Well, we were supposed to have a 4 day show this weekend, but a really nasty snowstorm blew through early Friday morning, closing all of the roads around here. So I finally got out around 5pm (thankfully as another blew in overnight closing the roads again on Saturday!!!). The show was a good 3 hour drive north east of me, and the weather was great once I got there!!
Anyways, Saturday was the big day. Moxie went best of winners, best puppy and best of breed!!!! Then we had to wait around for group, which ended up being like a 1/2 hour after they said it would be!!! She wasn't really on for group, I had to almost drag her around the ring. Normally she goes in strutting her stuff, but she just wasn't awake. But we then went in for puppy group......and MOXIE GOT BEST OF GROUP PUPPY!!!!! I couldn't believe it!! That was our first group puppy win! And from winning the breed, she picked up 3 points, but only needed 1 anyways to finish her championship!!!
Sunday was an interesting day, as she was very put out having Great Dane's in the ring beside us!!
She got best of breed puppy, so we were back in the ring for group puppy. She was really good again, but for some reason the judge looked at her longer than the other dogs (maybe he was considering her, I don't know). She was standing really well, as I've had problems with her wanting to sit! And she was really good, stood longer than normal, but she just wouldn't do it long enough, and she sat down while the judge was still watching her....hey, thems the breaks!!! lol Monday we came away empty handed, but I had made a pact with Mox that I wouldn't be upset if she didn't do well, coz I wanted to get on the road before rush hour hit Toronto!!!!! lol
I am sooooo proud of my little girl!!
: I don't know where we are heading next....possibly some obedience....not sure, but as long as she is enjoying the show ring, we will keep going!!
Anyways, here is the picture with judge Walter Pinsker of Surrey, B.C.!!!
