"Niki" has been shown once as a puppy, and she went BEST PUPPY OF BREED.
As a 19 months youngster she entered her second show and got a 1st prize HP.
She got a 1st prize at Field Trial, young dogs class, at the tender age of 16 months.
2001
Niki, 2 years, performed an excellent run at the District Championships of Värmland in July. She got top points at all three stations, and at the end of the day Niki finally was the winner.
Among all the dogs she had beaten there were e.g. the three elite dogs of the team who represented Värmland at the Swedish Championships for Teams.
In September Niki made her very first run in the open class at Field Trial. She really showed her qualities: 1st prize and Best Dog of the Day!
During this year, Niki has entered two Field Trials in the open class. Results: one 2nd prize, and one
1st prize and Best Dog at Trial!
Niki needed just five runs in FT to reach the Winners´ level.
2003
Niki has been used for real hunting on different games: silently waiting for the doves and geese to come in, or heeling at the big walk-ups among lots of retrievers and spaniels.
In July Niki is one of the three elite dogs in the team of Värmland at the Swedish Championships för Teams.
The team makes a great performance which results in a very good fifth place after the first day´s competitions (the first four teams go on to the semi finals the next day).
In the beginning of October Niki enters the Winners´ class for the very first time. She made a really good performance and everyone at the trial were just about to consider it done: a 1st prize....when Niki at the very last moment decided to take her own way....and the 1st prize was suddently ...a 3rd.
The judge said that "you missed your 1st prize with about three meters....sorry! "
