Friday 7.7.2006 Willy: "Today was last work day for master and mistress. Summer holiday begin! JIPPII !! I assumed that we will start to a trip, because they have carried things to our caravan trailer." Bitti: "We drove a long trip. Finally we arrived to Janakkala. We went to sleep almost at once after arrival. I had a lot of energy, because I have slept in car." |

8. - 9.7. Janakkala AGIROTU Organizers: Janakkalan koirakerho - JANKK & Finnish Agility Open -FAO Saturday 8.7.
|
| Willy: "Very hot again, they called it "helle" (hot weather). Our competition started with judge Pertti Siimes's track. I was not in competition mood. |
|
| However I rushed, when Anitta gave me permission. I cannot resist agility course. I didn't said that I will listen commands :-) Now I haven't listened. After the first jump I should turn to the second and then to the see-saw (red line in the picture), but I rushed to the wall (yellow line in the picture). |
|
| Then she put me back to the order. At slalom I didn't like to take all poles. Sometimes I tried to find my friend from the audience. |
From the tyre the track turned back (red line). I almost hurt my leg on obstacles stand. |
After all, I jump to the finish with so great jump. Result: DSQ" |
Bitti: "My Liia-sister has arrived there. Also my mom Fria and brother Urho. Only Namu-sister is missing. Almost whole family is together. I have heard that this happening is called "AgiRotu" (Agility Breed competition). Mistress and master has invited Liia to visit me. I and Liia had much things to "talk" after long time. |
Willy met also his daughter Liia. |
Most of the time Willy look after me and Liia.
|
"Hey, have you heard... We "talked" many minutes." |
In picture from left: Willy, Liia, Urho and Bitti |
| Brother Urho joined also to our company. |
We had a proper tag-play. |
In picture: lowest Liia, Urho stand over her, Bitti sniffed Liiaa. |
| Sometimes I and Urho annoyed too much Liia, but she said then us that we should end it. |
Every now and then I checked, if Willy has founded some good smells. |
 
|
|
| Willy: "Here is my second track. I accelerated faster than Anitta. Fortunaltelly I found correct track. |
On the second straight were a see-saw. There mistress reached me. |
Then we ran and jumped fine. Unfortunatelly she guided me by the third last jump. |
We reached the finish line, but got DSQ." |
Wet-robe was faschion! It made feeling a little bit more comfortable. I didn't like it. It made my fur wet :-) Bitti is a little stupid. He was in shower. (In picture"seriff" kooikerhondje - (Kelmi?)) |

Mistress took small banners and master big banner (flag) to the competition are. I founded that there was different race. People had funny costumes. Some other had also same The Netherland's "Oranje" fan club's t-shirt than my mistress. She told that we will have a relay race. All team members have the same costume. There were two judges from other countries. They have noticed our costumes, because they were football fans. Our team is called "Oranje Koohon" First there were a track, which was published at Agility Sports Bulletin a week before race. We have practiced it twice before.
I ran by one jump and made some mistakes at slalom. Our position was 44th place and result 15(15/-14,26).

Then we had relay race. We have no
pictures of it, because my master helped our team at start line. Next
dog started immediatly after previous was over the finish line. The
clock was running all the time. Our team was 47th. After this race was costume parade. I thought that it was too hot for that. But is Bitti can do this, I couldn't interrupt." Bitti: "Finally competitions were over. I got tired of being alon in my cage beside competition area. I liked to run on the track. Now I got permission to be our team's mascot. Next year I will compete in race myself! After first enthusiasm of parade I feel it boring. Why I had to only walk. There were much interesting dog friends and people in audience. When we passed by parade judges first time, Englishman judge whisled us and show red card. Second time he asked my master (our flag bearer) come to front of him. He gave the red card to Petteri." |

After the parade I met again my
sister and brother. They took family portraits of us. Only Namu was
missing from the pictures.
|

We fixed our camp there and rest a little. Bitti tried to play with me,
but I was tired."
Monday 10.7.2006 In evening there were miraculous thunder. When I heard it first time, I jumped on the sofa and climbed on mistress lap. Willy did also same thing. I barked to his thunder, because I was scared. They told that this sound was "thunder storm".

12. - 13.7.2006 Willy: "We spent our time by playing, resting and eating. We practised some times dogdance, because some competitions will be soon. A new trick is to pull a stocing cap away from Anitta's head. 
One bad thing was ticks. There were a lot of these. After every walking tour they checked it there were ticks in our fur. Our mistress hate every 6- or 8-legs insects." Bitti: "It was shame, that only Willy got sausages from those tricks. I will also train and got sausages!" |
