It's been a while since we have updated our dogblog but soooo much has happened during that time! Taigakoira dogs have been doing super well in the show rings - Taavi (Ch Taigakoira Buoremus Davvir PT) took out Best in Specialty Show in 2017 at the Finnish Lapphund Club of Victoria's Championship Show under judge Saara Sampakoski (Finland), and Zeke (Ch Taigakoira Tahtien Valo) has been taking multi Runner Up in Groups, Class in Groups and Class in Shows, was BOB at the Adelaide Royal in 2017 and most recently reserve dog at the NSW Finnish Lapphund Club Specialty Show. Well done to Taavi's owners and handlers, Meagan Thomas and Simone Dillion, and to Zeke's co-owner and handler, Huey Miin Lim.
In the meantime, we have been campaigning our lovely new imported girl Miia (NUch SeUch DkUch FiUch NordUch NW-16 EuJW-15 Lapinlunas Onnentyttö (imp Nor), and we are pleased to announce that in just over 6 months, Miia has added *another* title to that long name of hers, qualifying for her Australian Championship. On the way, Miia has impressed in the ring, most recently taking out Runner Up in Group 5 (Working Dog Group) and Open in Group at our Easter shows. However, we are only just beginning to have some fun in the ring and we have a lot more showing ahead of us! We thank Miia's breeders, Rebekah & Anders Ylén (Sweden) for breeding such a gorgeous girl, and Jonna Almenäs, for looking after her (and earning all those extra titles!) in Norway.
Taigakoira lapphunds have a lot planned for the next 12 months, including (hopefully) litter plans for new pups - we would love to hear from anyone looking for Taigakoira lappie, particularly for show prospect (just contact us via our contact form).
