I was so nervous, but he did great. After first run he did qualify to the finals.
In the finals he was attacked several times, it was really bad, but my boy just backed off
and tried to get around to do his job, follow the lure.
Since of all the trouble in the final, they stopped the race, and re-started whitout the "trouble-makers".
And by all kind of surprise "Qui" went 2nd with a res.CACIL!!!

The winner, and Nordic Champion-08, was the swedish "Viggo" and the owner (my personal racing-trainer),
Camilla, was THRILLED and so where we. This was SO great Camilla :-)
