20.10.2007 We made a show trip to Rakvere in Estonia. The judge for great danes was Piotr Krol from Poland. The critic was written in russian, so I don't have any idea what there is said about Danny, but I believe the judge liked about him a lot... The result was excellent in quality, best male with CAC and BOS! Our little Danny, a real dash of gold, is now also Estonian Champion!!
