  • Congratulations!

  • Congrats and what great pics! Very handsome boy! :)

  • thank you all! Sunday we did just as well, once again going WD, BOW and Best Puppy in Breed for another point! I was VERY proud of my baby. We decided to stay and try our luck in the puppy hound group. Judge Booxbaum was really considering him for group 4, but Zumi decided he'd had enough and lay down, so the Norwegian Elkhound got it. Al Well, we shall try again at teh next show.

    I got more pictures of him for Sunday, but am waiting to get them loaded.

    not bad for our first weekend out.

    He is a lovely puppy, and you are doing a great job showing him :) My puppy, on the other hand, was being a complete goofball (I guess that is what I get for not training him!!) The judge commented 'he was giving you fits today' ;)

    Congratulations, and it was fun meeting you :)

  • Congrats! You have a beautiful little guy!

    In the US, for AKC Championship your dog needs a total of 15 points with 2 major wins. Points go from 1 to 5pts, with 3,4 and 5 being considered major point wins. Points are assigned by groups of areas or large states, such as California is one area. Here is a link to AKC with the detailed explanation http://www.akc.org/events/conformation/counting_points.cfm

    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.
