Jackson TN -- Hub City Cluster







Well we took off from work Wednesday thru Friday this week for the four day AKC dog show held in Jackson Tn. This event is a combined event with both the Jackson Tennessee Dog Fanciers Association and the Clarksville Tn Kennel Club. We camped on site with friends and although it made for a very long weekend, we certainly had fun seeing everybody.



We were showing three dogs this weekend. We showed Mimi, Brooklyn, and Kix. Mimi and Kix had several class wins and Mimi won Reserve Winners Bitch one day, but it was Brooklyn that really shined this weekend. We've been showing her since she was just a very small puppy and although she's shown very well at times, she hadn't won ANY points toward her championship.




The shows were three point majors in both Dogs and Bitches for all four days.




We were very excited Thursday when Brooke not only won Winners Bitch, but also won best of winners and best opposite, winning her very first points and a three point major win to boot. If the weekend would have ended right there, we would have been ecstatic, but Brooke proceeded to win Winners Bitch / Best of Opposite again on Friday and Saturday also. That's three 3 point majors back to back. Brooke went from Zero to Nine points in one weekend. She also won Reserve Winners Bitch on Sunday.



You know we always try to be "gracious loosers" and "humble winners" but every now and again you just have one of those Woo - Hoo moments and this weekend was certainly one of those.



Soooo.... Way to go Brooklyn !!!!!!








WOO HOOO !!!!
