Texarkana Kennel Club Show

Reading these posts just tickles me pink. It is so much fun to see the dog shows through someone else's eyes. After so many years....and SO MANY shows, I forget to stop and see it from different points of view. If you just say any date in the year, I will tell you what dog show it is...pretty bad.:wink2:

And you are just the BEST person -- with Megan -- to see a show with!!! :winkgrin:
 
I am awaiting permission to upload pictures of some of the other shelties (and acd and coonhound) onto my website. I don't want to make anybody mad by using their pictures without permission...even though I took the pictures. :lol: I have some good shots of Janita Jaster's sheltie, Storm (Rosestone's The Tempest) doing obedience and Deidra's sheltie, Summer (Rosestone's Texas Heat) in the ring.

I left a little early today. The sheltie showed at 1, and as soon as they were done I left. I didn't want to be caught in the crowd of vendors, handlers/breeders, ect. I didn't want to have a lot of trouble getting out. They had already started to dismantle some of the rings and wind things down by that time anyway.

Shaine got first place in Open Sables (Jennifer's dog), second place in something else (not sure what!), Jennifer's mom, Deidra, got 3rd place in Bred By, Terry's coonhound Loretta got Best of Opposite (and something else, but I don't know what), I think Erin got Winner's Dog, and Janita won several things, but I have no clue what they were. Janita's dog, Storm, is one of the nicest looking shelties I have ever seen. He's so small, fluffy, and cute! I hope she tells me I can share the pictures. I really like Shaine a lot too, though. The results from today's show were more or less the same as yesterday.

I finally found the food vendor today. :lol: Jennifer showed me where it was at, and I had chicken strips and watched the pomeranians. :biggrin2:

She also showed me where the Plush Puppy vendor was. For there not to be a lot of vendors I sure did buy a lot. I went ahead and got the Primrose Plush Puppy Shampoo like I always use. Might as well save on shipping!


I sure had fun at this dog show, but I think it would be more fun if I was in the obedience ring. :yes:
 
You'll be in the ring soon, Jessica. Keep working! It sounds like a great time at the show, and short of having a dog there, aren't the vendors fun? I always amuse myself (and my credit cards) at those.

Sounds like a great weekend for Jennifer and Shaine! Congratulations to them! Can't wait to see the photos. :smile2:

I can use Jennifer's, but I just wanted permission to use some of the other shelties from the other people. I wouldn't like it if somebody took pictures of Smuff and posted them without asking me, ya know? :yes:

It was a lot of fun, and work permitting, I would like to attend another one real soon. I already tried out my new grooming spray on Fluffy.

I think she is mad at me. :biggrin2::eek2:
 
Ohhhh noooo thats the first sign....you've been bitten by the show bug....Quick get intervention!!!!! You'll be sucked in before you know it

I think it might be too late. I've been sitting in the living room thinking about how tomorrow is going to suck since it is over. :biggrin2: The bad thing is at work I have to give a one month notice before taking days off with pay. I knew this show was coming up since last year. I had wanted to do to the same show last year, but I didn't get to ask off for it in time. Now I'm trying to figure out when meet the breeds/responsible dog ownership day is. I could have went to that last year, but it was raining.


There was almost every dog you could imagine there. I noticed that a lot of the same people handled other peoples dogs. Jennifer didn't handle her dog because she is pregnant and didn't want to buy new clothes. :lol: So Erin showed Shaine. Jennifer had to go hide in the bleachers so Shaine would act right.

I'm hoping in the next couple of days I get a yes or no answer from some people about whether I can post their pictures on my site. I'm going to guess there are about 150 pictures at least. There's a lot.

You want to know what makes me so mad? I forgot to get a picture of the vendors! I wanted a picture of the Pet Deli. My Mom would have gotten a kick out of it. :sadsmile:
 
Permission to upload pictures has been granted! I can put them on my facebook page and on my shutterfly page. :biggrin2: There are so many so it will take a good while for me to upload them. I will post a link when I am done so everybody can see.
