Coppers first points - a Major

  • Copper, Baruh's Batteries Not Needed, had shown a couple of times and was immature, didn't stack well on the table - sometimes gaited, sometimes bounced. Imagine my surprise when we walked into the ring on Saturday and voila - she was a show dog. She bait stacked, she moved out with incredible reach and drive, stood for exam on the table and darn - we got the points as WB. Of course day 2 the judge commented what a cute baby in a baby talk voice and she climbed right up to him cuddling and giving him kisses on his face - so much for show dog but it was funny.

    @agilebasenji: all i can think of is "hungry, hungry hippo" anyway, congrats on his first point. did you get a pic? We sing that to him a lot ;) We also call him "Hippo-Dippo" which seems to fit ;) I did get a pic, and hopefully it will be good enough to post :)

    And if you ever get a second place in your class hang around. You may have to go back in to compete for reserve Winners. It took me a while to remember that one when I first started showing.

    I can't take animals on the kitchen counters, so I used to have Jazzy "practice" on the coffee table. Now she will work anywhere. Her "code word" from me is "Hold", and she'll hold a pretty stand. I guess I should ask what Bryan tells her in the ring, LOL, for some consistency.
