Thanks everyone!!
Well, it was an exhausting weekend. 12 hours in the car in all (thank goodness Maya travels so well!!!) and it was rather wet and muddy yesterday. Maya, as i expected, didnt get anything. The other two were much older than her lol!! But it was such an honour to be able to go back and represent the breed on the final day, and if i may say so, i think Maya did a fine job of it! Obviously, after only 6 weeks of showing it was going to be a bit overwhelming for her. It was held in the Best in Show ring just before the final days Group judging and Best in Show judging so there was a big crowd of people about 2 or 3 rows deep all around the ring which was rather daunting for me, never mind Maya! Each of the three days winners went in and did a lap of the ring as they were being announced while there was a LOT of clapping (very very loud in the middle of the ring lol) so i thought that might make Maya go into panic mode, but i was so proud that all she did was break into "canter" for about two strides, then settled back into a beautiful trot! She really did show well. She was rather interested in all the people around the ring watching her (little show off!!) so didnt stand as nicely as usual as she kept looking around. But all things considered i think she did really well!! Im certainly very proud of her and it was worth the 6 hour round trip yesterday to get her in the big ring and see how she handled it! I think she handled it as well as any other 7 month old puppy would
