2012 Country Music Cluster Dog Show

Well like we mentioned before, We just got up Saturday morning and scurried over to Franklin Tn for the 2012 Country Music Cluster dog show.   It felt funny just driving up, showing,  and driving back home.   It felt like we were forgetting a bunch of stuff.  No suit cases, no hotel,  and no multiple loading and unloading.

 We chose to only show one day out of the four day's.    We thought that judges just weren't right for our type of dogs and the other three days would be a waste of time.    Turns out Saturday's judge looked the other way too.    Oh well.   And that's all I have to say about that.  (Forrest Gump)

We bred one of our Females (Abby) about three weeks ago.    I guess the only exciting aspect of the whole weekend was getting an ultrasound of Abby to see if we were indeed going to have puppies.     We got great news.    On or about April 15 we hope we'll have at least three fat healthy girls.   No we don't know for sure, we're just hoping for girls.    We have enough hard headed boy dogs !

Tupelo Kennel Club -- March 3 - 4 2012

Mimi

We traveled to Tupelo MS on Friday after work straight into the severe thunderstorms and tornados that were going south of us and going to miss us had we stayed home.   I know that's not the smartest thing for us to do but I guess we're that dedicated.    We loaded up Kix, Mimi, Minkle and Duke and headed south.    It was about a two hour trip to the hotel.   We theorized that if we took our time and arrived at 9:30 or 10:00 the storms would have already passed through and we'd be ok.    Turns out we didn't have any problems.  

Ok...    Kix got second in his class both days.    Kix has been sick lately and had to spend three nights at the vets office.     We were just glad he is  feeling better and was able to show this weekend.    We were extreamly worried about him.

Mimi won Select Bitch both Saturday and Sunday and earned four more points toward her Grand Championship !!!    That brings her up to 13 points so far.    She's over half way.  So she's the only one that earns the "three exclamation points"   this time out.   Way to win Mimi !!!

Duke was only entered in the Puppy B Match on Saturday.    He did reasonably well but got second in his puppy class.    He's just here for the practice and he's doing well so far.   Duke will be 6 mos old this weekend, so he'll be able to be entered into the "Real Deal"  very soon.    We're going to sit him out for a while and let him grow some coat and ear fringes before we start showing him in the classes.

See you guys next time ...   Stay tuned.    Next stop is  the Nashville Kennel Club show this weekend in Franklin TN.    We're just going over to show one day on Saturday.  Wish us luck.
