We have a new blog! I'm going to try this out and see if I like it or not...I will post upcoming shows we will be attending and the results.
Crash course on showing:
Conformation shows are to evaluate breeding stock and how close the dogs are to AKC's standard for the breed being shown. The goal is to earn enough points to add the "Champion" title in their name. To champion, a dog must aquire 15 total points with 2 majors. A major means that at least 3 points were awarded at one show. The number of points awarded are based on the number of entries at each show. They can earn a max of 5 points at one show. Only 1 male and 1 female of each breed earn points at each show...the Winner's Dog and Winner's Bitch.
WHEW!! Confused? Try figuring out all the point possibilities....we won't even go there!!
Here we are at the show in Eugene, OR. Pebbles came along for support and HotRod came to observe Daisy Duke in the ring and get some pointers.
Today Daisy Duke took 1st place in the Bred-By-Exhibitor's class.
