I have been planning this litter for far too long; it’s time to actually do it! Kaïa is expected to be in heat around May 2025, which means puppies for the summer.

Kaïa

Kaïa is an extraordinary dog who goes above and beyond to please me.

She’s easy to train and down for anything, from Obedience training to intense Agility sessions: she will give 100% of her energy. If I’m not careful, she can work until exhaustion.

And then be at 10% the rest of the time. Kaïa is an “On/Off” dog: she can be calm and composed at home and in public places. Cuddles are mandatory. She can be jealous and doesn’t enjoy sharing her humans with other dogs.

Almost everything I have accomplished with Kaïa is documented here, from our first meeting to the last competition.

Maïky

Why take any chance when you can jump an extra 20cm?

I have known Maïky since the beginning. In 2017, we drove 1200km on a Friday night to pick him up as a puppy, as his owner couldn’t travel at that time.

He is the proud son of Mind The Dog Lycan (Obedience world champion in 2017 and 2018). He’s a lovely dog who is always ready to work. Sometimes a bit stubborn, Maïky always does his best, except when the tunnel is right in front of the first jump—then Maïky prefers the tunnel! He’s a powerful dog who easily navigates agility courses.

He loves humans: you can cuddle for hours. He doesn’t care about other dogs and loves bitches. I have never seen him provoke another dog or start a fight.

Mendig is a beautiful place. They have a ceiling camera that films everyone, and you can download the films on their website. It offers a nice view of your run.

Judge was Stefanie Semkat.

We won the Agility with a little fault. My fault of course since I’m too close to the frame before the last jump.

Disqualified in the Jumping.

Judge was Seppo Savikko.

We finished second place in the jumping. Disqualified on the agility, I failed to recall and redirect her on a big discrimination and she took the jump instead of the seesaw.

Judge was Cédric Bargoin.

I really enjoyed those courses, even if we clearly could do better on the agility, the jumping was a lot better, it’s my favorite of the weekend!

Judge was Corinne Bormann.

She stole the start on the catwalk! I wasn’t ready for that and missed the next reversed jump. The jumping was also full of reversed jumps, and I can feel that she understands them better and fails less on them.
And yes, I should be more confident in the weave pole.

It’s the Lux Winter Cup again! It’s the third time we have participated.

Juge was Roman Lukac.
We were disqualified on both runs, but Kaïa did well. Except for the “out” she keeps missing 🙁

Juge was Åsa Emanuelsson.

Very technical and challenging courses! Not everything goes as planned. We were disqualified twice again.

On the agility, kaïa skipped some doors at the end. I didn’t see it, the juge didn’t see it, only the public.
