Greater Shelby Kennel Club Dog Show





We attended the Greater Shelby Kennel Club dog show held July 16 and 17th. This one was another show held in Southaven MS, close enough for us to just drive up both days and save on the hotel bills. It was very warm but not as bad as last year's scorcher.



Ok, on to the the results. It was a major in bitches both days so we were excited for Mimi BUT the major broke !!! Mimi only needs one last major to finish her championship and we considered not even taking her to the show, but we decided to show her on Saturday just for giggles. Even though the official major broke, "IF" Mimi were to get winners bitch and go Best of Opposite, then she would still get her major. It was kind of a stretch since she would have to beat a couple of bitch specials to go BOS.



Mimi won Winners Bitch but did not manage to go BOS, so she won two points that she did not need. (Dang) We hated that since she essentially took points away from another dog that might have needed them. Brooke (who could definately use two points) won Reserve Winners Bitch, so we know exactly whose dog that Mimi robbed. (That would be us) Oh, well we essentially shot ourselves in the foot with our own gun. Well you'll never win if you don't roll the dice !!! So the chase continues.


Next stop is Crab Orchard in a couple weeks. See you there. We'll be the ones with the limp.


We didn't show Mimi on Sunday and nobody else did anything on Sunday worth bragging about.
