Finally, some pictures from the dog show!

This border collie was sitting behind us, waiting for his turn. He had been hit by a car earlier in the year.

A pugliee-

My sweet boy waiting for obedience;

Here we are during the long sit.


He did quite well during the obedience. Most of the points that were docked were "handler mistakes." He was being just a *bit* stubborn when I told him that he had to lay down for 3 min.

Showmanship. Well. Prince was acting very naw-tee, but I blame myself. Once we got into the ring he was fine. I started to stack him and then he decided the he wanted to play. And since mommy has always treated him like a baby, he thought it was alright!

He grabbed the leash & he did not want to let go. Whoa! We actually got a red ribbon. I was surprised.

In Obedience we got a red ribbon also. We were 10 (?) points away from a blue ribbon.

I am still very proud of my boy for even getting this far. I could never wish for a dog that is 'better' than him, because to me, there is none. Whatever color ribbon he gets, I will never love him less or more.


BTW- Guess what we saw there? A spitz pug. Has anyone ever heard of one? The body & tail was like a pug, but the face was different. His ears were erect & his nose stuck out slightly. Very neat looking dog. He was a cutie for sure!
