The boys are doing great getting used to each other I am amazed at how good

 Ash getting Tank to play with him

 And showing him that its fun to dig holes

Freeport

We had a couple weeks off that the boys played a lot
 and just enjoyed being dogs
 

they love to wrestle

 



the Freeport  show was kinda crazy the first day Al showed Ash

in juniors and got a first place open senior.  at the same time I thought I

was gonna have to show Buzz  until Al got there but our friend Mary said she

would take him in so she got him in the ring and Al arrived and was allowed to

switch but nothing for buzz that day and Ash didn't make it for breed

Day 2 Al took Buzz in for juniors and should have gotten 1st but the

judge gave it to the boy that looked most like him.

Look how he is standing



Al doing a great job in juniors

We had the same judge for breed so we weren't expecting much

but I was wrong he loved Ash and gave him first in the class 



 We were very excited and Ash ended up getting reserve to the puppy

 then in the ring with Buzz again there were 3 specials 2 boys and a girl.  The judge gave

Spike BOB, winners dog BOW, and winners bitch BOO, no select anything

 

I guess we never need to show Buzz to him again

 

When the show was over we rushed home so Al could race his cardboard boat

(a physics class assignment)

It was cool sat 2 people made of cardboard and duct tape

We must be crazy

So I think we must be totally crazy, you see we thought it would be fun

to drive out to see my sisters new house in Longmont Co.  the 14 hour drive  wouldn't be bad if we had a couple days to do it but we left after school on Thursday to be there to show by 8:00 am on Friday.  There was a back to back Keeshund speciality on Friday and a sporting breed speciality also so Al showed in Juniors 3 times and breed.  There was also all breed show's on Saturday and Sunday. 

Ruth has a great new house with a yard to die for there are a couple small stone ponds that the boys loved.  Buzz was being silly stretching out to get a drink



Al even went in the ponds to play with the dogs as Ash kept a close eye ( he was ready to jump in and save his boy if anything went wrong)

Ash looking very interested at the other dogs 

 

Ash moved great in the ring (as always) but got 2nd of 2

And nothing for Buzz but he is looking great and Al worked on happy dogs in the ring.

He was very tired ( and didn't know I took this while he was sleeping so please don't tell him)

The all breed days were the same outcome for Ash and Buzz ( oh well you cant win everyday)

Juniors was a different 

Al showed Moon in the kees specialties and on Saturday with Best junior for both of the specialties and a 2nd in class on the all breed

He showed Buzz on Sunday and got 2nd in his class again so Junior points with both Buzz and Moon this weekend 

On the way home Ash and Al had some great bonding time as both were very tired

And Ash didn't want Buzz to feel left out so he snuggled with him some also

Over all a short but great weekend and many thanks to Ruth and Ken for having us.
