astrid Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 You know that big, nationally-televised dog show that is broadcast live every year in February? The one at Madison Square Garden in New York City? the WESTMINSTER KENNEL CLUB DOG SHOW??? I clicked "Submit" on Molly's entry. :scared: Yesterday she took another 5 point major on her dog, which clinched the invitation to this prestigious show. This is the big leagues, and my 13 year old and her 4-H project dog are going to The Show. We're pretty excited but nervous, too. This is the realm of professional handlers, and the idea that my kid will be in there runnin' with the big dogs, with a dog she has trained, shown and loved herself makes me blanch. But we're going. Molly's gotten her this far on her own, and the two should go into the ring together. They're a team, and we're so proud of them both. Watch for us in February! astrid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evergreen State Sue Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 What breed of dog are we looking for? We enjoyed watching the dog show on Thanksgiving Day. It will be even more fun to watch this one cheering for a dog from the board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
astrid Posted November 29, 2010 Author Share Posted November 29, 2010 Leonberger. It's new to the AKC this year, so even if we don't win Best of Breed and go into the Group (primetime) telecast, there will likely be some of those between-commercial info spots in the benching area. I'll post more when I know the details. astrid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
