Three International Shows Nitra (Slovakia): Kona won the champion class excellent 1/2 three times and twice the comparison for the Best Female CACIB and BOS :) There were almost 20 hovis entered, Kona was the only female who received the title of Nitra Winner, because as the only one she got each day an Excellent and CAC :) And so within a week Kona completed her Interchampionship :)))

We were visited by Lambo, i.e. Block Buster, we took similar photos of the trinity 9 months ago, what a nice difference ;)
Kona within 2 weeks, winning 3 German shows in a row, finished the VDH German Junior Championship, HZD German Club Championship, and only in Dortmund she fulfilled the RZV Junior Champion conditions.
12.06.2022 will be a memorable date for us forever ;) This is the date of the great hovawarts holiday, because the Jubilee Club Show took place in Fulda, Germany, for which 425 dogs were entered, judged by 10 breed specialist judges from several countries. After Dortmund there was a lot of speculation whether Kona will do well here too ;) Fulda is our icing on the cake ;) Kona was judged by Sigrid Darting-Entenmann (RZV) and shown by our irreplaceable Tea Pavisic, whom she met on the day of the show and what an amazing couple she made with her! Our one-year-old Kona has outdone herself, first she achieved first place in the junior females class in a great style out of 48 entries, and then she won the comparison with the best young male and became BEST JUNIOR AND GERMAN JUNIOR CLUB WINNER!!!!!! In total, she defeated 90 juniors! We would like to thank everyone for such kind words and compliments to our treasure, Kona, apart from great anatomy and movement, also has a wonderful character and perfect temperament, thanks to which even after 7 hours of a hot day at the exhibition, she can run in the ring so that no one is able to catch up with her ;)
Kona is the quintessence of our kennel and we are extremely proud and happy that so many judges appreciated her. And how many people she stole the heart of, it is impossible to count ;)))
Kona made such an impression on Mr. Damer in Dortmund that he wrote about her in the monthly RZV magazine: "Among the nine females, the very first starter immediately caught the eye: a very correct and typey black young bitch from Poland, just under a year old, Enormous Ain't No Saint, who was also able to move excellently and became European Junior Winner. The very feminine winner of the open class, Amy von der Teufelseiche knew how to impress with her beautiful movements, but when selecting the best bitch she had to bow to the Polish competitor. Putting such a young, still fully developing bitch like Enormous Ain't No Saint in front of all her already mature competitors, some of whom have been awarded champion titles or certificates, is not an easy decision for any judge, because everyone is aware of it that in a year, two or three years you will be confronted with this judgment again when the dog - in one direction or the other - is fully grown. But the breed standard in its age-appropriate application is the only yardstick. The fact that the bitch, who had previously won the title of FCI European Junior Winner in Paris, also became best young dog and BoB the following day with fellow judge Brit Wuchert and almost identical competition, again ahead of Heye vom Bagalutenhof as BOS, is one thing rare and therefore particularly welcome confirmation."
We are honored and proud <3
27-28.05.2022 will be a memorable date for us, because it was then when Kona did something that no junior female had achieved before, namely she won Best of Breed twice in Dortmund! Under two breed specialist judges: Stefan Damer and Brit Wuchert, beating adult males and females, including champions, also from Poland, less than a year old Kona became VDH European Junior Winner, FrühjahrsJugend Winner, 2 x Best Junior and 2 x Best of Breed!
For the first time we went to the famous Hovawart Special SHow in Knížecí Rybník u Tábora in the Czech Republic on May 14, 2022 ;) Famous, because it is known for its high stakes and specialist judges. Kona in the female junior class had 16 competitors and what can I say, she beat them all with her beautiful movement, and then also the male in the main ring (one of 15 males in the junior class) and became Best Junior out of over 30 junior dogs ;)) The judges were Milan Plundra (CR) and Marco Mummeshohl (RZV).
Kona's first serious show and also a foreign one - European Dog Show and France Championship in Paris 22-23.04.2022 ;) 10 months old Kona did great, together with her handler Marta she won twice the first place out of 4 females, the titles of European Junior Winner and French Junior Winner, and in comparison with the male also the title of Best Junior!
