Helena Day Two

Capella was Reserve to the major yesterday — close but no cigar.

After the beauty pageant part was done, we all changed our clothes and moved on to the draft test.

Because I spent $160 on new rain/snow boots the day before (after seeing the forecast), it rained before the test and after the test but not during the test. These are some seriously powerful boots!

Wildflower Chase was there with his human and they passed the Open Draft test.

Congratulations Team Chase! 🎉

Grand Master Draft Dog Jordan (Sparkler) was there as well but as moral support to the family — she has done PLENTY of draft tests, after all ❤️

Jordan ⭐️

Claire was in Open and she passed. She already had the title and so I suppose we are accumulating passes towards advanced draft titles now. A dog needs five passes in a class for the advanced title for that particular class. The same is true for our Sundance/Claire brace team — they passed Novice Brace for the third time.

And we do it all again today. Maybe I should wear those boots in the Breed ring??? 🤔 That would be quite a look.

Happy Saturday to you 🌈

Dog Show Life

I have a lot to say about this anniversary show weekend but I will save that for another day.

Day One.

An exhausting five point major for Bright Star Capella. She needs one more major to finish her championship. Lucky Socks all around, please. We have three more days 🍀🙏🏽

Claire, in the front of this photo, will do the draft test today.

So today is beauty pageant first and then draft.

Yep, I am in my Happy Place, made all the happier because some of my favorite people and dogs are here as well.

❤️

I hope you are having a happy day, regardless of place.
