Default One more Canine Good Citizen on the block!

The Bismarck Kennel Club is holding four shows (Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday) here in Bismarck. I volunteered to be a table steward for the rally and obedience shows, but I was able to sneak in a little time to get Lucybug tested for her Canine Good Citizen title today and the little bugger PASSED!! She was totally awesome and made her mom and dad very proud! Quite an accomplishment for an 11 month old pup!!

This week has been a trip so far... I originally volunteered to table steward, but someone else in my club also "volunteered" me to handle a standard poodle puppy for an owner whose plans fell through for handler help this week/weekend!! I helped her show her 8 1/2 month old white bitch yesterday and today and "my" puppy, Angel, took reserve both days! Yesterday was my first day to set my size 8 shoe inside a conformation ring!! What an experience!!! I'm pretty sure I'll be asked to do more spoo handling over the next couple of days even though I still really don't know what the heck I'm doing! Here are a couple of shots of me trying my best to pretend I know what's going on! The last picture in the series here is the newly crowned CGC Princess Lucybug during our kennel club's "Meet the Breed" event last month (excuse her goofy haircut - this event was just 3 days after her botched groom!)

From the front, Lucy's top knot doesn't look terrible, just much shorter than it had been. Congrats to her and you! And those white spoos are gorgeous!

Is that last picture you, Lucy and Meau? If so - Meau is absolutely gorgeous in color even though she has faded from her original brown! Seriously- stunning! If Millie fades to that color I will NOT complain

And I agree about Lucy's topknot - doesn't look so bad from the front!

Lucy is just so precious! Congrats to her on getting her CGC!!!!

Thanks, CM!! Yes, that's Meau and I agree - I think her color is sooo cool. Katy is a little disappointed because she really liked her dark brown baby color, but her adult color is gorgeous (IMO!) If you look at her coat, there are no light hairs interspersed throughout dark brown, all her dark brown hairs (except for her ears and feet didn't change as much) actually "silvered" to a beautiful color!! We love our poodles!

Yay for Lucy!! I thought the same thing as the others--topknot looks just fine in that photo. So you are a professional handler now I know who to call when I get back to the states.
