Actually, not quite, but all three puppies have been entered in their first show. We took the trio to Ellen's house last week for her to see them, make show plans and drop off Jewel. She will be in two shows in NJ next week-end, then come home for a bit as she's not as "together" as she looks in pictures. Sadie, however, is very ready--although, of course, still a puppy so we're not expecting group wins, although a point or two would be a nice surprise. Ellen pronounced her "too cute" and said I need to get some pictures up on the blog (will do later this week). Tucker also needs more maturing before going out with Ellen, but since we like to support local shows, he and Jewel will be at the Middleburg shows on Oct 25 & 26 and then we'll see where/if they go from there.
In preparation for her ring debut, Sadie got the "treatment" today. She had a quick stop this morning at the vet, went to the library with me for a staff meeting, then to PetSmart to see new dogs and pick out toys for the gang, stayed in her crate in the car (with her new chew toy) while I did several errands, then finally home, ready to go out in the big play yard for a bit with her buds. I was very pleased with her good reactions to all her new experiences and eagerness to meet people. I think she will have a blast in the show ring!
