Great Show Day

Mom said I did even better today. There was a cute little Toy Fox Terrier there today.. and she was in the ring with me. She was 8 1/2 months old and was tan and white. She didn't do a very good down and back... and wouldn't stand still on the table. I did a really good down and back...but I did jump up and down... and didn't walk all the way around the ring. Sometimes I just have to RUN!!! Anyway, the judge pointed at me and mom said "good work little one" and we got a bunch of ribbons and got our picture taken with the JUDGE!!! Mom said that we got "ONE POINT". We only need 15 points in AKC to become a champion....and that is what this blog as been about! We got 1st in our class, BEST OF WINNERS and BEST OF BREED.

On the 9th of June we will be traveling to UKC Nationals in Kalamazoo MI. It is a long trip...and I hope to get a few UKC points at the Nationals... that will be really hard because all of the dogs are really older and more experienced. In UKC you need 100 points!! I hope to get at least 40! Mom says we will work hard this week on the table. That is my worst part. (That and running!)

SHOW DAY!!!

I did pretty good on the table!!! I paid attention to mom when we stopped!

Mom got up early and we got ready to go to the show. Her friend Sally met us there so that we could take some pictures of my first time in the ring. I did really well. I had to go into the ring 4 different times during the day, and I did improve every single time. I hope to do well tomorrow.

Today I won First place in my class; Winners Bitch, Best of Breed Puppy and Best of Breed overall. Whoooo HOOOOO!!!

I am really tired and am already for bed. Mom is doing laundry, but she said we had to do toenails tonight....Dang......

May 29th. I am 6 months old today and have been walking well for about 4 days. Mom took me and Bernard to the fun match tonight to practice for the real show tomorrow. I won first place in my class and then went on to win Best of Breed. I didn't place in the group...but Mom was really happy all in all.

Our first training session. Mom and I are working for two minutes at a time, twice a day. I am excited to have the hood off of my head...but I am acting a little crazy in the pack and play so mom took my pink bed out for a while. I just can't help it!! I want to run and play!!

I am feeling well enough to give mom back talk!

Well.... I have a bare leg. I really have a very sore elbow. Mom let me go out on the grass to potty...and it was AWESOME! I started dancing around and mom kept saying "please stop jumping....please stop jumping" Everything itches and I want to lick lick lick. Mom makes me keep the collar on except when I go outside and when I eat. I did walk a little...and mom seems happy with what is happening. I am going to try really hard to get perfect again!! Mom said everyone has been asking about me...and I really appreciate all of your good thoughts. It's just time to get back on my schedule. Mom does lots of different therapies on me. She is a holistic health provider... I have been taking my Vemma everyday!!

I got to go to work with mom this morning so that she could take me to the doctor. I got my hard orange cast off and they just put a pick wrap on my leg. Mom got to see my scar..and she said we have lots of work to do. I only have to be still for three more weeks. I am getting better at just napping and mom is still holding me a whole lot. She trimmed my toe nails last night and I didn't even care!! The cone is making my hair stand up funny...and we don't know what to do about it!
