Winston Salem, NC

Peggy & Leslie took us to NC this past weekend.

 

Waiting to go show!

Peggy finished Sis's GCH on Saturday with her 4th major.  Good going Peggy!  We also got to meet Ellie Mae for the first time and she is a doll. 

On Saturday we picked up a few ribbons but nothing great.

Sunday was much better.  Leslie helped Amy Wall win the breed from the classes with one of her labs.

Target was awarded WB/BOS for a point and Henry the golden was RWD under breeder judge Carl Liepmann.

Clermont County

We took a short drive to Clermont County in Ohio with just a couple dogs. 

On Saturday we got to sleep in and relax before starting to show in the afternoon.

Jazzy (lab) 1st
Oilver (golden) BOB

Later that evening in the match Sammy took a spin around the ring for the first time and was 2nd.  Look for him to make a couple more appearances in the next month or so.

On Sunday we started way too early at 8AM.  It was cool and the grass was still wet.

Jazzy (lab) 1st
Bo (golden) 2nd
Oilver (golden) BOB

We are very excited about how well Oilver has been doing the past 3 weeks in a short matter of time he now needs 1pt to finish his GCH.  We sure hope he is done by the end of September...wouldn't that be a nice birthday present for Leslie?!??!

We will be at home resting this weekend but will be back in action soon!

Labor day in Lexington, KY!

Supported entry Judge: Barbara Pepper

We enjoyed the heat and rain for labor day in Lexington, Ky this year.  We were happy to be inside showing so we didn't get wet and could stay cool.

We showed for 3 days and were very tired afterwards.

Saturday started with a bang with Henry the border collie winning a very nice BOB.
Faith (springer) showed great but didn't recieve anything at the supported entry.
Then much later in the day we moved to the golden retriever supported entry.  Target was awarded a very nice RWB and Oilver picked up an amazing 5GCH winning an awesome BOB over some top ranked specials!  Thank you breeder judge Barbara Pepper!

Sunday everyone showed great and Henry the border collie was awarded a nice select.

Monday we were all getting slower as the days went.  Faith and Henry were awarded selects.

Thank you Shawna Wells for the photos.

We are headed to Clermont County in Ohio this weekend.  It has been quite a few years since we have been to this show. We hope the weather is perfect for this trip!

We will check back with you to let you know how September continues for the gang!
