Since it was sunny and dry again, the birthday video of Sterling could be made a day late. It can be found in the Photo Gallery down below the photo album.

Today is a very special day: The oldest girl of the pack celebrates her 16^th birthday: Best wishes to Sterling (Champ. Daretobebares STERLING SILVER). May I be able to accompany this sweet, lovable and friendly girl for a long time to come.

Unfortunately it rained non-stop and so I couldn't make a video of the sweet lady in her new suit in the garden. Hence just a photo of Sterling in her favorite bed.

Mamacita (Multi-Champ. Jamming's MAMACITA), Hippie (Multi-Champ. von Shinbashi HIGHPROVOCATION) and I came back from Serbia, where yesterday Mamacita took part in the international show in Subotica.She was very successful again: CAC and CACIB and now she fulfills all the conditions for the title Beauty Champion Serbia. She has won her fourth championship in just two months.

It was a very well organized show on a great site. Luckily the forecast rain didn't come. And we met again our friends Helga from Hungary and Zoran with his wife Dolly from Italy and spent a nice time together. The accommodation booked was excellent and is recommended: Gray Apartment  directly in Subotica. The hostess is a lovely, helpful and dog-friendly woman. Thank you Zeljka!.

There was also a surprise in the mailbox after the return: Mamacita's Beauty Championships of Bosnia and Herzegovina and Republic of Srpska were awarded on April 4^th and the confirmations and certificates have arrived.

In the Photo Gallery of Mamacita there are some new photos under grown up.

The Caipirinha's N litter is celebrating its 11^th birthday today. All the best to my beloved Maverick (Multi-Champ. Caipirinha's NEED 4SPEED), to Needy (Caipirinha's NEEDLESS 2SAY) and Toulouse (Caipirinha's NOTHING 2LOSE) in Germany and to Tanner (Champ. Caipirinha's NUTBUSH CITY LIMIT) in Canada. May all four be granted many more healthy years.

Voodoo (Champ. Family Song's VOODOO) celebrates his birthday on the other side of the Rainbow Bridge today. This little, spirited male will never be forgotten - my first Chinese Crested. And again a candle burns here in the house.

May 18, 2022:

It's been four years since Porsche (Caipirinha's PINK HOT PORSCHE) died just 3 days after a surgery of a pulmonary embolism at the tender age of just four. He's still missed here, this funny and lovable male. He is also commemorated with the burning candle.

We - Mamacita (Champ. Jamming's MAMACITA), Hippie (Multi-Champ. von Shinbashi HIGHPROVOCATION) and I - came home from Serbia this evening. Mamacita took part in the international show in Ada yesterday. Unfortunately, this time things didn't go quite as hoped, which I only noticed when I was in the accommodation when I looked at the judge's report: The judge had first judged the hairless and powderpuff separately. But as it turned out, he let the class run together and so Mamacita "only" got the Res. CAC, as a bonus the Res. CACIB. Because I didn't notice this at the exhibition, it was no longer possible to ask or complain. That's a pity, because when I asked the club about the report, I was told that the CAC will be awarded separately. Well, that was probably a bit of a letdown. One can only hope that next time it will go as one is told.

May 15, 2022:

Happy 8^th birthday to Caipirinha's P litter, namely Prada and Pagani in Germany and Porsche on the other side of the Rainbow Bridge. A candle was lit for him.

Tonight we - Mamacita (Champ. Jamming's MAMACITA), Hippie (Multi-Champ. von Shinbashi HIGHPROVOCATION) and I came back from our short vacation in Croatia. During this holiday Mamacita attended two of the Zadar International Shows, which she finished with very good results. On April 29^th she got CAC and Res. CACIB and on May 2^nd CAC, CACIB and BOS.

Once again we met nice people and spent a great week at Zaton Holiday Resort - except for the first two nights, which were disturbed by mice scurrying about in the false ceiling. During the day there was nice warm, sunny weather and finally - after three years - I could enjoy again grilled squid with chard potatoes and other very good fish dishes. As always, the beautiful, relaxing time passed far too quickly and the week was over soon. Let's see if we can do this trip again next year.

There are some new photos in Mamacita's Photo Gallery grown up.

A sad day for me, it still hurts a lot to think of Keanu (Multi-Champ. Whisperingln' THE DEVILS ADVOCATE) who crossed the Rainbow Bridge four years ago. The lit candle shall show him that my thoughts are with him.

May 1, 2022:

During the short vacation in Croatia the 5^th birthday of one of my most successful girls is celebrated: Hippie (Multi-Champ. von Shinbashi HIGHPROVOCATION).

All the best to the pretty princess who is spoiled all day long and enjoyed a long walk in the forest of Zaton Holiday Resort together with Mamacita (Champ. Jamming's MAMACITA).

The second show weekend of this year is behind Mamacita (Jamming's MAMACITA). Together with Hippie (Multi-Champ. von Shinbashi HIGH PROVOCATION) waren wir in Satu Mare/RO. we were in Satu Mare/RO. And again, the youngest of the house was able to achieve great success: she got CAC and BOB at the national show and CAC, CACIB and BOB at the international show. Thereby she fulfilled the conditions for the Beauty Champion Romania and got hold of her third championship.

As for the weather, it was the worst show I've ever been to. It rained non-stop on Saturday, which is absolutely no fun at an outdoor show with a long-haired dog. Besides, it was very windy and freezing cold. We even had frost at night. The show grounds and the organization were excellent, lots of nice and helpful people, and we made new friends who we hope to meet again at another show soon. The lodging was rustic and old, run by very warm and friendly hosts. For our needs of having a room to sleep it was ok.
