WSM 2019 summary!

WSM 2019  – we still do not have enough words do describe it all…
Years of work resulted with amazing 4 days that passed like a blink of an eye.
We feel empty at the moment as all the people have left. Many of you have already arrived back home, when some are still on their way 🚗✈️ BUT our hearts are filled with total happiness, love, unforgettable emotions & feelings 😍And of course gratitude towards you all! 💞

WE WOULD LIKE TO SAY VERY BIG THANK YOU TO ALL THE PEOPLE WHO MADE UP WSM 2019! 🙏
We would like to thank:
🌸Our wonderful JUDGES, who spent long and busy days in the showring giving valuable feedback about our four-legged smiling participants.
Thank you Janet Ainscow (AU), Tuula Pratt (FI), Penny Roberts (UK), Katarzyna & Andrzej Szutkiewicz (PL).
🌸 Our good SUPPORTERS (list below) and our main sponsor DAGSMARK, who made sure, that we can offer only the best of the best to our participants.
🌸 Our lovely PARTICIPANTS from all over the world 🌎 You, who you took the journey from near and far, to come together for this weekend. For your always positive attitude that made these days a quality time among wonderful samoyed people
🌸 Our white and fluffy FOUR-LEGGED SAMOYED PARTICIPANTS 🐶without who we couldn’t have had those very emotional and unforgettable two show days.
🌸 The members of our little WSM 2019 ORGANIZING TEAM, who made all of this to happen from level zero – from brainstorming to reality.
🌸 All the LECTURERS, PERFORMERS AND SPEAKERS who led the programs during the daytime and evenings.
🌸 All our wonderful and positive VOLUNTEERS AND ALL OTHER SAMOYED PEOPLE who supported us during this adventure and without who this all couldn’t be possible!

We love you all to the moon and back 💖 and we are looking forward meeting you again at WSM in Slovakia in 2022! 🇸🇰 And of course we hope to see you at Estonian Samoyed specialty show already in February 2020! 🇪🇪
