I've been planning to get a puppy from the UK for a couple of years now, and finally it happened! I'm happy to introduce our newest family member, Scalpsie Gizi, who arrived to us in May and who is out of a wonderful breeding from Lisa Gast.

Due to the coronavirus and the travel restrictions it was not easy to get her shipped over to Hungary, but in the end it was all worth it. Gizi is a stunning, sharp puppy who has a big will to please and loves humans enormously. She seems promising on sheep too, but we will see later what the future will bring to her. :)

Some more recent photos of Gizi, as she's almost 7 months old now:

We had a nice day trialling in a beautiful landscape in a small village, Bánk. The course and the sheep were challenging, but the dogs got some nice results:

• Meggy won the 1st place in class 3 out of 5 dogs (with 79,5/110 and 95/110 points)
  
• Novel also won the 1st place in class 2 out of 5 dogs (with 78/100 and 88/100 points)
  

Judge: Michael W. Hynes from Ireland

We also attended to the seminar with him, I cannot be thankful enough for the tips he said. Thank you, Annamária for organizing the whole event, and special thanks to Michael for judging! :)

Today we received the following test results from Laboklin. We're very happy about the good news! :)

Nordevind Novel:

• BCG (glaucoma and goniodysgenesis) DNA normal
  

Camellia From Camilland's:

• CEA DNA normal
• TNS DNA normal
• CL DNA normal
• MDR1 +/+ (normal)
• IGS DNA normal
• SN DNA normal
• BCG DNA carrier
  

It's official now: based on last and this year's results, Meggy is qualified for the Continental Sheepdog Championship 2018! Hungary will be representated for the first time in its history! I'm so looking forward to it! :)

What an amazing weekend we had! Meggy won the 1st place at the Polish CSC qualification trial with pretty nice runs! She had three runs with the following points:

• first run: 99/110 points
• second run: 103/110 points
• third run: 102,5/110 points

I cannot be more proud of her! She worked very hard and precisely :)

Judge: Paddy Fanning from Ireland - thank you for your kind words! And a huge thanks for the organizers for this nice trial!

Nordevind Novel (ISDS 349505) had his official health tests done and here are the officially evaluated results: he is HD/A, ED 0/0 and OCD free! :)

Furthermore, he passed the FCI Herding Working Test (HWT) with a perfect score of 98/100 points! Judge: Tímea Sólyom (HU)

We had a long trial weekend and really hot weather at the HSDS Spring trial in Mátranovák, but the dogs managed to have some good runs.

Meggy had a really nice run and a 1st place on the second day (93/110 points), and a hectic run
on the first day with 53/110 points and time. Overall she won the 2nd place in class 3!

Novel made his second attempt in class 1 and won the 1st place with two really nice runs!
