Alex Is Doing Great at Denver Shows

We have completed 2 days of the 3 days we plan to show Alex at the dog shows in Denver. There is a relatively small entry of boys, so we can’t win a major in boys. However, there are a lot of girls, and if he beats them by winning “Best of Winners”, he gets their points.

On Friday, he won Winners Dog, and earned 2 points. However, on Saturday he not only won Winners Dog but Best of Winners, too. So, he got a 4-point major!

Alltogether, so far he has won 6 points and the 1 major. We’ll see how things go today, Sunday, and I’ll update this post. Meantime, here is a photo of him from Saturday with his handler, Jeni, and the judge who gave him the major.

1. Well, on Sunday Alex won Reserve Winners Dog. That is kind of like 1st runner up in a beauty pageant. It means he was judged the second best non-champion boy (out of about 10 dogs). And, if something happens that the winning dog is disqualified, Alex would get the win.

   Anyway, it was a good weekend for us—6 points and one 4-point major. Don’t know where we will head next. Maybe Scottsbluff, Nebraska in early April.
