Last day


Today…better but still a little frustrating. Lizzie was Best of Opposite in Sweeps, and then RWB. Again. So yes, it’s frustrating for her to have reserves to so many 5-point majors, but I’m at least gratified that she’s recognized for something. She’s also totally naked and was not showing that well today, so I shouldn’t complain too much. :P

Hope everyone else is having a good show weekend. We head home early tomorrow morning, didn’t enter 4 days in a row and after seeing how pooped Lizzie was today, I’m very glad. It is a HUGE show down here and she’s just D-O-N-E. And me too!

edit to add: Yesterday sucked. All-round judge Kilcullen and he did some very odd things. Found the same WB and BOB, but class placements were all over the place and inconsistent. Lizzie was 3rd of 4.

    Hi, My husband and I are the owners of Lola ( aka Telltails Showgirl) We’re totally knocked out that she did so well at Houston.
    We wanted to tell you that Lizzie is Gorgeous, and so are your other dogs, we loved your site. They all have such personality! Just wanted to let you know we were surprised as frickin’ heck that Lola became a finished champion in under 30 days with the wins at the Houston Show, and with gorgeous dogs like Lizzie and your other Allegro’s it’s clear that she had awesome competition. Keep up the great work :)

    I know plenty of people who would have happily taken Lola home (I may have been one of them, but my hubby would kill me! LOL). She’s beautiful and has such a great personality, I know she charmed more than just the judges!

    Congrats on her wins, she deserved them. And thanks for the compliments on Lizzie. :o )

    Sorry I never got around to introducing myself.

    Dissapointing weekend for me too in breed, but a good weekend over at the obedience rings!

    Loved your little Lizzie! And I heard, although I wasn’t entered in breed on Friday, that the judge was rewarding handlers only that day.

    Hope you had a safe trip home.
