We will be attending the German Jahresausstellung this weekend. It is near Erfurt. Show on Saturday, judge is Sarah Helps. International coursing on sunday.
Just found out that there are 87 entries for the show, and 35 !!!!! deerhound entries for the coursing. Wow!! We never had that many before.

Really looking forward to this. We entered Duncan (Hartvally Walk This Way) on both the show and the coursing, without any expectations. Being there, meeting people, having fun, is the most important. Let's hope for some sunshine, and lots of nice company.
We'll let you know how it went when we get back.

On the picture: Duncan in South Germany on holiday some weeks ago.

Hello Joke_Jan,

All the best
Joerg and Yoki

Come and meet us! We are there with 1 deerhound and 1 Irish wolfhound. Just ask some people, lot of them know who we are.
See you there,

Joke

Hello Jan and Joke, Good luck at the show and the lure coursing. We found the lure coursing at the fun day last week really good fun. Watching the real competitive races must be super. Have a great time. Lovely photo. Ailish and John

Good luck at the show and the coursing. Hopefully you'll have some good photos for us all to see afterwards.

Hello Joke_Jan,

Yes, we (Joerg and Yoki + Sylke and 2 Greyhounds) come with a black VW Multivan on Saturday.

We hope of many fun and a very nice day.

All the best
Joerg and Yoki

How interesting and opportune. Can some one make sure that there are plenty of photographs as I am quite keen to see the progress that has been made by the European hounds.

Have a great weekend you all ! I think , there are actaully 97 dhs entered in the show and yes , 35 dhs lure coursing has been unheard of yet - jealous jealous , jealous - we do have perhaps 35 sighthounds alltogether at our lurecourse trials here....

97 entries is even better! I'm particularely thrilled about the coursing entries. Will try to make lots of pictures and maybe films of the coursing.
Thanks everybody for wishing us a good time (and succes, but that is not the most important thing for us)

Will start packing now.

Bye, Joke

Hi Joke!

We are looking forward for tomorrow, too! We just have packed our caravan. Feels like packing for 6 weeks holiday with 20 people and not for three deeries


I am very excited, because it will be Biros first official coursing. and I hope that Biro will behave in the ring, because she isn`t always amused to be shown, sigh...


and it could only be better weather as at the dutch breedshow!! where we were almost frozen by 5°C warm rain.

See you all tomorrow at the camping meadow and a traffic jam free trip

Biro

Good luck everyone at the show and coursing.

Thanks for posting the info Joke.

Have a wonderful time you all - if someone runs into my friend Danuta ( kennel Caoinlan - represented there with 11-12 dhs , in show and coursing ) please do say hi from me !!! Also if you meet Beatrix wit her 2 dh boys Ian and Chadwick ...


Thank you ,

Verena from too far away B.C.

We hope that everyone has a good time at the coursing and the show best of luck.

Hello Joke and Jan,


It was very nice to meet you yesterday.

Congratulaions for the big win from your Duncan (Ch.Hartvally Walk This Way).

Good luck today by the coursing.


All the best
Joerg and Yoki

Hello,

Congratulations for all winners and placed by the show.

I think it was a very nice day for us all.

My Yoki had become from judge Sarah Helps a "estimated excellent" and 5th place
in the puppy class.

We have meet Elizabeth Jordan from Scunthorpe(UK) with Yoki`s sister Sophie (Fritzens Zafran).

We had many fun, Yoki was spring in water sluice (with green old water)
for and after the show.

I have bought for Yoki a new leather collar and lead in high quality from a Dutch producer and for my collection handmade Deerhound figures.

Sylke had won with your "Swedish" Greyhounds the BOB with Pauline( EPIC Freehearted)
and Senior - BOB with Tracy (Inter.Ch. Another Story Modern Miracle).

All the best
Joerg and Yoki

So pleased that you all had a good time and that Yoki did so well. Can you post some photos of your new deerhound figurines as I would love to see them

Hello houndy,

Thanks for your friendly message.

There are 2 Deerhound figures of one plate.

I will make in the next time a photo and post the photo in new thread
in the history category from the forum.

Have a very nice Sunday.

All the best
Joerg and Yoki

Congratulations on Yoki's success. Liz said she enjoyed the show and would take some pictures so she may post them on here.

Back from Tuttleben/Germany. Deerhound show was very succesfull for us: Duncan was nr 1 in champion class males(8 entries)! Unfortunately no luck at the coursing.
BOB Beria of Redbrook bred/owned by Joachim Faenger (brag: our Ferris was the father to this litter!) Beria also was BIS, a great day for her and her owners.

Nice to meet Joerg & Yoki, as well as Liz and many others.
Will post more pictures, results etc but not today, we just got home and are too tired.

This is Jan with Duncan:


And this is Joachim with Beria

Bye from a tired but happy Joke

Hello Yoke,

congratulations!
It really was a great day, although the weather was a little bit too hot for me (I am not used to warm temperatures...)

Do you have the complete results? I have them nearly complete, but don´t have the results from the bitches - championclass.

Hope you had a nice journey back home?


Many greetings,
Veronica
