YODA WINS BIG AT THE TARHEEL CIRCUIT!!!!

Yoda resting up for another big day of showing!

We went to Raleigh, NC for the last two days of the Tarheel circuit.  It was loads of fun...minus the rain the weather was great.

We started Saturday off pretty early with the Border Collies showing.  I thought Henry was going to get Select but at the last minute the judge changed her mind.  Izzy showed well but didn't get anything.  Lots of competitions down there this year in Border Collies and Chris and Leslie were happy to see some nice dogs.

Then Leslie went to goldens and showed a ring side pick up.  Her name is Alibi and I thought she was pretty cute.  She showed well for not showing since 2010.  Seemed like maybe her light bulb was flickering on Sunday and she showed even better!  She didn't get anything but we are proud of how she showed.

Papillons were late on Saturday and didn't show until 2:15.  Remember I told you that you would hear about a new dog.  Well, she is in the ring and did great! Chris showed Ginny and she won 1/WB/BOW for a 3 pt major!!! This give Ginny 12 points with both majors. The big news is Yoda won BOB over the #4 papillon in the US!  The judge had a lot of nice things to say about my brother too which was nice.  He didn't get anything in the group but these were probably the strongest toy groups we have seen for quite some time.

Chris and Leslie kept me up later in the day for a golden only match where they showed Drogba and Sultry.  Both did very well.  Drogba won his class and Sultry was 2nd.

Then came Sunday...we had our show times pretty much crunched together! 

Henry was select for 1 point and Izzy was a little sluggish.

Chris and Leslie quickly moved over to the pap ring where Ginny was RWB to a major.  They were a little bummed as that would have finished Ginny but she needs 3 singles and they feel they can finish her before she goes home!  At least the big major is out of the way.

Yoda did it again!  Winning another large BOB over the #4 papillon in the US.  He gained 38 breed points and 10 GCH points this weekend.  I'm so proud of my brother!

Back to the golden ring they went but no ribbons this weekend.

We got home late but it was for sure worth it!

We will see you guys in the steel city this weekend....look for hopefully more good news!

Point Totals
Izzy 42 GCH points

Henry 46 GCH points

Yoda 74 GCH points

Ginny 12 points with both majors
