Thanks Julie, I guess I will brag a little

This was the first year I've actually shown something at potomac and had the "goal" of making some cuts...my babies did me proud!! Both Ditto and Spielberg made it to the final cut in their sweeps classes on Wednesday, but then they pooped out-got ADD and tails stopped. But I got those magical sissors and I was quite pleased! On thursday, they both "stayed on" the whole LONG class and Ditto got 3rd out of 31 and Spielberg WON his class of 18!! When the judge pointed to make the placements, my knees almost buckled...you would have though I just took a 5pt major! lol. If that wasn't enough, the Hyspire girls asked me to show him behind Rush in the stud dog class (Rush made it to the final cut of 7 out of 23 I think). I was quite a happy camper

Ditto and Spiel were the only puppies in my first litter last spring. To say that they're special to me is a HUGE understatement!! Friends took a bunch of pic and I'll share when I get them...

Not just a great show for you, but to be those puppies' BREEDER and owner, and handler. And at such a HUGE show! I'm thrilled for you. You deserve to stay up in the clouds for a while after all of that!
