Kylie finally fetching fox and fitch

The Large Munsterlander training is very special, for they always have special game to train with. Now they had a tiny fox (but the smell is the same) and a fitch, terribly smelling :-(( Untill now I could never pursuade Kylie to fetch them for me, but at this training it finally worked out. Now I hope she will still remember this at the working tests so we don't lose points on the fitches and foxes anymore. But for today I'm very happy!

Rembrandt and Joy at the LM training

They are 5 1/2 months old now. Last Saturday there was a Large Munsterlander hunting training for all ages and levels and Joy and Rembrandt were joining the training. They worked very well and Jet and Yvonne had a great day. Funny to see is that Joy, being the largest puppy in the litter, isn't that big at all and Rembrandt has already beaten Kylie in hight!

Pictures of Joy

A few nice pictures of Ginny in the snow.

Schöne Grüssen aus der Schweiz

Patricia and Gunn are living in Switserland for a few months. Gunn realy loves it overthere. She's becomming very experienced already in gametracking and has developped a new hobby: digging holes in the snow to lie down in it. (I wonder who taught her that???)

The pictures are beautifull Patricia, thank you for sending them!

It runs in the family...

Rembrandt and Finn are in a puppy-huntingdog class together, eversince they were only 9 weeks old. They are making good progress and their owners like the fact the two brothers see eachother on a weekly basis. Finally somebody made nice pictures of them in class! Don't they look good!

New training season has begun..

Although this looks like Syberia, these pictures were made in Holland this morning. Training season has begun again, so I've started training Kylie for more hunting tests. Isn't it beautifull in the snow!!

Zeb at the Belgian beachwalk

In Belgium, there was also a beachwalk organised on the 17th of January and that's where Zeb joined in and above picture was made.

It's already 2 weeks ago the Large Munsterlander Beachwalk was organised. In total there were 18 Large Munsterlander present, so no birds on that beach anymore during the walk :-)) The Stommeerpolder family was well presented by Jazz, Kylie, Gimly, Django jr., Kalle and Sparkey. Sparkey didn't do the whole walk, for that was a bit too far for a youngster, but he had a lot of fun.

Good thing about beachwalks are the dunes. The Dutch coast is protected by beautifull dunes. Good thing about these dunes is the fact that there are heaps of rabbits living in it. And ofcourse that makes the dogs very happy. Kylie and Jazz behave pretty well in the dunes. They know now they can watch, they can smell, but they are not supposed to hunt the rabbits. The walks don't go very fast, for every 5 meters they point out another rabbit, but it's so beautifull overthere, especially with the snow, that I don't mind :-))

New pictures of Roy (Thibeau)

We received new pictures of Thibeau from Belgium. Jean-Yves says Thibeau behaves very well, learns quick and is very spoilt. Well, that sounds good :-))
