He looks like a show dog!

Couldn't resist posting this pic ... ;-)

 

All the loot!  Kitty doesn't seem to be impressed tho.

Cute front!

 

Fast return on the articles

 

I liked the tongue on this one!

And, it's a wrap!

Sketch got insulted in conformation at the specialty itself (fifth out of five in Bred By, two of the others wouldn't stand for the judge...) but the three trailing shows made up for it.  Friday he was RWD to a four point major ...

 

Saturday he was Winners Dog for a three point major ...

 

And Sunday he was Best of Winners for a four point major to finish his Ch!

I am SO glad that is done!  I'll post the official win photos as I get them. 

 

 

More CCRCA

Wednesday was obedience.  Sketcher had WAY too much fun in Utility and finally dropped the bar on the very last exercise; I wouldn't have wanted the score, but it was too bad because he only needed one more UDX leg.

He got it together in Open and won High in Trial tho.

 

There was more loot, which was in the official win photo, a wagon which I gave to Iris and an ice cream maker, which I gave to Leslie and Richard.

WCQ

Yesterday was the first day of the CCRCA National specialty week.  Sketch ran in the WCQ test for the first time and passed!

It was a cold, rainy day so I'm glad he was able to get thru it.

The honor was HARD!  ;-)

 

A good weekend!

We traveled up to Klamath Falls for four trials, and after a shaky start on Thursday, Sketch did very well.  After the dust settled, he had won three classes, two High Combineds, two UDX legs, a High in Trial and a total of 21 OTCh points.

It seems to be our lucky place, as he won two HITs out of Novice there last year!
