Open Trophy Show
It has been long time since I last wrote anything. It has happened a lot but I will not bring up every single event (that is not possible), but I will mention some things... In this post I will mention two things!
As I have said before... Asta is not a very good swimmer. I mean: She survives in water, but do not really know how to swim! Therefore we got her a life jacket! Now she swims more secure and better (not at all as deep and heavy as without life jacket). She has built up a lot (and I really mean A LOT!) of muscles in both front and hint legs. Her thighs are very thick and strong and she moves in a much better way now than she did before swimming. We will definitely continue with this sort of training!
The biggest event that has happened since I wrote is the Swedish Bull terrier Club's yearly Open Trophy Show. This year the club has existed for thirty years! The show was situated in Kolsva this year (about the middle of Sweden) so we (my father, Asta and I) had a long drive before we actually got there. We had a great time with a lot of fun. We met Asta's sister Lilly (the beautiful white dog) and their breeder, that was very nice. Lilly and Asta was shown in the group "Miniature puppy's 6-9 months". Asta was placed as number four (out of four!), but she got very good criticism from the British judger Mrs Gaynor Richardson. Lilly was placed as number three.
This is what was said about Asta:
"Tricolor. Bitch of very good size. Perfect mouth. Head requires more fill. Good body shape. Moves ok."
Asta was a bit grumpy that first day at the show. She thought that it was too much... Too many dogs, too much stress but she was most tired of the heat! It was very hot (and an absolutely beautiful weekend) and dry and tiring for the dogs, but we had fun... Even Asta had fun the second day! That day she was more relaxed and could enjoy the day fully! She even found another miniature puppy to play with! His name is Nelson and is a very beautiful red puppy, younger than Asta but almost bigger than her! They could not play free (there were no fenced places were they could run) but they could play calmly when they were in strings.
This is the handsome Nelson and the very playful Asta!
My little miniature puppy has grown extremely. Suddenly she had more muscles than I thought was possible to build up only during the summer! But I can also say this: Puppies are very cute and adorable but a grown up Bull terrier is the most beautiful and lovely you can get! Asta is only getting more beautiful every day and it is fantastic to have her! I love her more than anything I know. Check this picture... It was taken the 7th of August (2006) and Asta is more beautiful than ever!
This is my lovely bull terrier, my most precious treasure and life companion... She is my everything!
