I decided to do a little something different with a little nugging from a friend. I registered a dog whom is an AKC CH with UKC and attended 4 shows this weekend. The shows were in a building with mats I have never moved this dog on mats before and I was unsure of what he was going to do, well it did not faze him he still moved with power and suspension around the ring. And to my delight and surprise he went BIS two times and group 2 the other two with Mom at the end of the lead. He is now AKC & UKC CH Signature's Frazier v Kaleef TC OFA, I got lots of comments on his quality, movement and temperament. He was the perfect gentleman all weekend, loving up on the kids and letting all sorts of people come up and pet him, I could not be more proud of him.
