the normal madness

what a week! Double show last weekend, outside with rain. Washed and brushed 3 dogs beforehand, one of which stayed at home on Sunday. In the evening (Friday, Saturday and Sunday) we wentfor a mating.

Monday morning at 9 o’clock “Luana” came for scissoring, on the way back from the Oldenburg show. At 11 am to the vet, progesterone test, then to Aachen to do 100 things. Back home at 8 pm and quickly cooked something.

Tuesday bookkeeping in the morning. Then drove to Mönchengladbach/GER to cut “Sidney” into a model. Back home at 5 pm and continued with the countless and time-consuming little things.

Wednesday: King was washed, put in the dryer and then brushed. He was picked up by his new owners between 13.30 and 16. In between, “Lilou” and “Norman” had their beards and feet washed and completely brushed. Before dinner ” Ocean” completely washed, dried and brushed during the night. “Uschi” washed feet and beard. Finally finished around midnight.

Thursday morning I worked on the computer and paperwork again. At 10.30am I drove to Cryolab in Eersel/NL with “Pike” to freeze sperm. 2.30pm back home and continue working on the computer. From 6pm to 7pm I sat with my sweetheart in the sun at our fish pond and drank 2 Aperol. Cooked dinner a bit tipsy. But from 20.30 to 23.30 I brushed the “Uschi”.

puuuuhhh what a week, I am tired and have to relax today and just feed my 6 websites with the news from the shows last weekend. Paul can finally mow the 2200 sqm meadow.

the normal madness of a passionate breeder and exhibitor.

our dogs enjoy the sunny weather and have no stress.
