Asher and I competed in the Mastergroom Canada Intermediate Poodle competition on Sunday. It was only ever my 2nd time competing in a grooming competition and I was really not feeling hopeful going into it. But we pulled off a 3rd place finish in a tough crowd!

That boy knows how to play to his crowd . He looks incredible, as always. Great team!

Of course your grooming was wonderful, but what I really liked were the well muscled hindquarters on Asher. Kudos to you for keeping him in good shape.

Congratulations. Asher really rocks. Loved the picture of the doggie kiss - the tongue got me.

I’m not surprised! You undoubtedly had the finest dog among the competitors and you’ve got all the skills. Congratulations!

YOWZA! What a stellar groom! He looks fantastic! Did you see our boy Freedom there?

 

[Mysticrealm]

Thank guys! I was quite happy with the results.

I'm not sure. What color was he? I mostly saw the dogs in my close vicinity, and only caught glimpses of the others before competition or waiting for awards after judging.

Congratulations! Beautiful job on the grooming & the conditioning. Asher is gorgeous. But I must confess, I love that last picture with him giving you a smooch!

This is him with Winnie, the groomer who used him for the competition.

Oh ok. I think I saw him from a distance but they were about as far from me as they could be so I sure didn't get a good look. Looks lovely.
