Three weeks ago Moa got sick very fast. She was very tired, had a fever and her heartrate was higher. I took her to work and did bloodtests and X-rays late in the evening. She had an infection and bad function in her liver, and we also found a livertumour the day after when we did an ultrasound. We started treatment for the infection and fever, and we got her feeling a lot better. When she was her worst I was afraid that she would not make it many days. So I was so relieved when she responded to her treatment.
She is now three weeks in, she is back to her normal self since the past two weeks. Her infection is gone for now, and some bloodwork for her liver is better, but still, she has a tumour in her liver... We have been to an onkologist for a second ultrasound and unfortunately the tumour is located in the middle of the liver, so there is no way to treat it or remove it. So for now, I try to just live and enjoy the present, since I don't know for how long I will get to have her with me.
I am just happy that she is still here, and despite the tumour feeling good. She doesn't seem to know that she is sick, and that is most important!
Moa is so special to me, not only is she the second dog I bought, only 22 years old. But she is the dog that really got me into breeding. She is the mother of 3 litters, grandmother to 4 litters and greatgrandmother to 1 litter here at Kadamo in Sweden. Out in the world there is even more wonderful grand and greatgrandkids of hers! 
So she sure has made an impact not only on my life, but on the life of all those dogowners who has a small piece of her at home.
Now, let's hope she can stay feeling this good for a long time! I know she is already old, 2 years and soon 2 months old. But I can't help but want to keep her around for longer. Her body is still strong! And her mind is too <3

Yesterday it was time for Colin's very first show in Openclass, since he just turned 2 years old three days ago this was also his very first chance to complete his championtitles.
Judge was Eva Jönsson and breedentry was 38. 
Colin won the openclass with CQ and placed as Best male in though competition. He won his last CAC aswell as Nordic CAC and later also won Best of breed!
So he completed not only his Swedish Show Championtitle, but also the Norwegian and Finnish Championtitle!
We decided to stick around for the finals where my by then very tired boy managed to place as BIG-4.
So proud of my young and gorgeous boy who did so well, just as he has his whole life! We have a few more shows left this year before we take a break until next year!

Yesterday Colin turned 2 years old and I guess I can now call this gorgous young boy a grown up! Not sure he will ever really act like one though, with his goofy and playful personality!
Below are some mixed photos that I took of him during our trip to Norway two weeks ago.

This past weekend NORDUCH EECH SEJW-12 Kadamo Rob Roy "Dexter" was on Saturday placed as 4th Best Male and Kadamo Nothing But Gold "Argos" was on Sunday placed as 3rd Best male with R-CAC. Well done both boys!

On Saturday it was time for the annual Kadamo Mästerskapen in Bloodtracking. It was 7 dogs competing this year and they all did great. Five of them recieved 1st prizes and this years winner was Isabel with SEVCH Kadamo Bloody Mary "Ebba" from the D-litter (Moa x Argos). The 2nd place went to Nadine and K

This weekend me and Colin drove to Lillehammer in Norway to attend two shows. Day 1 was the small RR-Speciality show judged by Rune Brunberg-Johansen. Colin was placed as Best male with CAC and BOS!
Day 2 was the International Show judged by Jelena Kruus, and once again Colin was placed as Best Male with the large CAC needed for the Championtitle aswell as CACIB.
Now we just wait until he turns 2 years old in less than two weeks and then we will start the "hunt" for that final CAC. When he completes it he will automatically complete the showchampiontitle for both Sweden, Norway and Finland.

Today Petra took her handsome and lovely boy Clinton to Askersund and today it was their turn to be on the right side of the "line"! Clinton was placed as 2nd Best Male with his last CAC which finally gave him the Swedish aswell as the Finnish Showchampiontitle!
He is now SEUCH FIUCH NOJW-16 Kadamo I Am High Quality! My biggest congratulations to his owner and handler for achieving this with this boy who soon turns 3 years old!
Very proud also so say that this is Mira's (CIB NORDUCH EECH SEVCH RLDN RLDF LP1 Kadamo Bringin' It Back) first showchampion offspring!

On Friday SEVCH RLDN RLDF Kadamo All You Need is Love "Lotus" from my Beatles-litter (Moa x Wilson) was put to sleep. During the last few months I have followed him and his owner fight off healthissues but in the end, they showed to be to much... Lotus had some form of cancer that most likely started in his prostate and spread to his lungs and what we think also somewhere in his skeleton causing him pain.
I want to say a very big thank you to Lillemor and Hasse for doing everything they could for him, but also thank you for being strong in the end making the decision that was best for him.
Sweet Lotus, you will always be in our hearts!

Today it was time for the International Dogshow Stoxa in Stockholm. Breedentry 31 and judge was Arja Koskelo, FIN. 
I showed Colin in intermediateclass which he won with EXC and CQ, but later unplaced in Best male. 
NOJW-16 Kadamo I Am High Quality "Clinton" recieved VG and finished 3rd in Openclass.
I also shoed youngster SEVCH Kadamo Brings It Back Again "Daisy" for the first time in intermediateclass. She won the class with EXC and CQ, went on to win Best Bitch with her 2nd CAC, first CACIB and she was Best Opposite!
Thank you for the photos Olle (owner of Daisy) and for watching Esther and Tove for me when I was in the ring!

Kadamo It Is All About Me "Ajax" from the It-litter (Mira x Boy) is spending his holiday at the island of Gotland with his owner Trixie, and I got these lovely photos of this gorgeous boy, now 1,5 years old.
