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.
