"WILLY'S DIARY"

18.12.2005

REPRESENTING KOOIKERHONDJES 
"DOGDANCE MISSIONARY"

 

At Helsinki Congress center arranged 17.-18.12.2005 great dog shows. During these shows there were also some dog hobbies on stage. One of these was dogdance. Dogdance was presented also during short breaks between other demonstrations. On Sunday 18.12. was Nordic Winner 2005 show. My mistress has promised that we will show our skills.  

I have missed my mistress just some days before show. Fortunatelly I got my master with me to search her. We took our caravan trailer and drove at friday night 16.12.2005 to Turku. My master tried to told me that mistress was on journey with her work friends and we are going to fetch mistress from Turku harbour. We stopped at Parking are in Turku during some night hours.

At saturday morning 17.12. master's phore rang. Mistress called and said that she was at harbour. My joy is high, mistress has been found!

We drove to Turku Biltema parking area. I was astonished because we went to sleep again. Mistress hadn't has time to sleep onboard.

I got my master awake after some hours and later mistress woke up. We ate a little. Then they leave me alone in caravan home and went to the shop. I watched over our trailer steadily holding my nose in window. I stared out until they come back.

Then we started to driven to Helsinki.

It was saturday evening when we arrived to Helsinki Congress center. There were many other caravan trailers & cars and many many cars. Master found suitable place for our trailer and car. We ate and then we all went to evening walk. Oh there were so many smells in big city!

 

On sunday morning 18.12. I made my morning walking with my master. My mistress has woken when we went back to caravan home.  She packed up my bag. MUMS I saw sausage bits! 

Then we walked to show place. We found correct halla and announced there. 

We  presented 3 "filling shows" and 1 demonstratiob, which was"Samba de Janeiro". We have presented it earlier in summer at Padasjoki. 

 

In "filling shows" we have to impovized, because we didn't know the music in advance. But it was not a problem. I followed mistress signs ... or not... She have more jobs to did, because she had to select correct movements.

Between shows I was in my soft cage. They think that I reclined there, but I followed peoples that pass by. So I was quite tired in my last show.

Stage was veeeery big. We had plenty of room to dance. Our show was projected on big screen. Spot lights made me "a star"! During the dance I tried to get more sausages! I didn't like to dance without "salary", because I am a star. My aim is in Finnish Champioship in spring 2006 at Oulu.

I think that I was only kooikerhondje in Finland who had danced in competition until 2006. I recommend this hobby to every dog.
