After two straight days of OH YEAH results, today was filled with a bunch of coming closes’. In Breed, a good friends dog took breed so we were thrilled for her but bumped to Select with Boomer. Still a point so it’s all good and simply someone...

I love me some awesome food truck vittles. Every show there is some local food truck vendors and I have experienced some fabulous meals. Unfortunately, the truck that was here Friday had basic chicken finger and fries baskets but at $10.00 for the basket and $7.00...

Well, today we didn’t wow the judge but I can tell you that I learned some lessons for sure so this was no waste of a morning. We tried the “feed him first” tactic before we left for the show to see if that might keep him from trying to eat every...

Georgie is become a man, started following our bellybanded Boomer all around the hotel room, lifting along with his buddy. We can’t have that now can we? So it was time for the little man to sport his own belly band. I happened to have a smaller one packed in...

It was quite the amazing day when it comes to Boomer’s Grand Champion title! We needed two more major wins and we also need to start beating some fellow Champions – Three to be exact! In they State and for the limited time he gets in the ring, it’s...

We haven’t even made it to the half of our first show day with the BIS Trolley and I can now also say I don’t know how ever survived without it. Loading up the dogs from the car, lugging our stuff from ring to ring, housing the dogs while we wait for ring...

Georgie was calmer today walking the ring but man was he scavenging the mats for every once of scrap bait! Seriously! It was horrible! So in addition to working on his confidence on the table, it looks like we need to feed him in the morning before a show so he is not...

Back at the hotel room tonight I thought I would take advantage of the new trolley’s grooming table feature. Georgie needs to get custom to bing up high on a table. This trolley is higher than a normal grooming table but the training is no less effective. At...

I have been thinking about getting a Best In Show Trolley for a few years now. Several friends have them, each raving about how they can’t imagine life without it. Pulling the dogs and all of our gear over the terrain at several of the show sites in Florida is a...

Alexis and Boomer had a very good day today! They may have been the only one in Breed today, they looked fabulous and got their Owner-Handler props. They did not hold a Juniors competition today so it made for a long wait this afternoon. We hung around not only for...
