Kennel Kadamo celebrating 15 years of breeding rhodesian ridgebacks!

This past weekend I had a big event together with dogs I have bred during the past 15 years. The oldest dog present was Meya from my B-litter now 14 years old! 
During these 15 years I have had 16 litters which means 163 registered puppies. Of course many of them are not with us anymore due to age or illness, but many of them are and I am so happy that I get to see them at activities like this!
So I want to start off by saying thank you to everyone who attended during one or both days this weekend. I am so glad to be able to see my "pups" and you, all their lovely owners. I really hope you enjoyed the weekend as much as I did!
If I have counted correctly we had 38 dogs attending during Satuday and Sunday, and even more people. 

On Saturday we were at VHS, Västerås Hundkappbana were we got to try dogracing on their beautiful track. Thank you for having us again and for your great assistance and for the food you served.
We also got to learn and try specialsearch for red kong in guidance of Marita Teräs, thank you so much! 
My collegue Emmelie Cronlund from work at Arken Zoo Veterinärklinik talked to us about First Aid for dogs and everyone got to learn the basics to evaluate their dogs in both everyday and emergency situations. Thank you Emmelie!

In the race we had three top winners and fun enough all from the same litter. On 1st place we had Nelson with 7,69 sec. On 2nd place we had Bosse with 7,91 sek and very close behind on 3rd place we had their sister Nada with 7,92 sec.
Congratulations to you all winners!

On Sunday we headed to Bergahundar hinderbana outside of Uppsala. There we got to learn about and try out canicross, bikejoaring, weightpull and canineobsticle coarse. 
It was all so much fun and the dogs seemed to enjoy themselves too. Such great way to build up both confidence in your dog but also the team and relationship you have with your dog. 
When we were done their we got a little lecture in preventive healthcare for dogs, stretching, massage and physical training with our favourite Emma Pettersson. Thank you again for sharing your time and knowledge with us Emma!

After lunch we headed down to Fyrisån in Uppsala where we got to try Stand Up Paddle board together with our dogs. It was so much fun and the dogs seemed to enjoy it too. I think only one dog jumped off the board, the rest sat or laid on it while cruising down the stream.
Thank you to Jennie and John at Bergahundar for a nice arranged day! 

I have around 200-250 pictures below taken by me, Jenni, Christoffer, Ellen and Bergahundar. Thank you all for helping me take pictures!

I want to say a big thank you to our sponsors for the nice gifts everyone has gotten this weekend. Thank you to Olivers Petfood, Virbac, Skin Agent, Back on track, Granngården Enköping, Arken Zoo Veterinärklinik, Agria, Jakke Röntynen and Lotta Tembert.

I already look forward to celebrate 20 years with a new dogweekend!
