On the weekend of 2nd and 3rd March 2002 I
visited the city of Munich, where the ADRK LG Bavaria-South were hosting
a Special Breed Show as part of the VDH International All-Breeds Show. Rottweilers
were exhibited on Sunday, 3rd March 2002. Judging started
at 10h00. The judge was Mr Edgar Hellmann. I stayed
in a Bed and Breakfast in Karlsfeld, north of Munich, so that my traveling
time to the Olympia Park was short. I received excellent directions
from Mr Max Berger, who gave me the button on the day of the show.
Thank you, Mr Berger! I also met Anton
Spindler again, whom we had last visited at his training club in
August 2000 as part of our IFR tour. |

Rottweilers were exhibited in ring 20 in the
small Olympia Hall. This was an indoor hall, with the judging ring
measuring about 7 by 12 meters in size. The floor was slippery, with
only a single carpet runner down the center of the ring. I was
unfamiliar with these show conditions, and thought them not ideal
for exhibiting a working dog. Nevertheless, it proved a worthwhile
learning experience.
Unfortunately I did not take my video camera along on this trip, so
that I cannot show any pictures of the participating Rottweilers.
Two of the winners took part in the ADRK
Frühjahrskörung 2001, though. You will find pictures of them
if you follow their link.
