Eli's First Show

Basenji Showing
  • I just got the call that little Eli took Winner's Dog and Best of Opposite Sex down in Louisiana this morning! Hopefully we'll have pictures soon to post.

    His handler (my ex-husband) texted me yesterday to say that Eli took Reserve…..sounds great until you know that only one other dog was entered LOL....guess he was trying to break it to me gently. They said the Open Dog was very nice, so Congrats if he belongs to anyone on here. Friday and Saturday there weren't any other dogs entered. All in all, they said he did really well for his first set of shows. He wasn't a bit scared or upset and he apparently made lots of new friends and showed very well.

    I have to admit that although I'm really excited he did well, I'm just a little disappointed that I didn't get to see him get his first point. ;) I'm glad he had a good weekend but I sure miss my boy and will be happy when he gets home tomorrow!

  • Congrats.. that is great!

    @ibi_n_sane: how funny, never heard of that, makes me wonder why they should not need teeth for eating veggies? they need to chew them too right? :confused: yeah…that is a load ;) that would mean that cows, horses, gorillas? wouldn't need teeth... I agree that dogs probably shouldn't be penalized for missing an incisor...but does it lead to missing molars (big problem for crunching bones)...and missing canines (big problem for catching prey)? I don't know, because I haven't run across more than one Basenji that was missing an incisor.

    I will definately try to get some of Rufus… And hope they are not blurry!! lol Fingers crossed! I guess we will be in the same class as Trish and Dee's Coco, im assuming they will be putting her in the puppy class as well. I think they just want to see them all out there in the ring, they're not overly fussed about littermates clashing :) It must be so odd to have all the pups out at the same time, in my other breeds you get pups coming out all through the year!

    @Janneke: Will you also let them run the next day? I don't know as they have never run before.
