We had a great weekend, my puppy dog winning his class everyday and my open dog going reserve only to Lorraine Hayes, not a bad place to be after a 4 point major. My open dog is only just a year and has his majors and hopefully will be finished soon.

That is great Debbie! Congratulations to you and Lorraine.
You both were brave to go out into the cold snap we had this weekend too. It won't be long till your dog is finished.

It is not cold here we had a beautiful day yesterday and today it was a bit rainy but we are used to the rain here. I got to spend a bit of time with Lorraine as we were set up close together, she is truly a very nice lady. She evaluated two of my puppy bitches for me, that was fun just to watch her look them over. She said not to let either of them go. I guess that why I was having a hard time picking just on to keep!!! We will be taking a rest and leaving for Lewiston Idaho on the 19th in hopes of getting my dog Doobie finished.

Congratulations, Lorraine's breeding is tough to beat....so, coming in 2nd to her dogs is as good as win.

Debbie - so glad the weather was warmer for you. It was down to 18 last night. Wow! I just hope it did not ruin all of our spring blossoms. Here it had been so warm and then this cold snap came back to hit us.
And yes - Lorraine is hard to beat. So you were is top company. That was great that she evaluated your pups - great! Good luck on the 19th!

Thanks Ladies.... I think right now I have two very nice boys, young but very nice and I am enjoying showing them. Both judges were watching Doobie and I think they really liked him. Reserve this weekend was a good win. I think Lorraine needs to stay in her own country...just kidding...I will be heading to Canada too , to finish my boys there but I will be checking with Lorraine first to make sure she doesn't have a male entered. I do not mind competition but, Lorraine is a tuff cookie to beat. But she is such a nice lady , and she can really put a dog together.

Lorraine has been at it a lot of years, so she knows her stuff. My dogs have strong Pastoral lines since she and my mentor are great friends and go back alot of years.

Montgomery AL starts on that Friday - 27th.
I am thinking of doing one of them with both Gigi (is Tsa-La-Gi too) and Easy, but not sure which show to go to yet.

Then in May is:
10th - 13th Perry GA - I plan to be here.
19th - 20th - Beaufort SC (outside) and bI just got my premium list for the Oklahoma shows - May 17 - 20th. They will also have the Yorkshire Terrier Oklahoma Speciality show and includes the Central Oklahoma Toy Dog Show. Too far for me though.

These are all AKC shows.

Let me know if you are going to Beaufort. I would like to meet you and your Tsa La Gi girl.

Do you ever go to Asheville, NC in June. Great little show. Not too far from GA.

Are you doing Perry this weekend?

Stop wishing and DO IT! With all the great breeders and experience here, you should have a show prospect and a mentor in no time.

It is so much fun. I promise you will be hooked.

It is an outdoor show, which I love.
Will be in touch. Also... BIG CONGRATS on Connor! and best wishes with your upcoming litter.
I'm sure we'll be seeing one another over the coming months, no doubt! Take care!

Joyce Lea Hanson is judging Chesterfield. This is the judge that put Conner up over all our champions the day I showed him in New Kent.

She is a precious lady. She is originally from Yorkshire, England. She has been breeding and showing for 50 years. She owns Nic Nak High Caliber. He spent several years on the AKC top 10. She is also an AKC judge.

The fact that she liked Conner enough to give him such a nice win says a lot about his quality. Of course, we already knew that.

I am torn between Chesapeake and Lake Waccamaw. VA Beach KC or Myrtle Beach Kennel Club - what a choice!

Tami. Robbie let me know if you are doing Chesapeake and I will too. If not, I will go to Lake Waccamaw.

L - I did not go to Ashville last June. I might this year. Hmmm.. somehow I do not have this one written down. Well, I just have to see since I may go to Florida that month. I may go to Beaufort though in May and would love to meet you and your babies.

I am not going to Perry this weekend - since they are only having Specialities for Sunday and yorkies are not included. I hate to travel all that way for one day of showing. So I will stay home and just practice with the girls. Perry does have a full weekend show on May 11th - 13th. I do plan to go on the 12th and 13th. Perry is nice since they divide up the groups into the different areas and not as bad of an echo. Plenty of camping spaces too. Loved it last year, even though it rained!

Levi is now ready to take on the world. We worked extra hard over the holiday, and have a whole week of no school for Ashley this week which she and I will be working together with him every day... YOU let me know where you are planning to go...I called you tonight so tell Marty to check those voice mails. You'll hear the famous cheerleader..hee hee. I have to say that I've never worn myself down so much in my entire life with the combined work of growing/grooming a coat and training from a pup on a lead and free stacking. I am going to be ready for a vacation with no animals in sight, massage parlor and margaritas on the beach after this is all said and done! Whew!

Hats off!

Congratulations, DebbieRay. Do you ever show in Seattle (believe it is in March)?

dray · 04-09-2007, 07:25 AM

Yes I do go to the Seattle shows and it is soon going to be a lot easier for me as my Daughter is moving there at the end of this month so I will have a place to stay and a great helper for the shows. We haven't been to a dog show together in about 15 years, it will be so much fun. Maybe we will see you there.
