| On the second day of her busy show weekend Calli needed some running and jumping first as her energy is always boundless. So we ran and played a lot before judging started. This time Calli stand perfectly but in running her nose was sometimes down on the grass because there were many titbits in the showring lost by other dogs. Despite that the Italian judge was delighted about her and gave her full package CAC CACIB BOB again. As Calli was evidently very tired from showing we decided to skip the group finals again and instead of it made a trip to eternal city of Roma where Calli enjoyed very much being caressed by many people and we enjoyed in sightseeing. |
