BONITATION AND YOUTH PRESENTATION:
http://dl.wolfdog.org/pics/gallery/b...h_DSCF0082.JPG

What is a bonitation?
In the countries of origin of the bonitation decides whether the dog will be allowed for breeding. In Poland, it is the best and most objective form of checking your dog in terms of appearance and character. This is a test, which should pass every Wolfdog. This year the bonitation will be held according the Lithuanian regulations, which informs, and does not discriminate...

What is evaluated?
By puppies (by the youth presentation) the judge is trying to assess the future value of the puppy - the owner gets an accurate and very detailed description of the dog with the overall assessment (very promising, promising, less promising).
By adult dogs (during the bonitation) assessment is much more accurate - the dog is measured, all its disadvantages(and advantages) are listed. The second part is a test character - a reaction to the shots and attack. The Lithuanian grading there is no(!) "P" code - nobody evaluates the dog with a note, because in the most cases "P" has nothing to do with the real value of the dog = a perfect dog with one, and only one disadvantage gets usually in the origin countries a lot worser note than a dog which is below the average (has nothing good, but also nothing wrong).

Age categories:
youth presentation (svod mladych):
for puppies and young dogs from 3 to 15 months (but older dogs are also allowed)

How to get to us?

Późna is very hard to find... So I have included here help how to reach us.

It looks quite complicated but the way is pretty simple: if you go the direction from Zielona Góra please take direction on Slubice, before Krosno Odrzanskie turn to Guben (border pass in Gubinek), that means go newly built road straight towards Germany, practically to the very border. Approx. 500 meters before the pass (behind first petrol station) turn left. If you go from Germany after you cross the border (approx. 500 meters after the pass) turn right on the first crossing.
And then straight (approx. 10km). Be watchful behind the "Markosice" village – by "sharp left turn" sign there will be asphalt-driveway to the woods. This is the road to our seat (good eye will notice a bust stop hidden between the trees and a road sign "Pozna 1").

No. 26 is very easy to be found – not too much choice Wink. Go the asphalt-driveway through the woods and village. Turn right as soon as the asphalt ends. And than straight (about 300 meters). The numbers 26 is on the right side...
