Nationals

The boys have had some really great times in the past few weeks.  We went to Amana Iowa for 3 days of showing in the rain and thunderstorms. It was worth the delays and   wet dogs because at the end of the days Ash had his first point (yea) and his first Q in rally (awesome)

Now we are in Denver for Nationals.  We arrived on Tuesday morning and got checked in just in time for Al to get dressed and head into the ring for sweeps.  Ash and Al looked great in the ring but the judge liked the big dogs ( she doesn't know what shes missing) so nothing for my boys but that's how the dog show turns. 
Day 2 brought the breed ring and a 2nd in the class for the boy's wow the judge said she loved his movement an would like to see some more dog ( that will come)
 The boys in the ring waiting there turn

I think he was sticking his tongue out at the camera wearing his ribbon with pride

Hey Al do you still have some bait


 After waiting for pictures Ash got some off leash play time with Al
Tonight is the junior parade and tomorrow morning is juniors (keep you fingers crossed)
