Hi poohbearsmom!
I'm sorry I didn't meet you at the show.
I left on Thursday and wasn't able to get online before I left. (I took the extra time to do some shopping in Pigeon Forge
) I had a great time in Tennessee!!!! The weather was wonderful, generally cool and just a slight amount of rain. The show was fabulous!!!! IMO, there were some really nice dogs there. I met SOOO many helpful people and gained a great deal of knowledge. The people I met treated me like a friend they had known for awhile. I was grateful for my comfortable chair, sunscreen and an umbrella. I really liked the fact that the judge gave his critiques using his microphone and explained what he liked and didn't like in not only each individual dog, but the classes as a whole. LOL, I DID have my running shoes on, (due to comfort) even though I was just a spectator and I definitely would have put them to use if I had been in the ring. That judge sure did pay attention to movement/gait
. I plan on going to the show in Kentucky in the fall. This time it will hopefully be as an exhibitor though
