Vladimir’s arrival at the kennel was, in Olga’s eyes, a disaster. She had so many hopes and plans for the dog, already seeing him as a top stud one day, and yet – his skittishness and low motivation for any working discipline shattered her dreams right at the very start. Each time Essie visited her beloved grandmother, she’d have to listen to her whining about how “useless” Vladimir was and how she’d very much be willing to give him away rather than try and train him.

Essie didn’t agree with her. There was something about that gentle giant which touched her heart, and she was determined to prove her grandmother otherwise. If Didi wasn’t the most energetic dog for hunting, he could at least make a fine conformation candidate – or so Essie hoped at least. After all, he was quite a stunner, and there was something fine and aristocratic in his stance, reminding her of his sister, the successful Delilah.

And so, Essie decided to take Didi to his – and her – very first show. The trip was tiresome, long, and uncomfortable for both of them, but all of it was quickly forgotten once they arrived at their destination. In a matter of days, the show soon started, and, while Essie would never have admitted that aloud, she was very nervous. So was poor Didi; it was more than obvious in his eyes and his stance. And yet, he did very well in the ring, trotting alongside his mistress and showing off his long, silken coat which Essie made sure to thoroughly brush. He then patiently stood by her side, keeping his tail low and shyly watching the other dogs and handlers that quickly gathered nearby.

Essie could only hope that she’d return home with a ribbon she could shove under Olga’s nose with the defiance of youth.
