Nov 17, 2017 | Dog Shows, Owner-Handler, Showing Chihuahuas, Tino, Tipsy
So my second day of the show weekend started on the somewhat stressful side. The Beginner Puppy competition placed Tipsy going into the ring right around the same time Tino would be going into the Breed ring. But of course! Why would this be easy? Emma and Anna...

Being a Thursday, the entries are usually small at midweek dog shows and today was no different. Dolly is here again this week with Issue – and she is a very nice female. The odds of Tino beating her for Breed are rather slim so again, we are here to earn those...

So I will be honest, I feel like I was JUST here – Which I guess technically I was only two days ago. It is nice to be back in the company of great friends for another great dog show weekend but this time it is with ALL of the friends I wished were here last...

Soooooo…..Anyone who knows me knows I will do just about anything for a friend if they ask me to. Even the sketchy stuff! So when I was asked to show two Lakeland Terriers for a very special friend who was unable to I said yes! I even picked them up and kept...

We made it though the second night with two Lakeland Terriers and four Chihuahuas in a hotel room! That is my first very proud announcement! My second is that Mr Tino was less of a pistol today and got Best Opposite Sex today. We didn’t do so well in OH Groups...

My first day in Ocala has been bittersweet. Being without Renée is just not fun. I’ve had Jessica with me all day… A True Blessing… And we have bonded over gummy bears! The addiction to Haribo Gold gummy bears has transferred to Renée and her crew. Jessica...

So the start of the fall dogs show season is upon us and I decided to drive up to Ocala early so I could set up our spot for the next two weeks. I’m so sad Renée can’t be here this weekend… It’s odd being in her spot and setting up without her. But...

It happens every winter here – granted a Florida winter but still. They find the sun spot and covet it. Warmth is their THANG and when they find it they will stay in it for as long as they can. Sometimes I worry that they will bake them selves and overheat. So...

Today was more of the same for us in the Breed Ring – BOS for Mr Tino to Dolly and Issue, an again, we got Owner Handler. The drive home is just too long for me to justify staying we we headed back after Juniors were done. We have decided that I will take Breezy...

South Florida shows are usually small but the was Darius’ club’s show so I decided to end just to show my support. Unfortunately some last-minute plans kept him from being able to actually participate in his club’s show so I decided to get a hotel and stick around to...
