Tank's first show

we were in Chicago for IKC show this weekend and Alex showed Tank on Saturday
he did better than expected he stood nice for Alex and had no problem with the exam
of course about half the time he acted like the 6 month puppy he is by jumping over tape and needing to sniff everything (his nose is crazy)
 Nice stack
 Hes thinking the judge is coming to play with him but he stayed put
 he had moments of very nice movement in between the puppy prancing and tape hopping

 look at those ears (he is very expressive with them)

Tank got his first blue ribbon at his first show it was very exciting and Alex remembered how fun it is to show a puppy.  Tank is a little different than others Alex can't have any bait in his pocket while showing Tank his nose knows its there and he gets over excited
 working with Buzz before juniors

It was a large juniors class with some really great kind
 but Alex and Buzz worked it the whole time
 The judge really worked the kids and Alex took 2nd place ( They are a great team)
Day 2 juniors was at 9 AM and Alex did good but no placement oh well  

Breed on Sunday they looked great
Nice stack but nothing for Buzz  Bummer  but there is always next weekend we are going to
Grey Summit MO. for the double specialty on Friday and Alex will be a busy boy showing both Buzz and Tank there.

DesMoines

DesMoines was a short trip we only stayed for Saturday Alex had a school dance Saturday evening and we didn't make it back to show at 8 AM Sunday morning (oh well )

 In the ring for juniors the judge didn't give him the time of day
 Buzz had a nice free stack and all but nothing for Alex the good thin is that our friend Alyssa got best junior for her 5th open win before she ages out in 2 weeks ( yea )
 Breed was like 40 min after juniors and Buzz seems to struggle with not enough time to relax but not in and out right away also so he was a little fidgety
 This picture made me laugh it looks like they are dancing while the judge is watching
But another nice free stack at the end of his down and back
still nothing for Buzz
