The most glamorous of the International shows of the year is always in December in Helsinki. This year was quite special, as although the number of dogs entered was small, we had participants from all the Nordic countries and also from Germany! The quality was really good, so it was quite exciting ringside. To make this year special the next day was the Nordic Winner 2005 held at the same place. Unfortunatly I couldn't attend, I'm sure it would have been fun too.

The toller stand was selling lots of good toller stuff and helping people with questions about the breed. Wellu (Small Fetcher Easy Going Erno) was there too, but he wasn't for sale :-).
