Chance Had His First Dog Show

Basenji Showing
  • Well were finally home from Dixon. Chance is sleeping…ahhh how nice it is to have some relaxation time :o
    Saturday Chance got 2nd place and Reserve. :D Donna his handler got him to do it!
    Sunday...well that was another story...:rolleyes: Not so good. Chance decided it was much more intertaining to try to play with the other boys in the ring. When it was his turn, he dug his hind feet in the ground and would leap and choke himself. Totally embarassing! The judge sure was not impressed :eek: Donna had to take him out of the rink before he would of been asked to leave.
    As of now...well it was our first show and I am happy with 2nd place but we are now going to check out some obedience and confirmation classes :)
    Thank you Pat, Lisa, Ann and everyone else who was at the show. We really had a great time despite the hot/windy days up in Dixon. Were looking forward to another show.

  • Congrats to you both…...Go Chance!:)

  • It was great to see you and Chance… and silly baby puppies can be a "pain" sometimes in the ring.. we have all been there done that...gggg

  • YAY Chance!! Sounds like little Chance had a good time despite the judge's opinions :p And in the end isn't that all that matters :D :D

    @lvoss: If you can find a copy, I would recommend trying to get a hold of a copy of the Basenji Stacked and Moving by Robert Cole. They are no longer in print and can get quite expensive but every so often you can luck upon a copy that is reasonably priced. Here is an online copy: http://www.basenjiclubofcanada.com/BCOC-BobCole.html

    Thank you everyone! Ill look at the book, try to get it. I also took a look at the site. Seems like it will help alots. Thank you ill keep that in mind. Ill have friends and family come over while im working with her and express their opinions of her. I will also keep in touch with my breeder. She doesnt do shows anymore but im sure she can offer up a little information…what is IMO? idk why but i never understood that. lol The show is actually in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. It is given off the the Sioux Empire Kennel Club. Ill be working with her non stop until we go to that show. I figured well just see how she does and go from there. She may be good or she may just be pet material. Id like to try either way :)
