We have had two litters. Daizy (U M Shine On) got 5 puppies in March. Proud father is Ch Trollängens Maximum Effect. Then Ronja (U M Sea Breeze) got a litter of 7 in May with our own Ch U M Sinbad.  We stayed home from shows most of the winter and spring, but we are very proud of Daizy`s third best bitch at SSRK in Strömsholm, Sweden in January. There was a entry of 127, judge was Frank Bjerklund, N.    Sandra (Ch U M Sandra Bullock) became best bitch both days in Trondheim in June, 56 and 65 entries.  She carried on with best bitch at Våler 4/7 and best bitch and BOB in Moss 26/7. At the moment mostwinning ESS bitch in Norway. Her brother, Solan (Ch U M Supernatural) became BOB at Våler, and our beloved Pontus (Ch U M Sinbad) got the CAC and became N Uch. Scarlett (U M Scarlett) also got the CAC, now only needs one more for her title. In Moss Pontus became best male, Solan fourth best male and the young daughter of Pontus, Piff (U M Sweet Lips) became fourth best bitch. In a short period in June/July Oscar (U M Supermario) took three times first prize in blood track (twice with a prize of honour) and became N VCH (norw. tracking champion) We are so proud of him and his owner Vibeke.   Pontus got the CAC and third best male at SKK Int Ransäter, Sweden 25/7. That made him S U(u)Ch. Little Svea (U M Sail On Silvergirl) became second best bitch with the CAC, right in front of her mother Sandra (resCacib). Yes, I do feel stupid! Today we have made an ERG-test on Ursa Major`s Savannah at The Norwegian School of Veterinary Science. She has PRA, quite far gone and hard to say, but most likely of Cord1 type. Several bloodtest are collected and hopefully we can do something for the research.  Our deepest gratitude to her owners, who did the long trip by train for this, and takes so good care of her and her little "sister" Ursa Major`s Sign Seal Deliver.  We are also most grateful to the Norwegian Spaniel Club, helping and supporting us! Vi har i dag fått utført en ERG-test av Ursa Major`s Savannah ved Norges Veterinærhøyskole. Hun har PRA, forholdsvis langt framskreden. Dette gjør det vanskelig å fastslå, men mest sannsynlig av typen Cord1. Flere blodprøver er samlet, og vi håper det kan bidra til videre forskning. Vi er svært takknemlige ovenfor hennes eiere som tok den lange turen med tog, og tar så godt vare på henne og hennes "lillesøster" Ursa Major`s Sign Seal Deliver. Vi setter også stor pris på NSK`s støtte!
