Curlyträffen 2004 was a success for Ringlets!

The show was a championship show ( with CC) and the judge Merete Stub, Denmark, had 61 curlies in the ring.

Ringlets was represented by a few, but really good, dogs:
Dobra (R. Eldgnista) and Wilmer (R. Eldsken) in the youth class,
Iris (R.Vindil) in the open class,
Myran (R. Blue Wind) and Tarras (R. Constant Wind) in the champion class,
Svea (R. Untamed Hurricane) in the veteran class and last but not least
Steffi (R.Vanquishing Gale) in the progeny class.

The results? Well, brilliant!

Svea got 1st prize HP.

Working Test (FT)

Here our dogs and their handlers really showed their quality:

Young dogs / Beginners class (18 entries)

1st and Best Young Dog Wilmer, Ringlets Eldsken, owner Karin Sköld
3rd Dobra, Ringlets Eldgnista, owner Eva Wiklund
5th Iris, Ringlets Vindil, owner Eva-Lena Asplund and the breeder

Open/winners´class (6 entries,)

1st and Best Winners´ Dog Tarras, Ringlets Constant Wind, owner Eva Wiklund
2:a Willi, Ringlets Coaly Storm, owner Kajsa Markusson
4:a Niki, Ringlets Catchy Twister, owner the breeder
5:a Myrrha, Ringlets Busy Wind, owner Lajla Rydberg

Unfortunately Niki's points were wrong when the judges forgot to count one of the stations (where she scored top points...). This gave Niki a fifth place instead of qualifying for the finals....well, that's life...this was not discovered until after the finals so what to do?

Eva Wiklund was also awarded Best Handler of the class.

More results:

Myran won the Blood Tracking Test, beginners class.

Ringlets, was for the fifth year in a row awarded Breeder of the Year.
