Your Dreams, Fi Ch FanWans Believe My Dad,
EST V Ch,Est&LT&LV JCH, Balt JCh, Balt JW07,EST JW08 Alfalex Golden Grace and Rus Ch
Baskethill`s Jewel To You. Congratulations to their owners and breeders!

Our older ladies Saimi and Klaara were in some shows too. Saimi, Baskethill`s Highlandblossom
got a few best bitch placements and Klaara, Baskethill`s Golden Blossom was one time best bitch 3
and BOB-veteran. Something new will happen in the beginning of year 2010 in February, our Saimi
will become a grandmother!

Our sweet Pihla, Baskethill`s Irish Blossom started her new career in agility. She  started it very
well. First start and first 0-track and now she needs only one 0-track and she will move up to maxi-2
class. These competitions were so exiting and fun for both of us. Without Pihla I would never have
tryed this kind of competition. More results of Pihla`s agility you will find at her own page.

Then our sweet, wild Aurora,  Baskethill`s Jubilee Blossom (page).   Her Show year 2009 was really
something: she was 4th in TOP ESS of the year 2009!!! She passed her field trial test just 14 months
old and she got her first cacib when she just passed 15 months. She took her first step in agility too
and she did  it  with a very high speed:).

Some of our I-puppies had  good results too. Brightest of all was Iiris aka Baskethill`s Ivory and
Ebony
. Our tracking princess achieved Fi Working Tr Ch, Fi Tr Ch  titles. Thank you Ulla for your
great work with Iiris. Iiro aka Baskethill`s Ironside Brave was in dog shows and he got 1 x BOB,
1 x BD2 and 3 x BD3. Great work with Iiro`s results was done by Laura, congratulations for that.
And our agility-princess  Pihla`s results you find at her own page. We got some really sad news too.
One of our I-puppies, Inka, passed away at a too young age in September. Perhaps it was  best for
Inka to cross the rainbowbridge.

The clever youngsters, J-pups (merits), achieved so much during their first active year! One got her
title already Rus Ch Baskethill`s Jewel To You, 6 puppies passed their field trial testes, and they got
20 CC`, 16 resCC`, 7xCacib, 10xBOB and 6xBOS!! 3 of them have A-hips and we expect perhaps
2 more after confirmation and 5 of them have their eyes examined ok. Liisa`s pearl Elli, Baskethill`s
Jolly Jumper,
has started her tracking career with style:  1 x 1st price/47 points, 1 x 2nd/39 points
and 1 x 3rd/28 points.   I`m very glad of that Saimi`s  tracking career continues with her pups.
Thank you Liisa for your enthusiasm for tracking. All and all 6 of 8 Saimi`s J-pups have been passed
the field trial tests. Thank you our J-pups owners for such a great work with your dogs. Without your
great work these results wouldn`t be possible.

On March we visited, Tarja and I,  Crufts at Birmingham. It was so nice to see all those beautiful
dogs there. Here is the link to gallery and some pics from the show. Thank you again Tarja for your
guaranteed good company:)

These were the highlights of the year 2009, we wish to see you all again in this year`s events!
