sooooo excited! on sunday we'll go on the ring!!! GOOOOO REMBRANDT!!!
ps. Rembrandt, pleeeeze, don't jump ON the judge lickin' his face, his nose, his ears and waggin'your tail extremely fast!!! please! people thinks you are a very aggressive, dark, bitin', barkin' DOG... not a peluche!

That would be fitting since that is what they do to their owners (bruises).

Been on vacation...but I'm back

I think Rembrandt is a good type, his size is perfect for that age, weight too.
Good luck sunday! Overhere most judges laugh when yet another DS tries to lick them in the face...young dogs can be forgiven for this

Best of luck tomorrow----your boy is beautiful! Get pictures!!!!!!

sorry for not being here for so long. I have so many troubles with my rottie, anyway, in the national show rembrandt took a ugly VeryGood and stop there. But i tried again to the international show in bergamo last sunday in open class, and GreatRembrandt at 16 months get 1ECC CAC CACIB BOB then we went to the group, there were 20 dogs most of them beautiful long haired show_dressed shepherds..and... Rembrandt get 3 at Best Of Group! Yeah! Striped power!!!

Impressive!!! Congratulations!
Did you get pictures??

I know that makes you proud! Congratulations.
I am sure you already know that it is just a game, and just 'one moment in time'. Your dog does not always perform the same, and no two judges are totally alike. Glad you tried again after your first disappointment. He will do good at times, and not so good at others. It's quite normal if you do anything with your dog. (Performance, show, all the same. If you subject yourself to being judged, you will also be disappointed)
Sorry to hear that you are having trouble with your Rott.
Now...yes...pictures please?

This is the podium of the Group 1 in the international Show.
1st place: PASTORE BERGAMASCO -
2nd place: Bobtail- Old english shepherd
3rd place: me & Great Rembrandt

not focused pic... but... great position of Bran Bran!!! <3

and then...



Very Happy!!!

Very nice Eli. He is indeed looking good.

Congratulations! He is looking great next to the fluff puffs!

awesome!!

Congrats!!

Wow! Huge congrats! 3rd of group!! That is really good!!

big thanks to u all! My little big boi bebè says thank you walkin 1meter over the ground.. The judge of group took me apart and told me in a small voice "so impressed to see a working dog in this great condition, a short haired dog, dark dog on this difficult podium.. He eats the ring this dog is born for the show.." uhm.. I think this dog is born for work, and he fulfills my expectation, i am very happy to have another time (in italy many envy people says that i'm very lucky with my dogs, just luck, eh? Not the time i spent to search them, choose them, work with them, creating a good relationship with them...no! Only luck..) a Beautiful working dog..

Judith, thank you for such an enlightening discussion. Tracedog and now Sakima had/has big amber eyes, and I am a total sucker for them. but with Xander I came to appreciate the incredible dramatic impact of the dark eyes against the white as they track an object of interest.

Very nice and well done with your group results !!

But... who's the judge who gave him a "Very Good" ???
