May 29 * Hi Ellen and Amy! We were in Germany (Neumünster) this weekend to a big international dog show.
Diablo become BOB and got his first cc in Germany (He needs 5 cc to become German Champion)
 Later he won the group!!! The judge (Dr. W. Peper) said to me: “that dog has only one fault…… and that is
that he isn’t my dog”!!! He loved Diablo!!! A big hug from a very proud “mom”  Bitta
Congratulations, Bitta!

 
CH Thornapple Aftershock "Diablo"

More News from Bitta!!!

All the other Aussie owners knew who Diablo’s beautiful half brother was (Quinn) …….. Quinn is really a star in Germany!!! J J
At the group judging, all the judges were sitting at a long table in the ring waiting for their turn to judge a group. Just before
we were going in to the big ring some of the judges were asking me: If this was the Danish Thornapple? ………….. it felt like
 standing next to a movie star
J When we were in the ring the other judges took pictures of Diablo an was cheering for him!!! WOW
I have never tried that before!!
Diablo is looking better and better………….just like good red wine J He will look fantastic when he is
going to the world winner show in Poland in November this year! 

We are going to Finland together with Anne-Lena and Niklas to the Europe winner show next week. It is going to be fun!!!! J J
