I figured I'd start a thread for Sako that I'll update whenever we go to shows :)

For anyone that didn't read the other thread, last weekend was our first UKC show and he was Best Male in both shows, as well as BOW in both shows. So he got 50 points and 2 majors, halfway to his UKC Ch.

Today was our first AKC show and we were the only puppy, so we got first LOL. Didn't get anything in group though, which was kind of expected (although the judge put this American Bully looking dog ahead of us..oh well). My dad was there taking pictures and DELETED them all before I even looked at them because he said they were bad :brickwall: So yeah.. I have no pictures from our first AKC show.. so sad :(

But we did take this when we got home:

He's posted a bit but oh well, he was tired and I'm sick with a cold so this was the best we got!

I think I'm doing another AKC show at the end of June.. depends on if my breeder goes or not. Will update if I do!

What happened to the facebook friends who were going to take pics? Hopefully one of them got a pic of you in the ring.

Congrats on the first :clap: Were you happy with how he showed? How did you do? Good experience anyway :cheer:

My one friend that was going to come had a sick puppy so couldn't make it :( And of course, I forgot MY camera so my boyfriend couldn't get any either. Total fail.

He did great. He's a freak of nature with stacking.. just stands there and doesn't move.

Yay! Cute picture!!! :) So your show had a Best Puppy in Show class? I've never been to a show that had that! Or at least, not that I remember....I suppose maybe when my old dog was showing but we only showed out of Open so maybe I just wouldn't have noticed.

But it's great experience to go back into the ring! :cheer: :cheer:

Sounds like it's been all good so far!! :clap:

No it wasn't Best Puppy, just puppy (6-9 months). UKC has a Best Puppy class though, but it was only for pups under 6 months.

It was probably Best Puppy in breed or where there no females either? Or Best Puppy in Group?

Trial, do you have Best Puppy in Group at your shows usually? they just don't finalize at Best Puppy of Show? Or not at Group either?

Drag about the camera Kady, hopefully next time.

No females, we were the one lonesome pup. I was sad, wished there would've been at least another female there!

I'm so mad about the camera situation. Ugh.

Oh OK, when you said group, then you meant Winners? I thought you meant Terrier group, so I assumed it was one of those Best Puppy shows. Don't give up though, remember that the 6-9 mo. puppy dog won a 4 point specialty major at the last show we were at! Cool! :woot:

BT, I've seen premium lists for shows that are giving awards for Best Puppy in Breed, Group & Show, but I've never been at a show like that. Not sure why? We have been to a number of shows where they offer a Gun Dog or Field Dog class....the Sporting Dog show in MA in March had an entire Group of Gun Dogs, which was fun to watch.

Nope, just plain old 6-9 month old pups. My friend with the Rottie pup did great today, got BOW against 2 adults! Poor girl had no clue she got it til the judge told her again.. it was pretty funny.

I can already tell that I'm not going to be a big fan of the politics of AKC.. I was talking to another Am Staff person today and she asked who my breeder was and when I said her name, she just scowled and walked away.. oook then! After that, none of their little group of people spoke to me. Hoping that if I go to the next AKC show in June that it'll be better, my breeder is supposed to come so I'll just buddy up with her so I'm not an outcast LOL.

OH! It was the Brittney specialty today, there were so many of them! Reminded me of Gimme :)

Yes, but if you won your 6-9 month class you would automatically advance to the Winners class, that's what I meant.

Yay for Brittanys! Where was the show? I think we're too far away to really know anyone there, but Gimme's G-Grandfather was very famous and lots of other dogs have been bred from his progeny. So...maybe some distant relatives.

Well, hopefully the other breeder/handlers will be more friendly in the future... :luck:

Right, we were in the Winners class, just didn't get anything, which was to be expected ;)

It was in Hampton, VA. Here's a list of the Brittany's that showed: http://www.infodog.com/RESULTS/2011024904/201102490410200.HTM maybe you know some :)
