    One thing that I have learned in life is to accept that things are not all black or all white. Life is shades of gray and just because someone sees a different shade of gray than you do, it doesn't mean their shade is right or wrong, its just different. ~ Robyn Dubbert

    thank you all! Sunday we did just as well, once again going WD, BOW and Best Puppy in Breed for another point! I was VERY proud of my baby. We decided to stay and try our luck in the puppy hound group. Judge Booxbaum was really considering him for group 4, but Zumi decided he'd had enough and lay down, so the Norwegian Elkhound got it. Al Well, we shall try again at teh next show.

    I got more pictures of him for Sunday, but am waiting to get them loaded.

    not bad for our first weekend out.

    He is a lovely puppy, and you are doing a great job showing him :) My puppy, on the other hand, was being a complete goofball (I guess that is what I get for not training him!!) The judge commented 'he was giving you fits today' ;)

    Congratulations, and it was fun meeting you :)

    @ibi_n_sane: how funny, never heard of that, makes me wonder why they should not need teeth for eating veggies? they need to chew them too right? :confused: yeah…that is a load ;) that would mean that cows, horses, gorillas? wouldn't need teeth... I agree that dogs probably shouldn't be penalized for missing an incisor...but does it lead to missing molars (big problem for crunching bones)...and missing canines (big problem for catching prey)? I don't know, because I haven't run across more than one Basenji that was missing an incisor.

    @tanza: Great video… she looks good and typically "puppy"...gggg One pointer for you, when trying to move her front legs on the table, move from the elbow instead of mid/lower leg... she is less likely to pull it away from you.... Thanks for that! Will try that next time :D And yes the breed ring was tiny, and Maya (when she actually gets going) has such a long stride and trots out quite fast so it wasnt ideal. But better than being out in the rain :) Thanks for all the nice comments.

    I will definately try to get some of Rufus… And hope they are not blurry!! lol Fingers crossed! I guess we will be in the same class as Trish and Dee's Coco, im assuming they will be putting her in the puppy class as well. I think they just want to see them all out there in the ring, they're not overly fussed about littermates clashing :) It must be so odd to have all the pups out at the same time, in my other breeds you get pups coming out all through the year!

    @Janneke: Will you also let them run the next day? I don't know as they have never run before.

    It's a teeny brag, but it's all I have…

    LOL, Bryan. I suppose it comes from all those years of my mom telling me, and me telling my kids, that it's not polite to brag! LOL BUT, I really do have a Wall of Jazz in my family room that has a bulletin board with all her ribbons, and the three show 8x10's next to it. So, maybe that's my subtle way of bragging to everyone that enters the room…?
