Well, all in all, the trip was worth it. Despite the shows being horribly organized and running over FOUR HOURS behind, with an extremely rude host, we came back with some amazing results!
Nemo was shown by my mother this weekend! Her first time in the ring, Nemo earned Best of Breed against steep competition with tons of complements from the first judge. He was overjoyed to see a papillon with such "excellent type and breeding." Nemo went on to take a GROUP ONE and narrowly missed Best in Show.. Next time Nemo.. Next time!!
Cody took Best of Breed twice against a group placing, Multi Champion, then went on to a GROUP TWO!! SO CLOSE!! Cody's coat was in a bit of disrepair after shipping him home- if he would have been in complete condition, he would have nailed it! The second judge watched him like a hawk and when I put him on the table, he just watched. He came up to me and said "Now THAT is one HE** of a Showdog!!" That SO made my day!
Both boys came away with a neck full of medals, a group placement, and their INTERNATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS!! We are so proud of them!!
Win photos will be posted when they arrive!
