How could you not give BOB to this face!


So this weekend was the Canby dog show. It had one of the hugest mini bull entries that we have had in a long time. There were 14 other dogs. But myself and my friend Jackie have been nervous about this show for a while now. Some how we both knew that when it counted the most, we wouldn't end up taking Best of Breed (BOB). And we were right. On saturday Stitch had it, the judge loved him, but then he went and acted like a butt head at the very end, and so the judge gave it to a different dog. And Sunday the judge liked him very much, but wasn't so sure about giving it to him because he didn't win the day before. Instead she gave it to the nice 6-9 month puppy who took winners dog. (meaning he beat all the other non champion dogs who competed)

But despite our loss, we had a good time getting to see all the other bully owners that I have become friends with, and getting to see the Stitch puppies that were there. I really would have loved to steal one and put it in my coat and bring them home. They are so cute at 7 weeks. They fit in the palm of your hands! And the one was red and white like stitch and looked a lot like him. It was so much fun!

In Aussie news, Tiki showed fairly well for being a puppy. He won his class each day, but he was the only dog, but he didn't win anything other than that. It is ok though, he showed well, and the judges did think he was nice, just needs to mature. Which is true. However Roca, our friend Letty's little girl Jackie is showing, did awesome. She took reserve winners bitch (2nd for the non-champion bitches) on Satuday and Winners bitch, best of opposite sex and best of winners on Sunday! And she is only 8 months! She is a little rock star and we love having her around and having Letty as our friend. Her husband Marty took the pictures that are on here.

So now we shake off the loss and do our best at the next show in Redmond, Or. This show I am looking forward to more. There will be some other dogs and it is gonna end up as a mini vacation. So wish us all luck! We could use it to reach our goal for Westminister next year!
