@cashh - Just curious, did you have your dog excused? Typically it is because of being lame in the ring or not letting the judge to exam the dog?
1st Show for Jaycee
-
@Rita:
I got the one in mail not sure about what your talking about need help. Just go to the dog show and look it up?
Rita Jean
They sell catalogs at the show that has all the dogs entered by breed, with names, age, sire/dam, owners, by breed with what class they are entered in and the armband number. Then you know who people are and who their dogs are at the show. You can start to put names with faces and dogs….
And yes, the results will be posted on line after the show is complete

Rita Jean, we are just 45 min. from Lawrence. We are also HUGE KU fans. My brother lives in Shawnee and has a basenji pup. Where was the show and I would really be interested to know the web site to see where the basenjis live and come from. Thanks in advance for the info!
Congrats on the great day. WE cannot show our BRAT boys but I think it would be really really interesting to go to a show and just watch. Thanks again. -
Not Rita Jean, but the website is www.onofrio.com then go to show information and then show results. The results are usually posted 2 days following the show.
-
Thank you! I will enjoy checking this out!

jonny b. there is show comming up in Joplin, Mo and Springfield, Mo I looked at past B's for Joplin in 2008 -32, 2007 - 32 and 2006 there were 55. Springfield, Mo 2008 - 10, 2007 -7 and 2006 there were 14 Joplin is 10.31.09 nice way to spend the day.
Pat we did not get the catalog we were going to but I forgot it on way out I was not sure if that was what you were talking about. Jaycee was tried and cold going to take her coat next time.

What you got in the mail is the "judging program", it is usually available online before you get it in the mail, and even earlier (a few days after closing) you can usually get the breed counts. I thought maybe the Indian Nations Specialty coming up would be close to you, but it looks like it's quite a drive since it's in Tulsa…and it's on a Friday...and the day before Halloween.
Once you find out who some of the people showing in the area are, it's likely that they may coordinate which shows they go to. If you can get on an email list, it will make it much more simple to figure out which shows to go to.

We were going to try to stay in kind of area. St.Louis, Des Moines, Joplin, Springfield, few in Arkansas might go as far as Little Rock since that is were my mother-in-law lives. Tulsa not bad if on a Saturday I have family in Okla. I wish Texas and Ala was not so far we have family in both those states.

Hey Rita Jean…go check out the Onofrio site, the results are up.
An interesting tidbit that I saw from that show - the Welsh Springer that went Group Four in the Sporting Breeds is co-owned by country singers Vince Gill & Amy Grant.
-
I was on there and looked at results but I did not see the owner of Welsh Springer. I sure did not hear any music just joking. I am sure they more than likely did not even show the dog themselves. Thank you for telling me that would have been nice to hear some music I would have loved that.

That was a nice entry of Basenjis… I see that Linda Ehlers was there (kennel name Jerlin) and she has been in the breed for years and years and has some really, really nice Basenjis and she is very nice too!... And it was a big entry, since there were major points....
-
I think I will see a few of those people in Springfield this weekend (it's a 4 point major!). I've never tried the amateur-owner handler class before, they don't seem to offer it everywhere. But, I guess it's probably a good one to get yourself in the winners ring because not many other people are probably using.
-
The AKC lady told us was a good thing that we had entered Jaycee in amateur beacuse she was in season Eli could not have showed her as a junior handler. Since Eli and Jaycee had 1/2 hour of class to learn how to show and act and so on amateur he and Jaycee were. Comming into season could not have been timed any worse. The AKC lady told us she would have Eli stay in amateur for now.

This is the first year that it is offered, it replaced on of the other classes that used to be offered. But it is no mandatory to be offered. I think it is a great class for owner handled dogs to use

It was really good for Eli since he really was amateur. I do not think he was treated any different then the rest I just think it helped if he really would have messed up. Like when he and Jaycee were going around in ring she stopped to pee and Eli saying come on we have to go.
One of the lady's there told us a story few weeks ago her dog took a poop in the house and she said he knew better so he got into trouble for it. Next week they went to dog show and the dog in front of them stopped in ring took a poop. She said her dog looked at that like o no not that again I did not do it she had to pull him around it to get him to going.

Most important thing is that you get them to "potty" before the ring time… sometimes they can fool you, but especially with a bitch in season around all those males, they will pee more and have the need to pee more....
-
Thank you Pat we had walked her many times but it must not have been enough at least it was not poop thank goodness. I have never been around a breed of dogs that most if not all females of that breed were in season at same time.

Yes, makes it quite an "impossible" situation… especially for the males...
