Ufffff we are back from the biggest summer Dog Show in LT, which is hold in Druskininkai. Was really really hot weekend when weather heated up to 36’C in the shade..
However, I’m glad it didn’t stop our dogs to run and win. Dogs been slower, but still in shape.

Deutsch Drahthaar association has organised Spring Field Trials for VII FCI group. Trials has been judged by international judges: T. Cirkina, G. Jefremov, J. Cirkin and national judges: S. Aleksa and M. Vasiliauskas.
17 dogs has been entered (German Wire-haired Pointers, German Short-haired Pointers and Hungarian Vizsla) from Lithuania and Latvia.
Spring is the magic time when not only beetles wake up but people as well. Suddenly all the streets and parks get crowded of mommies with kids, jogging people, dogs, singing birds and all kind of flying bugs.
There we are as well.. Every weekend we try to go to the fields for training. Today we had training with honorable trainer, president of Drahthaar association LT Jevgenij Cirkin and vice-president Sigitas Aleksa (http://drahthaar.lt/).

From the first Spring day we begun new Field Trial season training.
Field Trials were developed to test the working ability of Gundogs in competitive conditions. Trials resemble, as closely as possible, a day’s shooting in the field and dogs are expected to work with all manner of game, from rabbits and hares, to partridges and pheasants.
Every Spring we have Field Trials for young dogs. So we begun to train. First two days working with hare – training the lower sense of smell and retrieve.
Some people take their dogs to long road trips, but other are afraid of many difficulties and refuse taking their best friends together.
We are just back from long holiday trip (over 5000 km), where our four feet friends have traveled with us. So I decided to share some tips for traveling with dog and some pictures from our last trip to Alps.
