Obi's interests

Shows

Obi's showcareer begun at Finnish Briard Special in Helsinki 17.6.2000. Judge was Annick Loew from Germany and he was BOB puppy. That gave us enthusiasm for shows and we went around quite a lot with various success. Obi got 3 CAC's, was once BOB and three times BOS. We went a couple of times to unofficial match shows too and were once BIS 4.

Obedience

We even competed in obedience.

Agility

Our interest with speed was agility. We attended course summer 2001 and unofficial competitions on 2.11.2003 (20 penalty points and 9th place), 11.6.2004 (47.84 penalty points and 9th place) and 30.7.2004 (55 penalty points and 3rd place).

Other

Our most interesting interest was herding. We took a course on 29. -30.5.2004 in Kausala and got some more practise on 29.8.2004.

Most pleasant interest was playing (or maybe chasing bitches). Ball were Obi's favourite toys. Pulling and tugging were also nice. Playing with other dogs was extra nice.

We also learned to find mushrooms and some tracking.
