    One of the semi local (ok 115 miles each way) UKC clubs was holding a show, since my niece has wanted to show my dogs and she is only 7 we figured this would be a great start for her! So the most trained will do what ever you say dog we have is mr Noah!! Since he was there for her to show, I figured minds well just enter him in the regular classes. Well Jenna got 1st in Sub-junior and a big blue ribbon for each show so she was beyond delighted!! And Noah in the classes got BOB and went on to win group 2 for both shows!!!!! I was told he is up to 50pts, not that I could figure it out if my life depended on it, but It was a really fun day(except for the flooding rains), and a laid back atmosphere, granted it took a bit to get accustomed to not doing the full grooming with product as the UKC does not allow product, and they check!!!!!!

    I have a few pics, well my mom was in charge of taking the photos since I was showing, and being the official Noah picker up for the table!!

    Here is my niece handling Noah

    Congratulations! That puts you at half way to his UKC CH. You will need 50 more points and 1 more class win with competition.
    I think the UKC shows are a lot of fun. They are so much more laid back, and are a very friendly venue. I was at one today as well helping to show my friends dog, and socializing my puppy :)

    Congratulations, Linda! :biggrin2: Your niece is darling and you and Mr. Noah look terrific...who knew they could look so good without product?! What a concept! Seriously, I wish we had more UKC shows around here. I'd be there in a minute. I find the whole AKC points/majors/minors/can/can't-show thing ridiculous.

    I'll bet you can put that UKC championship on Noah in no time at all! :yes:

    What fun for your niece! You must be very proud. :biggrin2:

    Nice work on Noah, too - he obviously blew the competition away! Nice work. BTW, in one of his pictures, it looks like his right rear leg has been scissored! Is that just the light, or did the poor guy blow a ton of coat?
