thanks for your beams too!!

sbctwin: you know...i'm not sure. i saw cameras.
there will be a photo of us with the judge and our ribbon though...i'll share it when the photographer sends it to me.

there are dog shows almost every weekend in every state in the country...although summer has the most. its fun to go watch, especially the obedience trials and the rally and agility trials too.

the dogs competing in what most people call "beauty contests" are not being judged on superficials either...most important is that they have the proper structure and temperment to do the job for which they were bred. It is not easy to earn a championship title on a dog....(which is why it BURNS me to read smarmy classifieds in the local paper offering "championship puppies" because it is a misuse of the term...no such thing as a championship puppy. Good puppies can have parents who are champions.)
