NEW MILLENNIUM - YEAR 2000 STARTED

06.01.2000 Our first litter was born (5 males & 4 females). We started to start naming from letter H (because our kennel name starts with the same letter)
14.03.2000 Olga decided to run after a male dog (she had a season) and she ended up to Lohja's Police Departments jail !! It was rather embarrassing to pick her up. No harm was done...
22.06.2000 Siiri won Junior World Winner 2000 title in Milan, Italy. From Milan we drove to Forch, CH, and stayed almost a week with family Frölich, the owners of Hariba. The week in Switzerland was almost from dream. Thank you !
27.10.2000 Harjaselän Hera (aka Ronja) won Junior European Winner 2000 title in Poznan, Poland. Siiri also received a CWC (Polish CAC) and thus became Polish champion.
