Every year, our favourite exhibitions are the two exhibitions organised by the Golden Retriever Kör in the garden of the Károlyi Castle in Fehérvárcsurgó. On one hand, because they are always judged by respected judges who know the breed and whose opinions we are really value, and on the other hand, it is like a retriever festival full of friends and beautiful dogs. This year the show was judged by Gloria Blaauwendraat (NL) with great attention to details. Translated with DeepL.com (free version)
And this speciality show was even more special for us, because Irma and Cillian's almost 4-month-old puppies were also presented for the first time in very good numbers. We also had people who had never been to a show before. So we had a very large Headtheway team in a good atmosphere.
Many thanks for the family portraits to ZsannaPhotography!
The little ones showed their socks off with happy wagging tails and courage on their first ever show. We were very proud of them. It would have been a great day in itself, but we also achieved some really nice results.
