  • @Nemo:

    For at least the breeders I know locally the timing is bad for puppies. Many of the litters are still too young….including Zoni who will be three days shy of six months. I guess it will be a short day. :(

    It is early this year…..I wonder if some people assumed it would be the following weekend, like I originally did...

    I checked and it IS a major in both dogs and bitches...yeah, we will be back to Toledo before dark, I guess!

  • 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 :)

    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

    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.
