25.11.2023 – The Javůrek Memorial in Prostějov

Ria (Charisma Radinie) attended the first trial in her life in the IGP1 cathegory (obedience/defence only) – and despite some faults in both disciplines, she won the 4th place (70/87 points). Obedience was not very successful because Ria went for defence at the moment but defence was very good. She showed excellent drive and enthusiasm for work typical for her.

24. – 29.10.2023 – ISPU World Championship, St. Veit an der Glan (Austria)

This year despite the fact that I didn´t attend the Championship with my females, we have three competitors with dogs from our kennel in the Czech national tracking team:

Vladimír Jirkovský + Boris Arx Fortunae (Czech champion KCHK IFH2 2023)
Maruška Lohrerová + Aurelia Arx Fortunae (Czech vice champion KCHK IFH2 2023)
Petr Žižka + Asterix Arx Fortunae (3rd place in Czech Championship KCHK IFH2 2023)

And they were more than successful!!!

Maruška Lohrerová with Eliška (Aurelia AF) have become the ISPU IGP-FH World Vice champion and also the ISPU IGP-FH World Team Vice champion with Vladimír Jirkovský and Boris AF!!!!

Unfortunately, Petr with Asterix were not so successful, they didn´t finish the tracks but it happens. Asterix is a very talented dog so they will definitely win next time.

So, my dear Maruška, Vláďa and Petr, I am very proud of you, you are my stars and heroes, the best of the best!!! A lot of congratulations to you and thanks for great representation of my kennel!!!!

Immediately after the obedience, she got in my car and went for a FPr 3 track. Despite continuing hot weather and the fact that she started as a first dog, she won the third place with 93 points! She is my great girl!!!

29.04.2023 – Czech Republic Schnauzer Club Championship in Tracking in Záměl

This year the Czech Republic Schnauzer Club Championship was connected with the phenomenal success of our kennel!!!

The Championship was perfectly organized by Petr Žižka (Asterix AF´s owner) and his collegues. Moreover, Petr with Asterix competed in the Master cathegory IFH2. In the IFH2 cathegory, Marie Lohrerová + Aurelia AF and Vladimír Jirkovský + Boris AF also competed. And in the FPr3 cathegory, our kennel was represented by Aleš Křepela + Ajax AF and me + Bibiana AF.

So 5 dogs competing in the Championship and all of them winners!!!

FPr3:

Aleš Křepela + Ajax Arx Fortunae – 1st. place
Hana Konrádová + Bibiana Arx Fortunae – 2nd. place

Ajax with Alešem worked very hard, the track was flawless and Aleš acted like a experienced professional – thanks so much, Aleš!

I was excited about our Bíba – unfortunately she had to work on the compensatory track (it means to leave the first track, to put the dog to car without a treat and after two hours start again) but Bíba coped the situation perfectly. She is my Miss Perfect. You can see the Biba´s track video.

IFH2:

Vladimír Jirkovský + Boris Arx Fortunae – 1st place
Marie Lohrerová + Aurelia Arx Fortunae – 2nd place
Petr Žižka + Asterix Arx Fortunae – 3rd place

An absolutely phenomenal success of Dora´s (Andora pro Marii) sieblings – three dogs from two litters (with two different sires) and so great tracers!!! And moreover, they were the only dogs which achieved the exam limit! A lot of congratulations, Vladimír, Maruška and Petr, you are simply great and I was very proud of you to see you on the podium!!! Thanks a lot!!!

20.11.2022 – Winter team trial in Uničov

The first competition, we attended with Biba this year, was Winter team trial in Uničov. Our team competed in IGP1 – Biba in obedience and our friend Radka Mačáková and her malinois Ejsa in defence. And both dogs worked very hard – we won the second place! Because Biba was in heat, we competed as the last couple and Biba won 98 points in obedience!

And a lot of thanks to Kristýnka with Brutus AF and Aleš with Ajax AF – they competed in ZM cathegory and despite the disqualification they were great and courageous. Thanks very much for representation!!!
