It is eight o'clock and we are starting with the Maturity dogs. I missed the
amateur handlers' class. Tedi and I got the last two hamburgers before they
closed. Big mistake. I never had a burger with sawdust in it.
Bill Leonard is standing behind us, so I won't bring up politics. It is one
long day. We start at 7:30 each day, so it is going to be long week. Joyce
Ebert came by, as Sue continues to look at the males. It may just be me, but
the Futurity Dogs looked better. Karen Taylor is here and everyone has settled
down. I was going to White Castle and get four dozen for everyone, but I ran
out of time. Maybe tomorrow.
I see more and more people whose name's I can't remember. So, I asked Bob, and
he is worse than me. I need someone younger to sit with me, but the younger
people want to ignore me. Who said the youth don't have wisdom.
I find it interesting that Sue makes extensive note after each dog, but goes to
the table to do it. Now it is Kent with DuChien's Honor Guard. A Captain
American son. I would breed Kisses to Captain America, were she not his
sister. Ricky is here and Lindsey walked by. More note taking by the judge.
Jennifer Root is here, Paul can't be far behind. Paul just walk That is the
first group.
She is pulling, Lennie, then Kent, then Jeff. It takes three of us to get the
names. Lennie has Code Red, Kent with Honor Guard, and Jeff with Excalibur.
And off go the three of them, walking. Around go the "Not To Be" for this year.
And, now they line up. Six in there, and she marks the book with John as the
ring steward, she sends them out to bring out the next group.
Pam O'Dell is walking in front of us, the board member, and Sue Godek is still
going the individuals. Bob Mahia and Leanna New too, but not together. Sherri
Moses is at the table. Sherri stopped to talk, more t Bob, but I got to listen.
Sherri gets more beautiful every year.
California Chrome is in there now, with Zac. He is a great dog. Sue gave him a
good look, I think she liked him and didn't write much. I see Richard Sottile
doubling his dog. Sue tells him to take him around.
She puts Agon D Rancho in front with California Chrome in second. I would
think he would be hard to beat. Two California dogs. They walk and they stay
that way. Midas Touch with Mike now with Galieo in Second behind him. The
first four dogs are Califonia dogs. Linda Ferguson stopped by. Now she looks
great, and is always fun to talk to.
California Chrome in FRONT. Then Agon, and the rest where go and she pulls Kent
up with Honor Guard. Chrome looks great and I think he will win. Chrome
looks fantastic and Sue goes to the front of the ring, looks at teh hear, and
the rear. Then to the next one, Honor Guard, and now to the third, and stands
back and now Galielo. She sure does pick the best, and Chrome back and forth,
or for Ed, down and back. And, they all get a turn, she makes no changes so
far.
They stack and she stands back and looks them over. She walks to the end and
looks some more. She sends all but the first two back and there they go, first
Zac, then Bill, Mike, Art, Kent, Lennie, Jeff and Scott. That's it First was
California Chrome, Second was Bomar Agon De Rancho Backachers, Third was
Champion Rosewood's Mida touch of Kansten, (yesterday's Best of Breed), and
Fourth was GCH Ch Rosewood's Galileo TC.
It is 9:00 pm and we haven't done the Maturity Bitches. I am exhausted. But,
I live to serve you.
