Our second weekend out this year…

After almost 2 years at home waiting for maturity, our clown “Thunder” is back in the rings and will be shown selectively next.
Thunder was RCAC on the first day under Mrs Wilfriede Schwerm-Hahne (behind the Bis winner) and BIS-3 at the Unofficial Technical Specialty under Mr Martial Robin.
Thanks to the judges for their beautiful words, and to the ringside crowd for their nice comments too.
Another beautiful happy, flying Afghan to have at the end of the lead!
