I wasn't going to bother with photos today, after the lovely weather we've had today is a disappointment, but then I saw Siska standing on the wall and noticed the clouds behind her - wow there is beauty in all weathers!
The memories on Facebook from two years ago bring back such happy times, that lovely family of five and my little "Geraldine" shining brightly in the middle of the brood. Siska is now coming back into full bloom, I do hope her season hold out till March, well after Crufts anyway, I'd love to get her there.
In many ways Siska is the perfect dog, she is self-confident, though a little strong-willed. At shows she's the easiest ever, she doesn't bat an eyelid at anything going on about her, she'll sit in that chair and just relax. She has no interest in other people's dogs, and has very little interest in people, unless they are eating. So confident is she in her own skin that she can be sniffed by dogs, petted by people and gives no reaction to other dogs aggression or anxiety around her. Ok she's not the best at showing herself off, in stance she is a picture - but she sees little reason why she should put enthusiasm into gaiting. Seriously it all be part of her nature though, chilled and relaxed.
Where Siska lets her self down is with her mother, she's an absolute witch with her. Poor Kaiah hasn't ever told her off and now lives to regret it, honestly she gives her no peace to the point that for Kaiah's sake I'm thinking of revamping the walks! We'll see!
