Er zijn een paar dingen die ik graag wil zien in een showhond: hij moet plezier hebben in de ring, zelf zijn balans leren zoeken en bij het presenteren goed op zijn eigen vier benen kunnen staan en lopen. Lappi doet het al heel goed :-)
There are a few things I like to see in a showdog: he has to have fun in the ring, learn to find his balance on his own and stand on his own four feet during the presentation, both moving and standing. Lappi is doing really well :-)
Okay, and now we are placed, we all don't want show anymore. We want cookies!!
Dit is het: het plezier dat je hond uitstraalt geeft hem dat extra sprankeltje!
There you go: his happy look will give your dog that extra sparkle!
