Burrito was Best of Breed Thursday and Friday at the Walla Walla Kennel Club shows at the Tri-Cities Cluster.   In this picture he is sitting on the grooming table waiting to go to the show ring.It was a very busy 4 day show in the Tri-Cities.  Fiona is shown here waiting to go to the show ring–Sheri came to town and showed Fiona–on Saturday Fiona was Best of Breed and completed her Grand Championship (pending AKC approval).  In addition to the conformation ring Fiona ran 5 Fast Cat trials and is rapidly closing in on getting her DCat (just a couple more runs!).  Fun 4 days!

The puppies from Gloria’s last litter are now nine months old.

Kevin, formerly known as Lucky #7, is on the right. He is sitting beside Auntie Violet with Grandma Flo-Jo looking on. All are interested in the carrots they are about to receive

This is Kevin’s sister, Vera. She looks much more “chill” in this picture than she is in real life.

The Absolutely group had a very fun weekend in Kennewick WA at the Tri-Cities dog show.  Grooming and showing were all done outdoors.  We managed with 3 “tents” and a motor home.  We had wind, we had cold weather, we had sunshine, we had rain, we had more wind.

 It was a busy weekend, as there were 5 FastCat runs and 4 conformation shows.

This is part of our set up. Sheri is grooming Fiona, while Burrito looks on.

11 of “our” dogs participated and had great success.  Vera is not so sure she loves the conformation ring.  Her happy place is playing with her buddies.  

Junebug ran FastCat and earned her second title in that event. She also participated in conformation shows and was awarded Select two days.
