Sava Sara Brakada, AKA Xsara was born on 06-27-2004. She was raised in Kennel Brakada spending the first two months of her life on beautiful countryside Gorenjska (Slovenia) with her siblings and parents. As soon as she came to Ljubljana we started a puppy class, followed by an obedience class. She passed her B-bh exam with 96 points (instructor Agility EO winner Polona Bonač). We now continue with Rally-Obedience under Polona's supervision. Our biggest passion however is Agility. We started our first Agility class in October 2005 (club Agility Ilirija, instructor Silvia Trkman, two times agility world champion). When Silvia stopped teaching agility classes, we switched to Daša Zakotnik. We regularly participate in Agility trials in Slovenia and sometimes abroad. Xsara also loves to learn new dog tricks, you can see some of them in our videos. Her other passions include long walks, big meals and playing with dogs, specially her pyr shep sister Tani, her crazy agility pals and her sister Sena.

Agility Photos

Thanks to Srdan Mohorič for two beautiful new agility pictures of Xsara, taken in Ptuj!



Our club is helping with the organisation of Belgian Shepherds World Championship which is taking place in Slovenia this week, so we'll be kind of busy over the weekend. I will try to take some pictures of the event, but Xsara won't be going with me because she is terrified of big dogs and it would be really cruel to take her to such an event.

UPDATE: I just got the confirmation that Xsara was accepted to European Open 2008! She will compete both individually and in Slovenia 1 Team with a mix and a miniature pincher.
