What a weekend!! Ups and downs galore!!! Let's open with The conformation ring. Shadowbar's Slow Hand, AKA MO,owned by Jodi Moodie of Calgary, sailed away with 6 points this weekend with Larry Clark at the helm, ending his weekend with nine points!! Kris-T's the King and I (Brenner) went Best of Breed and Group 1 owner handled by Jeff Popoff. It was exciting to say the least.
In the performance events, Sharlet and Ryder ended the weekend with three High in Class Awards in the Excellent class, three seconds and a third in Advanced and completed their
RA-V title.
Judi and Drummer took two High in Class awards in Advanced and Hunter tied Drummers High Score of 98 but took second in time. Hunter ended the weekend with two seconds and a third place award and a new RA title!
We did trips to the river in between shows and even the fluffy sheltie went in to cool off. The air conditioned motel and refreshments made for perfect evenings as well. The weather was in the 30 degree range the entire weekend.
Buying the trolley at AKC was a wonderful move as it made everything so easy to transport.
We must comment on the wonderful show committee at this show. It is a limited entry and a first class venue. our dogs were in the shade for the entire day. the rings were all visible from the set up. The concession had REAL food!! The best Caesar salads. Boston Pizza, eat your heart out! $6.00! Wonderful sandwiches and juicy burgers, and ice-cream!!
A barbecue and band on Saturday night, too! We were saddened by the fact that there were very few vendors on site. Seems that limited shows mean limited sales as well. Maybe next year.
A reminder that we need members to be at Vista Village at ten in the morning on Tuesday to help us unload and set up for some canine capers. Please take the time to brighten a resident's day.
