A little show brag

    I haven't been able to enter too many shows in the past few years so when I bit the bullet and entered a local 4 day cluster of shows, the butterflies started swarming. Amazingly, once I stepped foot into the ring Thursday, everything sort of just fell into place. This was an outdoor show and it was windy, cold, and damp but Bindi showed very well all 4 days. She went Winner's Bitch and Best of Winner's Friday and Saturday and got 2 points closer to her championship! I am so proud of her! Now it seems I have been bitten by the show bug and I can't wait for the spring shows to get here so I can compete with her again!

    Kudos to Bindi's personal fan club Nicky and Liz (Mauigirl), Carrie (Andrew), and my best friends Steph and Chris for coming by to cheer her on!

    PS Bindi loves her new coat from Carrie and Nicky! Thanks guys!

    One thing that I have learned in life is to accept that things are not all black or all white. Life is shades of gray and just because someone sees a different shade of gray than you do, it doesn't mean their shade is right or wrong, its just different. ~ Robyn Dubbert

    Congratulations to all of the dogs and your daughters, sounds like they had a wonderful time. Good size entries too! My Rufus was a little 'B' when he was in puppy (still can be if he feels like it) we entertained everybody with his antics, it does get better!

    re: "A sanctioned match is important though, I believe new clubs must hold a certain amount of matches in a certain time frame before they're allowed to hold regular dog shows. Sorta like a trial run to make sure the club can do everything needed to run the event and take care of paperwork appropriately. Also already established clubs will hold matches in the evening after the show, and I have a feeling they are a good money maker for the club since they already have all the equipment and everything taken care of for the weekend." This is partly true - a club however in order to maintain it's status as a show giving club has to complete a certain number of components in a given year - a match can be one of them. Do some do it for money - maybe - but I'll tell you from experience that at the end of a show - about the last thing a show giving club is thinking about it's doing more work! we're typically too tired!!!!! In any event a match is good practice for the dogs, the judges and a great way to get your feet wet. You will have a blast.
