Although it doesn't quite fit under Field Trial news, here are the latest Chesapeake results from Europe: My own Diamond's Maximum Surprise (Ch. Clipper's Frozen Assets x Ch. Lady Red Fire), together with team members Baeverasens Zeb (Golden R.; O/H Petra Soons) and Glen Mhor's Swift (Golden R., O/H Norma Zvolsky) won the annual International Working Test held this year in Breuil-Cervinia/Italy on july 2/3, 2005. Competitors in this difficult event held in the magnificent surroundings under the Matterhorn were from most continental European countries.
Also competing was Betty Schwieren with Cheslabben Pow Wow, who gained an admirable fourth place with her team.
Congratulations! Very cool to see the winning team consist of a Chessy and two goldens (and NO Labs!) Very nice work Christian and your Chessy is beautiful.
Really nice pictures too. I wouldn't have minded a visit to watch that trial, what a gorgeous area. I worked in Switzerland at the UN one summer (loooong ago!) and made that drive through the Swiss Alps to Italy and that is some spectacular scenery.
