SCV Kennel Club Dog Show in San Jose, CA (Feb. 15-16, 2009)


  • Regarding this event, does anyone know if the basenjis (and their humans) will be around on Monday (2/16)? If so, what is the best time to come by and meet them?

    Also, are non-show dogs allowed to come with us at this event?

    Thanks!

    (P.S. The Santa Clara Fairgrounds website, where it's being held, does not provide any details about this event.)


  • Basenji ring time for Monday is 9:15am, ring 6 in Exposition Hall. So Basenji will be there for showing, but usually are gone when over. At shows, dogs that are not entered are not supposed to be on the show grounds, now usually at an outdoor show, you can get away with it, but this is indoors, so not a good idea to being your Basenji. Also, remember those of us who are showing are trying to get our dogs ready for the ring and sometimes dogs that are not entered can be a big distraction. I will be there, so will lvoss and Vanessa from the forums. Here is a link to the judging program for Monday, dogs will typically only be there for their ring times. http://www.infodog.com/jps/891/jpg891.pdf

  • I really wish this weather would clear up.
    I've been trying to work with Kiya but it just won't let up outside!!!
    Every time I open the door now she gives me this look like "Do I seriously have to mom…its wet out there"
    She will even take such drastic measures as to walk in between my legs to stay under my raincoat!

    Yes, I agree, it is supposed to be really nasty on Sunday.. and Ann has OB with Crystal in the morning… yikes.....


  • Oah No!
    I've been looking at the weather reports as well.
    It's hard enough B's have a mind of their own…now lets stir in some poor weather...this equals a very entertaining day for us :)

    EXACTLY!!!! :o


  • Lucky for you Pat, Sophie really could care less about the weather. Don't know that she will be any less of a handful but it isn't going to cause her to be any more wild. Rio on the other hand hates the cold and wet.

    Hey, one point in my favor….gggg

    Kobey doesn't mind the weather really either, not as much as some others... but still will be glad to be indoors


  • Any results available yet?

    @DebraDownSouth: Oh Pat, for crying out loud, cause I obviously need a combination of more sleep and caffeine I saw UK and thought United Kingdom. My daughter says I don't have to look for a nursing home, they're looking for me some days. :) I'd delete my post but it's pretty funny so I won't. LOL Debra…. take the caffeine! It is pretty funny!!!!!

    I would love to bring Wheat down, but don't think I can make this show. Sigh. Please post the photos and such to this site. If we can't be there, at least we can share it with you!

    It is sad that the numbers have reduced so much. We enter lots of open shows up here in Scotland since there are few Basenji classes anyway here. There are only two Championship shows in Scotland with CCs on offer too. We try to make as many shows south of the border as possible but with fuel costs etc it's just impossible.

    There will be at least four basenjis at Ed Levin Park in Milpitas this Sunday from 11am. My husband and I have two, and a colleague of his has two as well. If any others would care to join us, it would be great to see you! (The park is 3100 Calaveras Rd Milpitas. There is an entrance fee for the park, but I think it's worth it, it's a really nice park, and the off leash dog enclosures are some of the nicest in the area. The dog park itself is a little tricky to find - ask at the booth, or email me if you'd like directions ) Pics to follow!

    Just got back from the Harrisburg show. Willy was only one in his class again and Jasper got Reserve Winner again. NBC was roaming around with a camera crew and came over to interview our little group and asked us about Basenji's. They said the show will air on Thanksgiving day nationally, how much of the interview will make the cut I don't know, but I will certainly watch to see if any of it does.:D
