Earthdog Monday Again!

Earthdog Today!! Pat Rock got into the spirit at the earthdog test she chaired today. Free and I ran in Master and we had a lot of fun. Both of us got to run with one of Sue Ely's Norfolks. They had fun too. The judge said that I had a terrific hunt up.


Here is my friend Jackie running one of her dogs in Senior. It could be Scruffy. He qualified in Master today and was going to run Senior after.


Habi had fun too. She got to run in both Intro and Junior. She was eager to give it a try.

Montgomery Terrier Show

Well I went to the Montgomery Conformation Show. It was boring in the morning. I had to sit and wait at my persons feet for a long long time. Occasionally I would jump up on the lap so that I could look around, but after too short a time I had to get back down on the ground again. Finally I got a chance to show. I did the best I could, but it wasn't enough.

My sister Maggie won Best Veteran Bitch.

We lest before the end, but heard that a Towzie Tyke male won Best of Breed. Congratulations to the Kirns. They are nice and have let me play at their house.

We forgot the camera.

Conformation - Day 2

The weather was beautiful today! Sunny and cool! Here's a picture of Veteran Dog and Veteran Bitch. Jane Worstell's Tanner won Best Veteran.


C.T. Geise (first in line) won Best Junior Handler. Here are four of the five Juniors who competed today.

Then it was time for Best of Breed. I showed the Best that I could. My friend Pam, who calls herself my co-owner, came in the ring with me to coach me and give me treats. The judge liked me enough that I made the cut, but not enough to win.


The Best of Bred-By, Winners Dog, Best of Winners, and Best of Breed was Towzie Tyke Tartan. Here he is with his dam (first dog) and litter sister (last dog). His litter sister won Reserve Winners Bitch.

That night there was an Awards Dinner that I wasn't allow to attend, but other dogs were there. Here is Tasha. She has agility titles, obedience titles, earthdog titles, AND she'd been a therapy dog for years and years and years. She's retired now, but when she was working she also provided disaster recovery therapy for victims of the September 11 attack on the Pentagon. She's pictured with Lisa who helped her with all of her titles and therapy work. She and Lisa and her BT friend Nicky, who is deceased now, were one of the teams awarded the Lucy Award for their help and mentoring of others.

That's a wrap for this specialty, but I'm planning for next year in North Carolina.

I'll continue this blog through the Montgomery Terrier Show that I plan to attend and the Monday earthdog trial in NJ, that I'm really looking forward to, for anyone who is interested in my reports from those events.
