It is really easy but because Belgium is far away from breed origin countries it can be pretty expensive. If you want to make the bonitation you have to invite a club judge from Slovakia or Czech Republic. And that's all...

It can be a solution but you have also pay attention to other thing: a "beautiful" dog in France, Holland or some other West European countries is not always recognized as a "beautiful" dog in CZ or SK because those countries pay still a lot attention to the breed standard. There are some breeders which have their "own type" and such dogs will have huge problems to get good note from a Czech or Slovakian judge. Best example was the bonitation in Italy this year where the most winning dog (by italian judges) was disqualified during the bonitation and second "beautiful wolfish dog" (these are also words by Italian judges) would get maximum "very good" because of huge faults in movement, type and character.
Also the character test is problematic - you can ask Mijke: if a dog is not really prepared for such test it will have problems to pass it. And it means P14 and disqualification....
So bonitation sounds good but it is better if the owners will see how the bonitation looks like....
