Rovaniemi, Finland -  Congrats to Heero x Mercy son "Tugger" (Vanderbilt's Tug O'War) who earned BOB (gaining his first CAC) and was 3th on the group at this show.  The judge was Mrs Leni Nousiainen.  Tugger is a late bloomer who is now coming into himself very well.  Watch for him in Europe.  Also, Tugger's daughter Nordic Junior Winner'05 Dollardance Daybreak (Tugger x FIN CH Schatzave's Glacier Breeze) did her part in making the weekend quite perfect: at Finnish Samoyed Association's 40th anniversary Specialty Show in Espoo (southern Finland) little Marina won Best Bitch from Junior class (gaining a CAC) and was BOS under breeder/judge Mrs Pam Taylor (Naduska Samoyeds) from Great Britain.  Breed entry was 111. Marina was also awarded with the challenge prizes of the Best CAC-winning dog at the show and Best Moving Samoyed at the show! The CAC Marina won at the Specialty was not her first - two weeks ago she was 2nd best female in Oulu (beaten only by a lovely special) and gained her first CAC.  Hearty congratulations to Riitva, Iiris and all involved in making this great weekend happen!
