Coppers first points - a Major

  • Copper, Baruh's Batteries Not Needed, had shown a couple of times and was immature, didn't stack well on the table - sometimes gaited, sometimes bounced. Imagine my surprise when we walked into the ring on Saturday and voila - she was a show dog. She bait stacked, she moved out with incredible reach and drive, stood for exam on the table and darn - we got the points as WB. Of course day 2 the judge commented what a cute baby in a baby talk voice and she climbed right up to him cuddling and giving him kisses on his face - so much for show dog but it was funny.

    In the US, for AKC Championship your dog needs a total of 15 points with 2 major wins. Points go from 1 to 5pts, with 3,4 and 5 being considered major point wins. Points are assigned by groups of areas or large states, such as California is one area. Here is a link to AKC with the detailed explanation http://www.akc.org/events/conformation/counting_points.cfm

    @lvoss: Here is Bella's win picture from Pomona. I don't think my dad noticed her accidently cropped out part of her rear. She looks nice - even with part of her missing :D:D! Congrats again!
