I have an new BIS International and National Champion Puppy Conifer's Sunday Morning Service "Lucy" She passed with flying colors by all four judges. She came home with a Group 3, 2, and 1. And then to top it off she got Best in Show Puppy out of 185 entered and 65 puppies.

ya hahahahah you and your soaps LOLOL we have you pegged... phone message LIES!! LOLOLOLOL you arent ignoring us .. your watching soaps !!LOLOLOL
xoxo thanks again:)
ya.. for my little scattered girl, think you may be right .. break her in at ukc shows... less pressure and see how she handles show environment.... and if she adapts well, then maybe move her into AKC... good way to see how she handles showing in general... she does ok in our training and practice here at home , but is just a twit enough that I am not sure she is going to "like" showing" and if they dont like it... they wont show well for you... will be a great way to see how she handles a more relaxed environment and and will be a fairly good indicator if she stresses out at UKC she wont handle akc well at all...
good practice ground I think..
wish I had had her as a younger pup than 9 months ... would have had more time to focus on show exposure and training and socializing etc... but as it is we have spent all out time growing her up and on the basics.. so now at 2 just thinking about whether to show or not....

well shel, now we have to motavate you and get you going in UKC also. i think when you have a dog that isn't quite as outgoing or is a little reserve about new things and people, UKC is a great way to start for showing, the shows are smaller and the pressure just isn't there like AKC. kind of a training ground. and you will meet so many nice people (almost. there a a few sharks!) but it isn't as much as AKC. i think having your dogs active in more than one is great. i'm glad you had fun this weekend. i told you sandy doesn't bite. i hear the cheesecake was a huge hit! can't wait to try some. gotta go- it's soap time. later

this sounds like the kind of judge we all wish we had all the time. will have to watch for him in the future. also sounds like a great judge to start youngsters under. finding a gentle judge is not always easy to do.
