Snowy's day out at the dog show *PICS*

We went to a dog show today, not really a proper one - it's open to all breed. Snowy did me proud, she showed herself beautifully. She stood nicely and also walked to heel which was a major improvement to her first show but unfortunately that wasn't enough to impress the judge, she didn't win any rosette.

I didn't think the judge was fair but ofcourse I would say that, wouldn't I? :D but serriously I wasn't impressed when the judge had to ask a handler what breed her rough collie was. If she didn't even know the breed how would she know the standard? :p

Anyway here are some pictures from the show:

this is the waggiest tail competition.
Snowy stood beside her friend Daisy.
Neither Snowy nor Daisy wagged their tails :D

so many young handlers - they were really good.

George the black labrador is another friend of Snowy.
He was 2nd most handsome dog
but I think he should be the first.

More pictures on the next post...

William

I really enjoyed the pictures. My favorite would have to be the three terriers. The are all so adorable.

Love the picture of the 3 terriers!!!! So cute!

Awww, Snowy!!! What a fun day you had! LOVED the pictures, William!!! OH, what precious puppers ALL...and handlers, "junior" and otherwise!;) The participants are all beautiful...have to admit, George is quiet the handsome Labbie boy!:D

And please know that your cousins across the pond all, send our love and prayers to you during this difficult time. Our sympathies to those lost in the recent bombings:( We are with you, friend. Be safe.

Sandra

Snowy is certainly turning out to be a shining star at these shows, rosette or no rosette. I love how she is looking up at you in the one picture...waiting for further instructions perhaps.

And I would like to express the same thought that Sandra has indicated. Our hearts are deeply saddened by the senseless loss of life of your fellow citizens of the United Kingdom as well as the feelings of loss of security and safety which ripples out to all corners of the earth.

Loved the pictures. Snowy looks like she is doing really well at showing. Looks like it was a fun day for everyone.

I have to agree with you, the judge made an error. Snowy looks absolutely gorgeous - you must be so proud of her! Fun to see the pictures of her friends and sister, too. Keep on showing!
*We're praying for all the familys affected by the bombings, such a sad event*

thank you for the comments on the pictures

and about the london bombing, it has been a great tragedy where innocent lives were taken away, thank you for your symphaty at this tragic time.

Looks like the dogs behaved well. I hope you had fun, too. I can't believe that judge didn't know all the breeds. I don't think they should have been allowed to be a judge.

Well done William and dear little Snowy :). I love the photo of the 3 terriers how cute.

Thankyou for sharing your day out with us :).
