During the weekend of the 24th and 25th of March we were a guest with CC2000 at Mini camping ' De Blökke ' in the Heurne, a small town in the Achterhoek. We Boften again tremendously with the weather; A lovely sun with perfect temperatures. It was for the first time that Maarten and Monique were part of the CC2000 clan and especially for this they had purchased a caravan. Unfortunately, they used to be on a regular basis with a caravan so it didn't provide much fun while building the awning.

In the course of the Friday, Simon and Maarten have laid out a nice long trail that could easily be cut into pieces so that each hound could run its own distance.

Quite unexpectedly and not planned, Sonja showed up on Friday-afternoon. This was a perfect moment for Vision to run with muzzle and Rendek, something she hadn't done yet.

For the coursing there were a z0'n 45 hounds logged in. Also the young Afghaantjes of Pascal and Martine Talia were again from the party and showed their passion for the course. Vision ran together with Chidish. She had to get used to the muzzle in the first circulation, but in the afternoon she showed that she had no problems with it and walked with surrender behind the hare. Chidish showed himself an experienced courser and cut off decent pieces!

There were several beautiful courses to be admired and everyone had a lot to his liking.

For lunch Andrea Kisser had made a delicious pan soup, thanks Andrea again!!! and also the roll ball were greatly appreciated.

Also in the afternoon there were many courses so that it was only about celebrating we were ready. It was a great success again and everyone enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere, the beautiful courses and the blissful weather.

I had agreed with Iris and Marijn to judge the puppies and to take the picture on Sunday. Of course Sonja also wanted to see the puppies. They were 9 weeks old and there were clear differences to observe. Our favorite, the dog with the blue collar, still heads and shoulders above the others. 

In second place came the bitch with the green collar. A very powerful bitch, looks very much like Cute Coney.

In third place the bitch came with the collar with hearts. A lot more elegant than the green bitch.

Sonja acted as a star and the next was the male with the yellow collar. Also a cracks.

Then there's another female with a red/yellow collar.

And last a female with a lot of white.

All in all, we are very satisfied with this litter and they also all have a good home. Hopefully they will grow further and we'll see them once again.

In any case, I wish the new owners a lot of fun and happiness with their new house.
