All About Dogs

Hi, y'all!

Today, we have had a TOTALLY, AMAZINGLY, FANTASTICALLY PAWSOME day!! That's right, we went to our local All About Dogs show! And of course, Earl came too!! (I mean, what would the day we without him?? Its all about him!!)



It was extremely fun! I also entered him in all the fun dog show classes that fitted him as a dog and I as the handler, including:

~ Obedience
~ Quickest Sit
~ Waggiest Tail
~ Best Junior Handler
~ Best 6 legs
~ Awesome Eyes
~ Finest Fella
~ Dog Judge would most like to take home

Earl was truly well behaved and great in all classes! And we came away with these places….

~ 1st in Obedience
~ 1st in Fastest Sit
~ 5th in Best Junior Handler
~ Special Merit Award along with 5th place in Best Junior Handler
~ 2nd in Best 6 Legs

Yay!


From the purple rosette to the right, that is our winnings from the day, and from the purple rosette to the left, that's our purchases from the day! And...

And on Earl's neck, there is a red "I Woof You' bandanna we bought at the show today, and a little classy bow tie!!! 

Some snaps from the day:

Starting off well with a car journey...


Getting pampered by my Nanny who we took along on the way

And below, are the truly unique liquorice assorts shaped dog treats! They taste like beef, and look like sweets!! Earl loves them - they're a great little snack,


Here we are having a great time in the Have-A-Go-Agility ring! All his runs were clear, and he did it beautifully!




Now our instructed Obedience round, in which we won!

What a well behaved little man!

And here is his adorable 'I Woof You' bandanna, in red!



There was also a Kidgility display, encouraging children in the audience to hold or be the agility equipment for this lovely little dog. Yes, he/she is pink!


And here, well here, is Earl's classy bow tie from Ditsy Pet! Hehe! He looks even more like a true gentleman wearing it!




And Earl loves his squeaky rubber chicken leg he won with hi 5th place!


I got it mum! Nom nom nom!


It was an amazing day! We had a great time! And we met some lovely dogs, owners, and breeds there too. 

Plus there were a selection of great displays, engaging with the audience, or just wooing them into a sea of 'ahhhh…!'s!

Thank goodness for doggy days out!

    1. Thanks! No, unfortunately not! But then she may not like Borders. Its the judge's likes in that one, not the actual dog.
