Show Update

Adele refused to move - never having a handling class and maybe being in a fear stage - this is her class I suppose and she will get conditioned. <smile> Not worried about it. She is a structurally sound dog.

Jeannie beat specials with Val showing her. She is now 3 points away from her championship. Val thinks I made her hair too greasy so she is going to keep her and wash her herself. That's one less dog to wash. Plus the socialization will be good for Jeannie.

Cali walked well in the ring but I knew going into it Muntuno if he behaved would win and that he did. Congrats to Muntuno and his mom who never showed a dog in her life. Wow!

There are a lot of Havanese at this show. Thanks goes to Carol, Helen and Suzie who came out to cheer us on.

So all in all it was a great day for Talemaker even with Adele holding out all stops. hahahaha

We do it again tomorrow but today I get to wash Cali and Adele again.

Congratulations to all! Well done. Miss Adele will get there too. Where is the show?

The show is in Brantford. Next weeks show is in Orangeville. I feel for Lucia as this was her first show. Thanks go to Val for finishing Muntuno off for Lucia (grooming wise). Thanks goes to Lucia for persevering and showing our boy well. See, you survived. heh

Deb: Thanks... I actually think Adele is in a fear stage as she started acting silly about things just recently when she hadn't. This too shall pass and the conditioning is good for her. She will get there. :-)

Brantford is quite a ride from Richmond Hill.
Nice that Val could help by finishing Montuno. Congratulations Lucia on your first show.
Good for little Jeannie and Nathan. Val will perform her magic on Jeannie.
Adele is still a very young little lady. Good luck to-morrow to everyone.

Kathy: Val likes to win so I imagine she will go that extra mile. ROFL I heard that Jeannie is telling Jebbie off tonight. Not sure who to feel sorry for. :-)
