And clearly we were missed! Alexis and I always loose a few hours of sleep when we travel for dog shows but this weekend it was quite a bit. Like a night’s worth. So when I walked in on a very fast asleep Alexis with a bunch of dogs napping on her I knew we were...

Our gimme Breed today also came with a chance to walk the Toy Group as well as the Owner-handler rings. With Georgie being so young and gangly, I didn’t think it would be a good idea to take those trips. Yu gotta love friends that point out the obvious....

So THIS is what happens when you spend the weekend playing in the dirt at the St. Johns County Fairgrounds in Elton, Florida. Very reminiscent of my childhood playing in the dirt in elementary school. Lots of dusty, dirty fun!

With the exact same ring times as yesterday and everyone agreeing to bumping the Pugs to the end, I had no idea that yesterday would be a complete repeat. Starting in Juniors, 13 kids this time, no Team Figgy love but I bursted with pride in how she congratulated...

Holy Cow Wow! Boomer and Alexis weren’t the only ones that had an awesome day in the ring today. It all started with Georgie! He got his second point today by getting Winner’s Dog! It was so exciting – only two majors and and potentially five points...

With such early ring times (8:00 am to be exact) wen you have to stick around for Groups it can make for a very long day. We were going to run back to the hotel but there was a two hour wait for win photos (with every second of course) so we stayed at the show site...

With 12 kids in Juniors, it was a tough trip around that ring but filled with amazing sportsmanship. I was so proud of Alexis for graciously congratulating all of those that did place. But for the first time, the show’s ring conflict was saved by the Pug peeps...
