We had a great time at the Nationals. Although we did not get our Open title, Graycee got legs 5 & 6 towards her RAE. She also TITLED in Agility with a First Place in Novice Standard.

Congratulations! Someone from where we train finished her dog's UD there, as well as getting leg #2 on his VER , and 2 RAE legs. Maybe one of theses years Caleb & I will get there.

The venders were great, I got lots of lab goodies. The raffles were awesome, the only problem was I couldn't buy any tickets for it because the drawings we're at the end of the week. The prizes for Agility were a nice pewter medalion and paw print letter opener and a nice rosette. Not sure what the prizes for obedience were. I think the medalion. I should have bought 4 qualifying green rosettes home but someone forgot to order them. So they have to mail them to us. It will be nice to get them but would have been better if I could have them at the show to take pictures. It was a National with no qualifying ribbons to hand out. Someone made a big oops!!!!!!!!!!!!! Other than that it was organized, well run, everyone was helpful and they were very accomodating, especially with all my conflicts. I'll go again if I ever have the opportunity.

I heard the same thing.

If you have the opportunity to go you'll have a blast. I just wish I had time to get to meet a few more people. St. Louis is just a bit to far for me. But maybe someday it will come with in driving distance to me again.
