I was in Phx. but if you are expecting me to tell you who won I must
disappoint you as I did a lot of socializing with new and old friends. I
did glance at the catalog which indicated that O'Connor would be there
with his "master", but neither showed. Now I know why.
The weather was absolutely horrible. Just as I got to the show grounds it
started raining and rained the entire day and it really started to get
cold as well We were more or less huddled under trees and awnings and
watched the poor handlers get wetter as they ran around the ring. The
dogs did not care, the loved it.
Frank Fasano was standing in the middle of the ring and was pretty much
drenched. There was Flower Boy standing outside the ring - without his
Raiders' cap. Now, where was his cap? Then I realized what he was
laughing about - Frank Fasano was wearing the Raiders' Cap under the
hood of his jacket. Everyone had a good laugh on this.
What I did see were some beautiful bitches that took your breath away. I
also thought that the males were very nice I will let someone else to
post the winners. I pretty much know who they were, but do not want to
make any mistakes in posting the wrong thing.
