Storm, rain, wind… but a new star was born in the ring!
2026.05.16. – Varaždin (HR)
A day we will keep in our hearts forever… New Club Winner
At the morning CACIB show, the weather did everything to test us — pouring rain, strong winds, mud and cold. 🌪️🌧️
There were moments when I felt it couldn’t get any harder… but THEY stood beside me calmly and proudly, giving me their full trust. And in moments like these, you truly realize that this is so much more than shows or results. It is trust. Connection. A very special bond between human and dog.
And once again, my dogs proved that true quality shines in every circumstance.
Judge: Dr. Zsuzsanna Balogh
Group Judge: Nikola Smolic
Both of my entered dogs achieved fantastic results:
Excellent 1, CAC, CACIB
- CIB Empyrean Bross Trinity
not only won BOB, but also amazed the judges again during the Best in Show program. Even though she was already very tired by the evening, her breathtaking movement earned her
BOG II placement!
CIB Empyrean Alodial Hunter Kali
Standing in the ring — or even just being outside — in pouring rain is definitely not his favorite activity, but he still did his very best to show that he can shine too, earning the BOS title
And the story didn’t end there…
At the afternoon du Rhodesian Ridgeback Club Zagreb specialty show, the weather finally turned in our favor
Judge: Nada Nikolic (Kinyemi kennel – Denmark)
Trinity entered the ring once again… and once again captured every eye.
- Class Winner
- Best Female
- Club Winner BOB
Only 16 months old… yet she moves in the ring with such natural elegance and confidence that sometimes I simply watch her with tears in my eyes.
The little girl I was holding in my arms not so long ago is now shining confidently in the spotlight.
I am endlessly proud of her and deeply grateful for every single moment we can experience together.
