Hello, I am Mary.

 

I was only 4 months old on this picture.

 

 

I was born on February 9th 2002.
My mother couldn’t really tell her breeder, which name she would have preferred for me, so the breeder simply called me

Mary May

plus Siradella´s

whoa, I can tell you, it’s not easy for a pup ….


But my parents ….  

That sounds like a big deal, BGH1 Siradella’s Felina … Siradella’s again …. hmmm, Felina sounds nice, but what about this BGH1 in her name ??? ts … ts ...

 Oops … I think I’ve got it now , when Mum’s name is Siradella’s and my name is Siradella’s, then this must be our family name ?/ last name ? :-) ... and this “BGH1” is a “performance record” maybe ... ??? ... :-)


And now my father ….

What does that sound like … Austrian Clubjuniorwinner, Austrian Bundessieger, Austrian Champion,

 Barbarossa Ma Che Bello

My Mum had the expert’s eye with this guy, he is sooo beautiful,
he has an Italian forename, but he’s from Linz.

Well, although Luigi is not a real Latin lover, the mating must have been a real funny thing, as my breeder had some problems after that.

 Grown to a juvenile dog, I achieved the title “Austrian Club Youth Winner” at my first exhibition,
the
 
Austrian Bullterrier Club Show - 2003

So me and Daddy have this title in common.

 At my second exhibition, the CACIB-Show Oberwart, my owner made some mistakes in handling, that’s why I could ONLY take home an excellent 3.
Well, I could have put up my ears , but I didn’t want to … it was so loud there ….and I was tired.
But an excellent 3 is not bad for a second exhibition, it shows that I really have a huge potential.

At the third exhibition it was really hot, but I was completely happy with my
excellent 1 rating
at the
 CACIB-Show Innsbruck

It didn’t went that well at the CACIB-Show Tulln.
The judge said I was too fat and wrote that down on my critique paper. He wasn’t amused about the way I
presented myself either and wrote that down too - “would like to see more movement and temperament”.
My owner wasn’t amused either and had a rather disgruntled face expression because of my stubborn behaviour … but at home we had a nice cuddle and everything was forgotten. :-)

A real faux-pas happened at the CACIB-Show Wels
I should have been more into it. My owner was in a real good mood all day long (that happens not often with him). We were running … and how we were running, you should have seen it … but then I didn’t want to anymore and stopped.
My owner didn’t realize that immediately but could stop before he would have strangled me with the show-lead. That was whether amusing for the judge nor for my owner.
I think I heard the word “FAT” again, I think I will have to go on a diet.
Sonja meets with the “Weight watchers” once a week … I think she will have to take me with her .
Since my heat I put on a bit too much weight I think and I’m on a –2800 % ration concerning food …
they didn’t give me my daily pig ear either !!!

I thought that we have the breeding licence wit two excellent 1 – ratings ? and the rest doesn’t really count. I think my owner is a bit too fussy, fussier than I thought he was .

 Heeeeelp meeeeee …. I want my pig ear,
no veggie – rice – soufflé .

Would somebody please initiate a pig ear – donation account for me?


Ok, nobody initiated an account, I have to deal with my owners all alone and by myself. 
Hihi, … it wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be
:-)


Well, the first exhibition in 2004 was the
CACIB-Show Graz.
Everything went fine , Sonja was happy , Daniel was happy …
Stupid mat in the metal frame at the hall entrance.
 I got stuck in it with my left foreleg and split one of my nails.

I bled like a stabbed pig.
The nail had to be removed by the veterinary doctor inside the hall.


O
OOWWWW!!!



Nevertheless we competed in the ring and got a nice critique from the judge. Unfortunately he couldn’t rate me as I was sick and couldn’t run properly.
You should have seen the poor look on my face, it warmed all hearts around the ring.
On the way home, at a quick stop at a roadhouse I already felt a lot better, I could even play with another dog and jump the metre high snow drifts.

Daniel said that I am spoilt and rotten.
*looking-innocently* … such a heartless person.

Despite the fact that the veterinary doctor had to take care of my paw and I was kind of lame for some time , I did quite well at the CACIB-Show Wieselburg.
There was a carpet in the whole ring, which supported my ill paw very much.
 

Against all expectations , I didn’t do well at the Austrian Bullterrier Club Show - 2004.
It was hot and there were a lot of high-class dogs in the ring.
It was a wonderful day, the weather was very nice.
I finally got my pig ear …..
and you can’t win all the time.
We will survive the “Very Good” – rating

*ggg*

At the next exhibition, the CACIB-Show Oberwart, it was a pleasure for us to win a second place.
Well, we lost against our good friend Helldog Lola :-)
But hold on, one day we are going to beat YOU,
*devilsmile*
