Good memories - What a year 2008…..

Our dear visitor in year 2008 SANGERFILD CLAN CURATOR "Kurt"

Belarussian Champion
Baltic Champion
Estonian Champion
Latvian Champion
Lithuanian Champion
Poland Champion
Russian Champion
Swedish Champion
Poland Winner Poznan 2008

Kurt is owned by Julia Guseva, Vladivostok, Russia and bred by Alena Krutova, Moscow, Russia.

Kurt was #19 top dog 2008 in Finland!
He was #2 gundog in Finland
#1 Gordon setter in Finland!

After long planning, a week before Stockholm World Winner show in July 2008 Kurt arrived to Finland for honeymoon. From that moment started the unforgettable period in my life...

During the trip in Finland Kurt was living with me and I had the main responsibility on taking care of Kurt, Minna Törölä was responsible of showing Kurt in pre-agreed shows.
Kurt's show season started was 44 days, so about 6 weeks. On that time Kurt participated in ten shows in Finland. The results were not bad at all: 10*BOS, 6* CACIB, 8* Group placement witch of 5* Group winner and a reserve Best in show. Kurt travelled also in other counties in Europe and got the seven new champion titles.

Despite of the amazing success in shows, most of all Kurt is a true sweet heart. He charmed with kind and obedient personality.

In the time he needed to return back home, tears pricked to my eyes.

I want to thank Julia, the owner of Kurt, for this opportunity and the trust. I want to thank also Minna Törölä of the seamless co-operation and amazing drive in Europe tours.

Kurt left behind more than lovely memories. In October 2008 Lola got two handsome boys and four lovely girls. More on our litter's page.
