Two long distance dog show weekends in a row. We're all exhausted and looking for some well deserved time off !!!Laura and I traveled back to Missouri this weekend to the Ozark Kennel Club dog show. The show this year turned out to be Majors in both Dogs and Bitches both Saturday and Sunday. This was great since Cruiser only needs one more Major to finish his championship. And both of our Girls could use a major win also. Mimi is getting very close to being pointed out and we don't want to be chasing "two" majors for her. Brook just needs points of any kind right now.
Ok, Cruiser showed well both days but didn't get winners Saturday or Sunday, so the major chase continues.
Brook showed very well both days. She needs to settle down a little more ... (OK a lot more). She's still a wild little puppy. She even got away from Laura while showing in the ring Sunday and ran out of the show ring (yikes) !!! I just saw Laura running after a flash of black and white fur. I thought that Laura was going to have a heart attack. It's a thousand wonders that she caught Brook. Her favorite game is "catch me if you can". Some lady outside the ring stepped on the lead that she was dragging and Laura was able to return her to the ring.
Mimi didn't win anything Saturday, but won "Winners Bitch" Sunday for a four point Major !!!
And won "Best Opposite" also. So, Mimi now has one of her two required Majors in the bag. She now has 10 points toward her championship. Cruiser better watch out or little sister is going to pass him and finish before he does and he'll just be eating her dust.
We're going to take a winter break from dog showing. Thanksgiving and Christmas is just around the corner. We'll enjoy that and start back full blast shortly after the first of the year.
