Yes, I am a BAD Momma! It has been months since a Daz update. But she is now 6 mos old and went to her first AKC conformation show today. And she won the breed! She also won Best in Miscellaneous Group, but the Podengos were the ONLY breed in the group today. She did have competition of two males for breed.
Even more important than the fact that she won and got her first point is, she showed wonderfully! *I* didn't turn into a nervous ninny and fall apart, and she appeared to be having fun. I was a little concerned when we first got there, as she appeared to think she couldn't walk on the wet grass. Fortunately, we were there way early to watch a friend show, so she was pretty much over that little idea by the time we were in the ring. We didn't get a show photographer picture, but Pam did take some before we left.
I promise to try to do better about keeping up with her escapades here, but also I DO post updates pretty frequently on Facebook. She has started some training for agility, though not much of what most folks would consider "agility", just foundation stuff to get ready for it. Most of those updates will go on the Podengo Agility blog, but general updates, show ring updates and photos here.
If you haven't kept up with what Daz's brother Vettel has been up to, be sure to check his blog as well!
Wow, she looks so different! What a pretty lady! I must post recent pictures of Vettel - his hair on his head has almost grown out after the vet shaved it.
ReplyDeleteCongratulation on a wonderful first show!

I would love some new photos of Vettel Donna!
