Getting in some practice .... it paid off.

It's been a rough ole month, and finalizing my interview on Thursday and a 3hr exam Friday.... it was sooooo nice to get away and do one of my passions this weekend.... and having it be a successful day was the cherry on the top!


I had been asked to show Linda Howie's sheltie, BPIS Shelamo's Riding The Sky - "Whistler" for the Saturday shows in Kingston.

With only 45 minutes to groom this boy, under respected judge Melvin Beech, I was able to show handle "Whistler" to a Winner's dog, Best of Winners and Best of Opposite Sex for a 5 pt win to finish his Championship.  His is now BPIS CH Shelamo's Riding The Sky. 

Congrat's Linda and Maureen, and thank you for entrusting this boy with me.  I enjoyed the experience... and I hope to carry this on when I bring my very own to their first shows next weekend.   

After the show, we took some pics of him.  I was very pleased on how they turned out.  Here are a few of my fav's.
