Ginger's story ...
Marion turned out to be
pretty good for us. We
took Daisy with us too.
Friday was at 10:30, and
Ginger had a long car
ride of
standing/squatting the
whole time, and was
pretty stressed by the
time we got there. She
got 2nd in
her class.
Saturday was at 8am, so
leaving the house at
6:30am, Ginger was more
willing to lay down in
the van, so she didn’t
look so tired by the
time we got there.
There were 9 dogs in our
class, and I wasn’t
expecting anything, but
to my surprise she took
1st in her
class, then Winner’s
Bitch for 2 points.
Wow!
By Sunday she was
getting used to the ride
and knew where she was
going (like it or not).
But, we weren’t as
lucky, again with 9 dogs
in her class, she only
got 4th
(which in my eyes is a ‘gimme’).
Monday, I was very
tempted to not even go,
after 3 days of “To and
From” and there was such
a small entry that only
1 point was going to be
available, but I
figured, what the heck,
if nothing else, I don’t
want to no-show and be
the cause of no points
be awarded to someone.
We piled in the
van……again. It was well
worth the drive. Ginger
took 1st in
her class, then beat the
bred-by winner for
Winner’s Bitch and 1
more point.
So, in Marion Ginger
earned 3 more points and
now has a total of 10
points. She still needs
one more major. We’ll
see what happens next in
Delaware.
I hope to enter Daisy
too. I can’t believe
how fast she is
growing! She weighs 24
pounds already, that’s
about 4 pounds more than
Ginger was at that age.
She’s not fat at all.
We walk every morning
for about 45 minutes,
and practice obedience
too. She’s good. She
and G are good friends.
Ginger has mellowed out
a lot, between the walks
and the extra play with
Daisy, she’s much
calmer.
