Dog gone weekend

Hi, I Hope all is well with everyone.

I took Birdie out to a local dog show this weekend. Normally, I'd load everyone in the RV and off we'd go.

But the show was only about 20 mins away so we jumped in the van and off we went.

Yesterday wasn't great. She was just too full of herself and was just too silly, so only a 2nd place for her.

Today, she showed MUCH better. She won her class, but did  not bring home the points. Oh well, at least she performed well.

Below are pix of her relaxing ringside.

Blogger and my phone are having issues tonight..grrrr

so I'll cut tonights post short.

I should have walked around to take some pics of the amazing rigs at the show, but I tried to curtail my walking to a minium due to my foot and wearing the foot brace.

I'll have to do that in a future post.

~As always, be kind to your pets, clean up after them on your travels and respect your neighbor.~

Sad Goodbyes...my buddy, Bravo

Bravo, I miss you deeply. I love you dearly. I'll never, ever forget you.

 

Thank you for all the years of love & happiness.

 

Thank you for the smiles in your younger years of entertaining crowds with your antics of tail chasing.

 

Thank you for the pups that you have sired, letting your special temperament & qualities follow through .

 

Thank you for your kind, loving, gentle, yet exhuberant soul.

 

Thank you for sharing your life with me, although I feel it was too short. I wanted you to live forever...

My heart is sick.

 

As I've told you often, you are the best dog in the world.

 

~ I will always love you~
