My Rhodesian Ridgeback has 2 shows this weekend.
Why is it a big weekend? Well, he has 6 points right now. 2 3 point majors, both earned at this very same show last year. What can I say...he's been shown lightly. If he wins Winner's Dog on both Saturday and Sunday, he will earn 9 points total, and FINISH his championship!! He's been with his breeder since last month, getting show ring fit and gorgeous, and I have REALLY high hopes for him.
He will be facing some stiff competition, including two gorgeous dogs from California. But my boy, what can I say, he's a sexy beast and I think he could win the Nationals right now. He's looking THAT good.
So if you can spare a moment for us on Sat and Sun, and send your good vibes our way, I would appreciate it SO much!! I already have butterflies,
UPDATE: Ok, one day down, one more to go!! Austin took Best of Winners yesterday, so he got 4 points. There's 5 points possible today, so whatever you guys are doing, keep on doing it!! I haven't seen my boy in nearly a month, and wow, does he look fantastic!! (He's lost six pounds
)
I got some nice pictures of him yesterday. If I can find my camera cord, (darnit!) I will post some later.
2nd UPDATE: He got Best of Winners again!! 2 dogs didn't show up today, though, so he only got 4 points. He needs 1 more point to finish (AAARRGH!!) so he's gone for 3 more weeks. He's showing in New Mexico, where he should pick up his last point easily. Now we're contemplating a specials career. THANK YOU all so much for the well wishes!! It worked!!
