We were 3rd in her class of 31 puppies in Sweeps on Thursday.
Today we got a lesson in humility, showing puppies in Bred By, and how dog shows work.
We got walked and did not even make the cut. Yep, it hurt a little. But, no matter WHAT dog you are showing you do not win them all. This is a puppy, showing in Bred By against adult exhibits, and on this day, this particular judge did not use her.
Guaranteed you will be hearing a lot more about this grump in the future. She will have a GREAT career as a Special, and people will remember her for years to come in my breed.
We have had a GREAT week, and so much fun, and the commentary on her by EVERY single respectable breeder, handler, and exhibitor in attendance has been outstanding, without fail.
My many THANKS to those of you who have shared in my joyous experiences with her this week. You will for sure be hearing a lot more about her in the months and years to come.
