Maverick's show pictures

We had a great weekend showing at the Memorial Cluster in Hampton, Va. Maverick went WD 2 days!

There was a fabulous photographer there (Phyllis Ensley Photography- "The Perfect Movement") and Sunday and Monday they took pictures of the pointers. Sunday's photos were not good of Maverick (he chose to be naughty that day!), but Monday's turned out well!

We're off to Richmond, VA next... we're praying for majors!!

BEST PUPPY IN MATCH!!

We took Miss Dahlia to the Greater Fredericksburg Kennel Club today for their Puppy Match! It was cold and pouring down rain! Luckily we had the sense to take our canopy/tent thing, so we stayed out of the cold rain mostly. I did manage to forget my flipping sweatshirt, but luckily by the time we showed the rain had mostly let up!

In any case, per the AKC, they used the proposed group realignment for this show. So, Miss Dahlia was the only Pointer, so she won her breed, and went on to win the "Sporting-Pointers and Setters" group! She was a complete goofball, but a happy girl nonetheless, and I loved to see her thing everything was absolutely super fun!

So, on to Best Puppy in Match! She was still playing goofy girl, but she WON Best Puppy in Match! Yay!

Watch me!!

Best Puppy!

What a good little puppy...

Miss Dahlia (who has picked up the nickname "Day-Day")is impressing us every day. She is absolutely obsessed with "her" tennis ball! She could fetch for hours. I could swear she's part Lab...

She also LOVES water! We took her to Sandy Bottom Park and she literally dove into the water. This goofy girl seriously keeps us laughing!!






Thunderbirds!

Here's some of the "good photos from last Sunday at Langley Air Force Base... the Thunderbirds were incredible!!
