HISTORY

In November 2016 two members of the Bobtail Club of the Czech Republic, Petra Márová and Karolina Morrison, who were at that time in preparation for the Euro OES Show 2017, brought me to the idea of organizing the Euro Samoyed Show.

Thanks to the fact that the Bobtail club organized this show for the third time and with great success, I decided to implement this idea for the world of Samoyeds in the same year 2017. The show that the Samoyed Club wanted to organize had to be conceived as a Central European Show in order to be able to award the national CAC and CAJC titles. It was not entirely easy, we had to contact the Samoyed clubs of neighbou ring countries to confirm that they agree to hold such a show, and only then we could apply for the show. The preparations were challenging, to choose a suitable place where there would be the facilities for indoor show rings, a social hall for participants and visitors, the possibility of accommodation with dogs, and last but not least the possibility of some social activities of this meeting. Following the example of the Bobtail club, we have chosen an already proven place, Valtice castle. Everything was there and the whole Valtice area contributed to the wonderful atmosphere of our first Central European show, which was a great success.

The Euro Samoyed Committee was established as a part of the event, whose members were: Ota Janko (CZ), Renata Fossati (IT), Tuula Pratt (FIN) and Jana Fulierová (SK). The current members of the committee (5/2020) are: Paola Daffunchio (IT), Jenni Korpisalo FIN), Martin Henčel (SK) and Ota Janko (CZ).

I am very pleased that the Euro Samoyed Show found its supporters and in 2018 1st Euro Samoyed Show was held in Slovakia and then in 2019 the 2nd year, it took place in Estonia. I firmly believe that the tradition will continue.
