Closing the year 2010

(suomenkielinen versio kts alempana)

Once again a year has gone by, times flies when you are having fun. 
 A memorable year, that includes some of our biggest successes, but also sorrow.

Year  2010 started well with receiving excellent results from 2009 – Ch Carnoustie´s Object of Desire at Corydon 
finished his stay in Finland as # 2 Top Male, # 1 Top Sable. Carnoustie´s were # 3 Top Breeder
Ch Corydon Will Carnegie # 6 Stud Dog. Since 1999 he has been placed 10 times amongst the Top stud dogs in Finland
– quite a record.

Carnoustie´s Double-O-Seven continued last year´s success in the showrings, and now has 10 CCs, 2 CACIBs, 
3 r-CACIBs, 3 x BOS, BOB from Finland and Estonia, and finished his year in Finland as # 5 Top Male, # 1 Top Tricolour
– not bad for a dog who became 2 years old in October.

His sister JV-09, V-09 Solitaire was also quite succesful despite a change of coat, and now has 4 x CC, 1 x CACIB, BOB, BOS 
from Finland and Estonia, and 8 rCCs. 
Their sisters Elektra and Scaramanga both took rCCs with BB-placings.

Object of Desire competed in his home country Latvia a couple of times, with 2 x CC, 2 x CACIB, BOS, BOB 
and needs only more CC to close his  LV CH-title, and one more CACIB to close his CIB-title. 
He was also shown in Estonia at the Winnershow, where he took BM-2, rCACIB. 
His litter sister La Dolce Vita took rCACIBs from both Latvia and Estonia, and also a CACIB from Latvia.

Will Beam Me Up was shown only a couple of times in Finland, 
as he already at his first show took his crowning CC and became FI RU CH.

CH Solange in Russia continued her tremendous success and completed her RU BLR CH, RU J CH, RU J CLUB CH, RU CL CH
titles with several BOB, BIG-placings. 
She is mated, and if all goes as planned, her first litter will be born in the beginning of 2011.

Dear old FI RU EE CH Silver Flower competed in Lithuania, and despite some last minute-changes of judges
and other exciting things ;), managed to become CC, CACIB, BOB, LT CH. 
She will be mated January 2011 to Leaftribe Old Black Joe, and after that be retired from both shows and breeding. 
She would have needed only one more CACIB to close her CIB title.

Beam of Light had a marvellous success from intermediate classes in Finland and took during the year 3  CCs, BOS, BOB.
His ”partner in crime” Love Is My Desire has started his career promising by taking a junCC in Estonia, 
and class placings with excellents in big classes at the winner shows in December.

Love is My Desire´s litter brother, Addicted to Desire made even more success, in two ways – he saved his owner´s life 
when an aggressive bear attacked them, and got the Hero Dog Award from Finnish Kennel Club for that. 
Also at his first show ever, at 9 months age, he was CC, BOB, and shortlisted in Group 1 at Jyväskylä international dog show !

Xtremely Blue Carnoustie from Fantazija also made us very happy in Lithuania, where he took his crowning CC, CACIB, BOS 
for Gunnel Holm and became FI LT CH. He needs only one more CACIB to close his CIB-title.

Also Joy, Rejejs Joie De Vivre for Carnoustie, made us very happy, when she returned back to the showring after her maternal duties, 
and immediately took CACIB, BOS, FINW-10 (96 roughs).  
Thank you Ilona for this marvellous blue merle lady, who is a dream to own and show!

Love Supreme took a BM-2 with rCC, and we are quite convinced that she will also some day close her CH-title.
In Sweden Silvermors Gåva took a BM-2 placing, and her litter sister Morgongåva took a BM-4 for breed specialist 
Eva Eriksson (Crony) at Seinäjoki int.show.  Morgongåva will have  a litter at Carnoustie´s spring 2011.

Xtremely Attired and Sent From Heaven were x-rayed, both HD-free (Finland and Denmark).
Breeder´s class was presented 8 times, with 6 x BOB, 2 x 2,POH.  Thanks everyone for participating in the class.
Lady Blue Cat, and Blue Goddess were temperament tested, both approved.

We had two litters during the year, the first one from Joie De Vivre and Double-O-Seven and the four youngsters look promising. 
The second litter was to Ch La Dolce Vita, again with Double-O-Seven, from this litter we we kept one sable bitch, one tri bitch –
they both look very promising.

Lady Blue Cat was mated once again, but missed again. We found her a good pet home.

The stud dogs offspring continued to have success: Object of Desire´s young children in different countries are doing well at shows:
RU J CH Caprice Catherine Eseniy, junCC, junBOB, BOB-winner Drivergold Elise Blossom, junCC winner Carnoustie´s Love is My Desire, 
CC, BOB winner Addicted to Desire,  BM-placed Rantapaikan Afrodite, in England Crufts qualification, rCC Corydon Copperita etc. 
Three offspring x-rayed, all with A-hips.

Will Beam Me Up´s offspring also have been succesful, his oldest children in Russia continues to gain CCs at championship and speciality shows and Seivita Antey also shown in  Estonia with BM-2.  Beam of Light in Finland took 3 CC´s, BOS, BOB from intermediate class.

Xtremely Blue Carnoustie´s offspring´s hip health is amazing, 11 x-rayed, and all with A-hips! His young son in Denmark, Xtremely Xclusive CC,BOS at his first show ever in junior  class, and now waits for new coat. His young children in Latvia and Lithuania are gaining CCs and CACIBs, BOB- and BIG-placings. He is inheriting good blue merle colours, good bodies lovely temperaments and much better heads than his own. In 2011, a granddaughter to him, Rejejs Niagara Song, will join our kennel.

Carnoustie´s were  also given the highest award a breeder can get from the Finnish Kennel Club, the Vuolasvirta plaque. 
The demands for the award are very high, and we are very proud that our long work with the breed have been noticed by this.

But as said, also some sorrows – three new stars shine on heaven …

Last year when Multi Ch Viva La Diva was mated and had dead puppies, the surgery was not a complete success. 
She got a  severe infection, and was treated with antibiotics for several months. 
Unfortunately, we could never completely remove the infection, and at her next season, she got a pyometra. 
We decided to not put her through another surgery so close to the previous one, so we had to let her go.

Viva was special – not the easiest one to keep in the gang, but her love to humans, and her joy when she travelled with us around Europe for shows, was something special.  Also, the one litter she produced, was of absolutely top quality, with GB exp. CH Carnoustie´s Object of Desire at Corydon, CIB CH Creme De La Creme and our own dear CH La Dolce Vita. 
Creme De La Creme has approved herding test in Slovenia, and Object of Desire and La Dolce Vita have approved temperament tests in Finland.  Through Viva´s fabulous children, and grandchildren she breeds on, and we can see so much of her in them. 
Thank you Viva for these years, and for your love – we miss you so much.

Only a month after this tragedy, we lost Viva La Diva´s beautiful grandson  Supreme Desire, at 8 months age. 
He was outstanding, and would without doubt have been one of our best breedings ever, but he was too good to be true. 
In 3 weeks a young, perfectly healthy hooligan changed into a sick, bleeding, dying cancer patient – Acute Lymfoma,
and nothing was to be done. We had to let him go – and my heart almost broke into peaces. 
He was a copy of his father, the outstanding Object of Desire,  and had a perfect temperament, tail carriage and movement. 
Sleep tight little Primo,  and run free in doggy heaven together with  grandmum Viva, and greatgrandfather Winston – 
see you some day in doggy heaven..

There is  a saying ”not two, without the third”, and the third death was even more devastating. Our dear friend in England,  
Barbara Blake, got a new, fatal stroke, and never gained conciousness again, and died at home, surrounded by her family. 
The dog world had lost a Grand OldLady, and we had lost a true friend and soul mate. 
Our thoughts go to John, Miranda and Julian in this difficult time. 
Though Barbara is gone –  her work for the breed lives on through her dogs, and in our memories she stays alive.

And I am convinced, that in doggy heaven, together with Primo, Viva, Winston and all the Corydons that have gone before her –
there is a lovely, healthy, happy Barbara sitting in the middle of the gang, taking care of her beloved Corydons.
And hopefully still looking down at us sometimes – atleast she managed to give Miranda the so much hoped-for Christmas snow..

Returning back to the Vuolasvirta plaque – this award would not have been possible to get, without enthusiastic friends  and breeders, 
who have trusted our breeding, wanted our dogs, and shown and competed them succesfully. 
Without this co-operation, we would be nothing.  
I would like to say to you all – THANK YOU  for your friendship – you all mean so much to us!

We hope to be back in the showring spring 2011 with some exciting new material. 
Hopefully we will before that have a litter or two (blm/tri), and our stud dogs are, as usual, available for healthy quality bitches.

Wishing everyone a Happy New Year!

Vuosi 2010 - ikimuistoinen vuosi

Vuosi on mennyt taas – aika rientää kun on hauskaa. Taas ikimuistoinen vuosi, joka sisältää upeita tuloksia, mutta myös surua.

Vuosi 2010 alkoi hyvin, saadessamme vuoden 2009 tulokset – Mva Carnoustie´s Object of Desire at Corydon oli # 2 Top Uros, # 1 Top Soopeli Suomessa, Carnoustie´s # 3 Top Kasvattaja, ja vielä kerran, rakas, edesmennyt  CIB Corydon Will Carnegie # 6 Top Jalostusuros.
”Winston” on vuodesta 1999 ollut sijoitettuna 10 kertaa Top Uros-listojen kärkipaikoilla, aikamoinen saavutus.
Mutta olihan hän myöskin aikamoinen jalostusuros.

Carnoustie´s Double-O-Seven jatkoi näyttelyuransa menestyksekkäästi, ottaen 10 SERT, 2 CACIB, 3 VSP, ROP Suomesta ja Virosta, 
ollen vuonna 2010  # 5 Top Uros, # 1 Top Tricolour Suomessa!  Hieno tulos nuorelle urokselle, joka vasta syksyllä siirtyi avo-luokkaan.

Double-O-Sevenin sisko JV-09, V-09 Solitaire pärjäsi myös ihan mukavasti, vaikka hän päätti kahdesti siirtyä bikini-kausiin, 
mutta saldona nykyään kuitenkin 4 SERT, CACIB, ROP ja VSP sekä Suomesta että Virosta, sekä pitkä liuta vara-SERTejä.
Siskot Elektra ja Scaramanga ovat molemmat ottaneet useampi PN-sijoitus ja vara-SERTin.

Object of Desire kilpaili kotimaassaan Latviassa pari kertaa, ottaen 2 SERT, 2 CACIB, VSP ja ROP ja tarvitsee näin ollen vain yhden sertin tullakseen LV MVA:ksi, ja yksi Cacibi lisää tullakseen CIB:ksi.  Hänet esitettiin myös Viron voittajanäyttelyssä, tuloksena PU2, v-CACIB.
Hänen sisko La Dolce Vita sai Viron voittajanäyttelystä PN-2, v-CACIBin, ja Latviasta CACIBin ja v-CACIBIn.

Will Beam Me Up esitettiin ainoastaan kahdesti Suomessa, koska hän otti heti vuoden ensimmäisessä näyttelyssä  suomen SERT
ja valioitui FI RU MVA:ksi.

Solange Pietarissa jatkoi menestystään ja sai lisää titteleitä,  RU BLR MVA, RU J MVA, RU CLUB MVA, RU J CLUB MVA. 
Solange on nyt astutettu, ja jos kaikki käy hyvin ekat jälkeläiset syntyy vuonna 2011.

Rakas vanha FI EE RU MVA Silver Flower kisaili Liettuassa, ja tuomarimuutoksista ja muista hulluuksista huolimatta ;) 
hän sai SERT, CACIB, ROP, LT MVA.  Silva astutetaan tammikuussa Leaftribe Old Black Joella ja jää sen jälkeen
eläkkeelle sekä näyttelyistä että jalostuksesta. Hän olisi tarvinnut yhden cacibin lisää tullakseen CIB:ksi.

Myös Beam of Light pärjäsi loistavasti nuorten luokissa  Suomessa, ottaen 3 SERT, VSP, ROP.

Hänen ”partner in crime” Love Is My Desire aloitti juniori-uransa lupaavasti, ottaen Virossa jun-SERTin , 
ja Suomen voittajanäyttelyissä eri ja luokkasijoitukset isoissa luokissa.

Love Is My Desiren pentueveli Addicted to Desire pisti vielä paremmaksi, kahdella eri tavalla. 
Hän pelasti omistajansa kun aggressiivinen karhu hyökkäsi hänen kimppuun, ja palkittiin sen takia joulukuussa 2010 sankarikoirana Messukeskuksen voittajanäyttelyssä.  
Hän ehti myös osallistua Jyväskylän kv näyttelyyn, ja oli SERT, ROP ja kuuden parhaan joukossa  1-ryhmässä.

Xtremely Blue Carnoustie teki meidät onnelliseksi Liettuassa kun hän  otti SERT, CACIB, VSP, häviten ainoastaan Silvalle,
tullen FI LT MVA:ksi. Hän tarvitsee yhden cacibin lisää tullakseen CIB:ksi.

Joy, Rejejs Joie de Vivre for Carnoustie otti täysosuman Voittajanäyttelyssä, kun hän palasi kehiin äitiysloman jälkeen. 
Helsinki voittajanäyttelyssä lauantaina harjoittelimme vähän (eri 2) ja kun hän sunnuntaina muisti mitä piti tehdä kehässä,
tuli palkinto heti – CACIB, VSP, V-10. Kiitokset Ilonalle tästä mahtavasta koirasta!

Love Supreme oli PN-2 ja otti v-SERTin, ja olemme varmoja siitä että hänestäkin joku päivä tulee mva.  
Ruotsissa Silvermors Gåva oli PN-2 , ja Suomessa sisko Morgongåva oli PN-4 Seinäjoen kv näyttelyssä, 
tuomarina erikoistuomari Eva Eriksson (Crony). 
Morgongåvalle suunnitellaan pentue keväällä 2011, pennut syntyy Carnousties kennelissä.

Xtremely Attired ja Sent from Heaven lonkkakuvattiin (Suomessa ja Tanskassa), molemmat terveet.
Lady Blue Cat ja Blue Goddess osallistuivat luonnetestiin hyväksytysti.
Lady Blue Cat astutettiin vielä kerran, ja jäi taas tyhjäksi. Löysimme hänelle hyvän lemmikkikodin.

Carnoustie´s kasvattajaluokka esitettiin 8 kertaa, tuloksena 6 x ROP, 2 x  2,KP. 
Kiitokset kaikille jotka osallistuivat luokkaan ja auttoi esittämisessä.

Vuoden aikana syntyi kaksi pentuetta,  eka pentue Joie  de Vivren pennut, isänä Double-O-Seven. 
Nämä nuorukaiset ovat lupaavan näköisiä. 
Toinen pentue oli  La Dolce Vitan pentue, isänä tässäkin Double-O-Seven. 
Tästä pentueesta jätimme kaksi huligaania kotiin,  soop La Vida Loca ja  tri La Traviata. 
Molemmat nartut ovat  todella lupaavan oloisia.

Jalostusurosten jälkeläisten menestys jatkui: Object of Desiren nuoret  lapset eri maissa ovat alkaneet uransa hyvin:
RU J MVA Caprice Catherine Eseniy, junSERT, junROP, ROP Drivergold Elise Blossom,  
junSERT, junVSP Carnoustie´s Love is My Desire,  SERT, ROP  Carnoustie´s Addicted to Desire, 
PN-sij kv nly Rantapaikan Afrodite,  Englannissa v-SERT, ROP, RYP-3 open show, Crufts kvalifioitu Corydon Copperita jne. 
Kolme jälkeläistä lonkkakuvattu, kaikki A-lonkkaisia.

Will Beam Me Upin jälkeläiset ovat myös pärjänneet hienosti, vanhimmat lapset Venäjällä ovat jatkaneet SERTien  ottaminen,
ja ovat myös Virossa olleet PU-sijoilla. Beam of Light Suomessa on ottanut nuorten luokasta 3 SERT, ROP, VSP.

Xtremely Blue Carnoustien jälkeläisten terveystilastot ovat hienot, 11 lonkkakuvattuja, kaikki A-lonkkaisia. 
Myös näyttelypuolella on mennyt hyvin, Tanskassa Xtremely Xlusive SERT, VSP,  ja Liettuassa ja Latviassa usea jälkeläinen 
palkittu SERTillä ja CACIBilla.  Maxi jättää hyvät merlevärit, kauniit rungot, ihanat luonteet ja paremmat päät kuin mitä hänellä 
itsellä on.  Vuonna 2011, hänen lapsenlapsi Rejejs Niagara Song liittyy meidän laumaan.

Carnoustie´s kennelille myönnettiin vuonna 2010 Vuolasvirtapalkinnon – korkein huomionosoitus mitä kasvattaja voi Suomessa
saada Suomen Kennelliitolta. Olemme ylpeitä tästä – tie tähän tulokseen on ollut pitkä, palkitseva, kiinnostava,
ja välillä hermoja raastavaa.

Mutta, kuten sanottua alussa, vuoteen on myös mahtunut surullisia asioita  - ja taivaalla sykkii kolme uutta tähtiä..

Viime vuonna kun Multi Ch Viva La Diva astutettiin, pennut kuoli, ja leikkauksessa kaikki ei mennyt hyvin, 
ja hänelle kehittyi verenmyrkytys. Hän söi antibioottia usea kuukausi, mutta emme ilmeisesti kuitenkaan saaneet
tulehduksen kokonaan pois. Seuraavan juoksun yhteydessä hänelle kehittyi märkäkohtu. 
Päätimme, että emme enää piinaa Vivaa uudella leikkauksella, koska toipuminen edellisestä leikkauksesta oli ollut pitkä ja vaikea. 
Oli pakko tehdä vaikea päätös ja antaa hänen nukkua ikiuneen.

Viva oli erikoinen koira, laumassa ei se helpoin, mutta hänen rakkaus ihmisiin oli suurenmoinen , ja hänen ilo kun sai olla ihmisten kanssa  matkustamassa oli sydäntä koskevaa. 
Viva sai ainoastaan yksi pentue, mutta mikä pentue se oli -  KANS MVA Creme de La Creme,  GB exp. MVA Object of Desire, 
MVA La Dolce Vita.  Creme De La Cremella on hyväksytty paimennuskoiratesti Sloveniassa, Object of Desirella ja 
La Dolce Vitalla hyväksyttyjä luonnetestejä.  Viva elää eteenpäin hänen lapsissaan, lapsenlapsissaan – 
ja silloin tällöin näemme niissä ”Vivan ilmettä” ja iloitsemme siitä. Kiitos rakas Viva, kaipaamme sinua ikuisesti.

Kuukausi tämän surullisen tapahtuman jälkeen,  oli vuorossa seuraava katastrofi. Vivan lapsenlapsi, superkaunis Supreme Desire sairastui aggressiiviseen leukemiaan, ja kolmessa viikossa vilkas, terve, huligaani-nuorukainen muuttuu kuolevaksi syöpäpotilaaksi.  Tutkimustulokset olivat masentavia, akuutti lymfooma, ja päästimme Primo kivuistaan pois.  Edelleen itken kun ajattelen häntä – hän oli kuin kopio isästään, liikkuen kauniisti hyvällä hännänkannolla, ja luonne oli mitä mahtavin.  Hän oli liian hyvä ollakseen totta.  Nuku rauhassa rakas Primo,  koirien taivaassa olet ilman kipuja, ja voit iloisesti juosta isoäiti Vivan, ja isoisän isän Winstonin kanssa.  Nähdään joskus taas..

”Ei kahta ihan kolmatta” ja näin siinä kävi – ja kolmas kuolema oli vielä pahempi. Englannista tuli suruviesti, rakas ystävämme Barbaraa oli saanut kohtalokkaan aivoinfarktin ja kuollut.   Koiramaailma jää kaipaamaan Grand Old Ladya, ja me kaipaamme aidon, rakkaan ystävän.  Ajattelemme Johnia, Mirandaa ja Juliania  ja suremme heidän kanssaan.  Mutta Barbaran elämä ei ole mennyt hukkaan, hänen työ jatkuu – hänen kauniiden koirien kautta, ja hänen ystävien kautta – niin kauan kuin muistamme hänet – hän ei ole poissa.

Ja olen vakuuttunut siitä, että koiren taivaassa, Primon, Vivan, Winstonin, Corydon-koirien keskellä istuu nuori, kaunis, terve tyttö, jonka nimi on Barbara.  Siellä hän huolehtii niistä koirista, jotka ovat menneet ennen häntä.  Toivon mukaan hän aina silloin tällöin myös kurkistaa tänne alas, katsoen mitä teemme. Ainakin hän sai hankittua Mirandalla se niin kauan toivottu valkoinen joulu.

Palatakseni takaisin Vuolasvirtapalkintoon.  Tämän palkinnon saaminen edellyttää ahkeria pennunostajia, hyviä ystäviä, kasvattajia  ja uroksenomistajia jotka ovat luottaneet meihin. Pennunostajat ovat tehneet koiriensa kanssa töitä, keräen näyttely- ja muita tuloksia. 
Ilman heitä, emme olisi mitään.  Haluaisin sanoa teille kaikille – kiitokset ystävyydestänne – te olette kaikki niin tärkeitä meille!

Palaamme kehiin keväällä 2011,  nuorukaisten kanssa. Toivon mukaan voimme ennen sitä nauttia muutamasta pentueesta (tri/blm). 
Meidän jalostusurokset ovat, kuten aina, käytettävissä terveille nartuille.

Toivotamme kaikille Hyvää Uutta Vuotta!

Sussi & Thomas

05.10.2010 Catsy on saanut uuden kodin. Kiitämme kaikkia yhteydenotosta ja kiinnostuksesta.
Ensi vuoden pentusuunnitelmiin voi tutustua pentusivulla.

02.10.2010
Long time since my last update.
Our puli Weetoneon She´s the One has travelled to UK, and will spend a year with her breeders Avril and Stan,
and hopefully rear a beautiful litter, and get some nice show results - we wish you luck with the little lady!

It seems like Catsy has missed once again, I can see no signs of any puppies. She has now been mated twice,
to two different males without success, and will by this be removed from our breeding program.

Last weekend we got the very sad information from Miranda in England, that Barbara Blake has passed away.
Barbara was our mentor, my "grandma", my friend, the one I always turned to when needing advice in breeding -
she will be sadly missed. The world is a sadder place without her love to this breed, her happy laugh and tremendous
humour.  My thoughts are with John, Miranda and Julian at this sad time - we are all thinking of you!
We would like to dedicate our Vuolasvirta-award to Barbara, for all the help and all the quality dogs we have got from Corydon.

Carnoustie´s Collies will receive the Vuolasvirta Award year 2010
check the link for more information

Vihdoinkin on aika ja kiinnostus päivittää sivua.
Puli-neitimme Weetoneon She´s The One on matkustanut Englantiin, ja viettää vuoden kasvattajiensa luona,
ja ehtii toivon mukaan saada yksi pentue, ja käydä jkv näyttelyissä.

Näyttää siltä että Catsy on jälleen kerran tyhjä.  Hänet on astutettu kahdesti, kahdella eri uroksella, ilman tulosta.
Tämä tarkoittaa sen, että hänet poistetaan meidän kasvatussuunnitelmista.

Viime lauantaina saimme surullisen viestin Mirandalta,  hänen äiti Barbara Blake (Corydon) oli kuollut.
Barbara oli meidän "mentori", minun "isoäitini", ystäväni, henkilö johon aina käännyin jos tarvitsin neuvoja jalostukseen -
jäämme ikuisesti kaipaamaan häntä.  Maailma on huonompi ja tylsempi paikka ilman Barbaraa -  hänen rakkaus rotuun,
hänen iloinen nauru, hänen ainutlaatuinen huumori sai aikaan ainutlaatuinen, Aito, Todellinen Lady!!
Suremme John, Mirandan ja Julianin kanssa, ja haluamme omistaa Vuolasvirta-palkintomme Barbaralle.

Carnoustie´s Collies saa joulukuussa 2010 Vuolasvirta-palkinnon.

07.09.2010 Semen check - siittiöiden tarkastus
FI RU CH, 6 x CC, 3 x BOB, 2 x BIG-1 Carnoustie´s Will Beam Me Up´semen was checked today, and no sign of any infections,
he has loads of healthy, happy swimmers, and is available at stud for healthy bitches again.

(he was examined spring 2010 when he left 2 bitches empty, though he always has been a very reliable stud, and there was some
signs of infection. Tests were carried out in Germany, but no specific infection could be found ,and he was tested negative for
herpes, clamydia, brucella and mycoplasma. After treatment with antibiotics he is ok again, luckily! So he is welcoming bitches again.

FI RU MVA, 6 x SERT, 3 x ROP, 2 x RYP-1 Carnoustie´s Will Beam Me Upin siittiöt tarkastettu tänään, ja kaikki kunnossa, ei
tulehduksen merkkejä enää, ja siittiöitä löytyy paljon.  Joten hän on taas käytettävissä jalostukseen.

(hänet tutkittiin keväällä 2010 kun jätti 2 narttua tyhjäksi ja silloin löytyi epämääräinen tulehdus, vaikka herpes, clamydia, brucella
ja mycoplasma-testit olivat negatiivisia).  Onneksi saatiin hänelle antibioottihoito hyvissä ajoin, ja nuoriherra kunnossa taas :).

INT BALT FIN SE RU EST LV LT CH, BALTJW-03 Carnoustie´s Viva La Diva, 12.9.2002 - 15.7.2010.
Viva recovered very slowly from her surgery last year when she had dead puppies, and now got a new

A big thank you goes to our dear friends and veterinarians, Ursula and Joakim, for always being there for
us when we need you, thank you!

A big heart has stopped, a strong character is missing from our gang, and our house will never be the same again.
Rest in Peace, dear Viva-vovven, we will always love you - thank you for all laughs during the years,
all our adventures at home and abroad, and thank you for the wonderful children and grandchildren you
gave us - through them your soul and spirit  lives on.  As long as we remember you,  you are still here
with us.


Take my kisses and love with you to doggy heaven, and share some of them with the love of my live -
your Daddy, Corydon Will Carnegie

26.06.2010 Saved by the dog from a bear attacking! / Koira pelasti omistajansa karhun hyökkäyksestä
Young Rio, Carnoustie´s Addicted to Desire, did a very brave thing yesterday. His owner Mirja Airila was
out walking him  on the fields in Kangasala, when they met a bear. The bear became aggressive and
came running towards Mirja and Rio, stopped once and showed attack behaviour, and then continued to
rush towards Mirja and Rio. Mirja did as you are supposed to do when a bear attacks, she stood still, but
the bear anyhow approached them in high speed.
 When the bear was 48 feet away, 5 months old Rio started to defend his owner and himself, by barking  
aggressively and going towards the bear - and, the bear turned around.
Without doubt, Rio saved his owners, and his own life!
Nuori Rio pelasti emäntänsä Mirja Airilaa eilen, kun heidän päälle hyökkäsi aggressiivinen karhu - lue lisää:

Both ladies that visited Willson were empty, so we checked his sperm. His sperm quality is, as usual, excellent
with lots of semen of correct type. He had some proteine in the semen, which CAN indicate an infection.
His prostata is of normal size.His semen was sent to Germany for further examinations, and he is on antibiotics.
He will be unavailable for stud, for  about 2 months, until we have re-checked his sperm and the signs of a possible infection is gone.

WHAT A YEAR!!!

Closing the year 2009 ..

 
Once again a year has gone by - time flies when you are having fun.

I am convinced that I will forget some good results in this resume, as dogs bred by us have had such many successes 
in many countries – so if you read this, and your dog is not listed, just remind me !
(I had to leave out BM/BB-placings, otherwise this text would go on for ever, so I have only listed CC-winners).

New champions:

RU CH Carnoustie´s Symbol of Glory became new RKF and BLR CH, and took during this also BOB, BIG-2 in Belarus.
Carnoustie´s Solange became RU J CH, RU J CLUB CH in just five (international) shows in Russia.
RU J CH Carnoustie´s Attired By Frost became RU CH by taking 3 x CC, 1 xBOS, 1xBOB, BIG-1, BIS-3.
Carnoustie´s Object of Desire at Corydon visited Finland for two periods during 2009 and became FI CH, taking in 17 shows 
3 x CC, 3 x CACIB, 3 x resCACIB, 7 x BOS, and also 6 x BM-placement, approved temperament test.
He finished his stay in Finland as # 2 Top Rough Collie Male in Finland, and #1 Top Sable Collie!


His litter sister Carnoustie´s La Dolce Vita completed her FI CH title in 8 shows during one month, and took 3 x CC, 1 x res-CC. 
She already earlier had approved temp test.
Rejejs Joie De Vivre completed her FI CH title by taking 3 x BOB, BIG-1, BIS-1 and approved temp test.
Carnoustie´s Will Beam Me Up visited Russia for a couple of weeks, and took 3 x CC,  3 x BOB, 2 x BIG-1 and became RU CH.

 CC/CACIB-winners:

In Latvia, Carnoustie´s Flower Power took her first CC, CACIB, BOS being also LVW-09.
In Denmark, Carnoustie´s Xtremely Xclusive started his career well by taking CC, BOS at the Voldum Christmas show for a breed specialist judge, 
only beaten by the WW-09 bitch.
In Estonia, Carnoustie´s Beam of Light took his first junCC and junBOB, being also BOS at the international show in Tartu.
In Kokkola Carnoustie´s Baltic Frost took the the resCC on Saturday, and the following day  in Pietarsaari the CC. 
She also got approved temp test with high points.
FI RU EE CH Carnoustie´s Silver Flower took CACIB, BOS at Oulu international, and BB-2, rCACIB in Pori.
The fabulous young  Carnoustie´s Double-O-Seven took BM-3, CC at Pori international show at his first show ever in junior class, 
and the following day CC, BOS at main speciality show.
Carnoustie´s Solitaire gave us a storm-warning in Jyväskylä and Turku international shows by being BB-3,resCC, and BB-2, CC and 
completed her year with the finest achievement of them all, CC, BOB, FIN JV-09, V-09 at the Finnish Winner Show in Helsinki !!
The following day Carnoustie´s Moon Goddess made our weekend even more perfect, by being CC, CACIB, BOB, NORDV-09 !!

Also many of our breedings were placed in BM-/BB-classes and got resCCs, we believe that these promising dogs will have further success next year.

Our breeders class was BOB-breeder 8 times (including both Finnish Winner- and Nordic Winner Show!),
and in Kauhajoki we made it all the way to BIS-1.
Our breeder class was also presented in Denmark at the Christmas show, with 2, POH and wonderful critique
from the breed specialist judge, who wanted to take the dogs with her back to England.

Temperament tests:

FI CH Carnoustie´s Object of Desire at Corydon approved +125, gunshot unexperienced
Carnoustie´s Beloved Velvet, approved +123, gunshot secure
Carnoustie´s Love Supreme, approved +157, gunshot secure
Carnoustie´s Baltic Frost, approved +174, gunshot secure.

Breeding from Carnoustie:

In Denmark, both male Carnoustie´s Silver Power and female  Flower Play have produced big litters of
quality puppies with extremely good merle colours.
In Russia, CH Carnoustie´s Attired By Frost have produced two very big litters with quality puppies of
extremely good merle colours.
In Norway, CC-winner Carnoustie´s Blue Goddess produced a beuatiful litter to the WW-08 male, 
and also here excellent merle colours and already wins in puppy classes.
In Denmark, Carnoustie´s Fly Me To the Moon have left excellent health results to her children, 
six out of seven pups x-rayed, all with A-hips. She is believed to have the highest Blup-index that any collie has in Denmark.

Stud dogs:

blue merle male Xtremely Blue Carnoustie From Fantazija got one litter including one puppy during 2009 at Pajukola. 
The youngsters from his big litter at Päivi Kaski´s kennel have been x-rayed, eight of nine are examined, and all with A-hips and 0-elbows. 
It seems he will be a strong inheriter of good bodies, good health, good blue colours and better heads than he has himself.

Also his young children  have been very succesful on the show point of view: LV J CH Ironica, BALT EE LV LT J CH Impressive Blue Fantazija, 
multiple junCC winner  It´s My Turn Fantazija, LT J CH multiple CC winner Ice´N Fire Fantazija etc.

Sable male RU CH Carnoustie´s Will Do Impact sired a litter at Usvapilven kennel, and the puppies look extremely promising, 
this was an interesting combination of our lines together with dogs with american bloodlines.

During 2009 FI CH Carnoustie´s Object of Desire at Corydon sired litters in Drivergold, Rantapaikan, Soonist and Caprice Catherine in Russia, 
and the young puppies look extremely promising. His oldest daughter in England, Corydon Copperita returned to the show ring after her maternal 
duties and was BOB, BIG-3, Crufts qualified at open show level, and took also one rCC.  

 Breeding at Carnoustie:

This year we only got one litter, from multiple CC-CACIB winner Xtremely Blue Carnoustie From Fantazija and Pahlex Attired by Addict, 
consisting of three males, amongst them DK export CC, BOS-winner Carnoustie´s Xtremely Exclusive. 
Also his tri brother has done well at his first shows in Finland.

Viva La Diva, Prima Fantazija and Moon Goddess were mated, with no success. As Prima Fantazija had  been mated several times,
with poor results, we let her go to our friends as a pet. Moon Goddess will probably be mated 2010 on Sandcastle´s prefix. 
Viva La Diva will possibly be mated 2010, time will tell.

 Health results:

8 Carnoustie´s examined in Finland, all HD-free and ED-free.
2 Carnoustie´s examined in Sweden, both HD-free and ED-free.
1 Carnoustie examined in Denmark, HD-free.

The year also have brought some sorrow – we had to say goodbye to our lovely young blue bitch Skorpan. May her death give us, 
and perhaps also someone else, the reminder that usually there is no use in trying to save a puppy that is born very weak – 
they are not meant to live. She will be sadly lost, but always stays in our memories as the loving, clever, beautiful little blue rascal 
who gave us so much happiness and joy during these two years. Rest in Peace Skorpsi-lorpsi!

My own health has not this year either been the best one, my neck problems continued and after (finally!) more thorough examinations 
we discovered that I have one disc prolapse also in my neck, and one protruding disc plus some other minor damages. 
So thank you my dear horse that caused the riding accident 20 years ago, if you weren´t dead already, 
I would be very pleased to slice you into pieces myself ;).

I would like to say thank you to all friends, co-competitors, owners to ”our” dogs, for making this a remarkable year that we will never forget –
the icing of the cake was ofcourse the tremendous success we had a the winner shows in Helsinki, I think that we were the only breeder that 
had so many breedings placed in BM/BB-placings (2 x BOB with 2 x CC, 1 x CACIB, 2 x BOB-breeder, BM-2 rCACIB, BM-3 rCACIB, BB-4 rCC).

The biggest thanks goes to my mother, who takes care of our dogs while we are away at shows – and thank you  OUR DOGS – 
we love you all, and you are all companion and friends, and some of you are also succesful show- and stud dogs - 
but the most important thing is the joy and pleasure you give us every day, just by being here!!!

We wish everyone a Happy New Year 2010, and look forward to meeting you all at shows, trainings,and tests !

 Sussi & Thomas
