Today we went on our second show. The show was in Ljubljana. When we arrived there were already a lot of dogs. In total around 1400 inscriptions were made!!! We found our way trough and joined our "Boxer friends" and waited our turn. The first to go was the Dogues de Bordeaux. Then they started the Boxers. In our category was 2 others dogs , Akiba"s brothers!! I was kind of confident because I knew the other participants. But my confidence tricked me as I came into the ring. I was really nervous and my nervosity gained me and I lost complete control of my dog. Akiba was really agitated and really not concentrated. We trained a lot for this moment , but once into the ring it is a complete different story!! I showed my dog to the judge, wich was not so bad. Akiba was very nice showing his teeth , but then he jumped on the judge twice and started beeing completely out of control! His movements were irregular but he posed well. We received 3rd place, wich was the last. I was kind of upset due to our intense training, but once I saw the descriptions that the judge made, I was very happy. Akiba received the grade "very promising 3" wich is excellent and pushes us to go further! We are actually training for our next show, wich will probably be in April 2010, in Maribor. The weather is actually not on our side, due to the melting of the snow, but We are looking forward to better days soon.
