On Friday morning we went to Bingen on the Rhine. We arrived about 17 and after a walk with dogs we had a nice dinner with friends from Germany. We lay down early to rest after a long journey and get up well rested the next day. In the morning Bingen greeted us with rain and our basenji were not satisfied, but after reaching the place of the exhibition and pitching the tent, the rain stopped and the weather was getting better and better every minute. First, males started, among them Goldi's dad, Sasan (SULLA Liwang, owned by Burudika kennel) who did a great job winning the Club Winner tittle.
Finally, it was time for the intermediate class girls and Goldi. The judge, Paula Steele from England (kennel Akmar), thought a long time, but finally pointed to Goldi in the first place, thanks to which she started her German Championship and it was already a success for me. It turned out that this is not the end of our successes. In comparison of bitches, Goldi beat female from class: open, champions and veterans and became Best Bitch in Breed and received the Club Winner tittle !!! and finally, in comparison with her dad, she won the entire exhibition and got BISS !!!
We did not expect such a great result in our wildest expectations. This is a huge success, especially from a breed specialist and a breeder.

On the first free day of the long May free week we went on coursing to the town of Rybnica near Jelenia Góra. This is the competition in which dogs chase the bait (here rabbit skin). The bait is stretched on a metal cord, marking the race track and pulling when the dogs start.
The weather was beautifull, it was sunny, but not too hot. It was the first event of this kind for us and for Goldi. We didn't know if she would like it. There were a lot of greyhounds for which they were official competitions and 9 basenji (7 from the Czech Republic and 2 from Poland). In the Czech Republic, this sport discipline is already very developed among basenji. Here in Poland, there were show runs but thanks to the courtesy of the Czech judges our basenji were also judged. In the first race Goldi was on the list as 9, so she ran without a pair. It went great. She overcame the entire 700 m track without losing the lure and shortening the path and placed in 4th place. In the next start she ran with an experienced Czech dog. The first half went very well, but at some point both dogs lost their lure and only the Czech dog quickly tracked him back. Goldi fiercely sought the rabbit skin and she stopped when the assistant show to her the bait. She was finally happy. After such a start her final place was 5th place. As for the first meeting with such a form of activity, we think it was a very successful result, and above all we are happy that Goldi like it and we will definitely go on coursings as much as possible.
