Yes, I'm still here...just busy busy and not alot of time to blog! Autumn this past weekend competed at the Ontario County dog show, here are a few pics my good buddy Esther took and sent me. I was working so she was out with Peter my handler. My baby on the table.....
I am at a really frustrated point with her and her show career, she has recently competed in 2 weekends of shows (7 shows in total) and didn't pick up ANY points. She really should have picked up some anyway...Not sure why, even Peter doesn't know why. He feels she is nicer than some of the dogs she is up against however she is making her look bad. I watch her move at home and it is certainly not the way she moves in the ring. Some dogs are not show dogs and don't really like it. So this is where we sit, she is on 5 points, has to get 5 more and she is a finished champion. Do I throw in the towel and waste the money I've already spent on show entries and handling fees???? Or do I carry on and risk spending more money with the chance she will not pick up any more points???
Certainly frustrated as I believe and so does he that she is a nice girl and definitely worthy of the title...
We are a family of 5 living in Ontario, Canada. As all of our kids are now teens, there are some interesting moments around here! Our home is a 65 acre hobby farm. Our passion is definitely animals as we have a lot of them! My pride and joy are my Yorkshire Terriers who are bred by me and shown to their Championships. We also have sheep, miniature horses and the newest addition are Myotonic or Fainting Goats. This life we have chosen is a busy one but for the most part filled with satisfaction of living a simple rural life. Enjoy our journey along with us!
