Mistress said that she has registred us to dogdance competition at Oulu. I knew that Oulu is far in north, because I have been there at last summer. We had alreadya good choreograpy, which we have presented at Janallaka. We have fine tuned it a little.
At morning mistress and master went to shop for buying some more food for our trip. Then we continued to caravan trailer stripper bay. Master bought a gas oven to our caravan home. Mistress said, that she will sometimes bake buns in oven. I love buns :-)
Then we drove on Haukipudas, Rantasarka camping area. Master skied over 10 kilometers. Snow was so soft and deep, that skiing is quite hard. He had luck that he hadn't broke his leg with those long planks :-) |
At competition morning mistress is quite stressed. At competition place she is almost relaxed. We were there well in advance. We checked the ring, but I wanted more to play with my friend "Nasu". Mistress said that we had to check the smells from the ring. And there were much smells! Mistress was little worried of smells. She didn't know that I will not sniff smells durin dance. |
Before competiton there were a cavalcade, where all competitors were presented to the audience. There were really much of audience. |
Finally I and mistress got our turn. Our number was 10. So there were only 2 pairs after us. We went a little too early to the ring. Thus we had to wait long time in our start position.
|
Finally our music started and we begun our dance. I watched sometimes what audience like of our dance. |

Mater took our show to videotape. |
After a couple of minutes final position command was given. I tried this trick also earlier, because I knew that I will get sausages after the presentation. Mistress said that I had never danced so well. I was proud of these words, but more I loved the sausage bits. |

It was fine to took part to this competition. It was a
big suprise to me and also to organizer that there were so much
audience. I loved to present my dance to big audience. I ws also nice to
saw other danceing dogs and their owners. BIIIIGGGG THANKS for
organizers! Competition is well arranged. Now this hobby got big publicity. Before competition there were some comments of this happening on the Radio Nova and some minutes also at TV channel 4. After the happening there were some minutes at the end of "News 22" at MTV3 channel. |
After
the race I played at our caravan trailer with my new rubber bone. I
loved its sound, but mistress didn't liked it.
I wonder why it didn't any more has its sound! Probably mistress bite it too much ;-) |
In our caravanhome, I got much of scratches from master and mistress. |
Sometimes servant is quite slow in our caravan home. I love snacks between food times. We stayed over night at Vaasa. Finally we were at home at Sunday afternoon. |
