Dog show season!

We cannot wait for Dog show season to start!! Alba is finally old enough to be in the show ring and we are hoping she will receive a Champion title quickly and start for her Grand Champion title.This coming year will also be Molly's first time weight pulling in competition. Our first show isn't until February but we just finished paperwork to register so it feels like it will be here sooner than we know it!
Our dogs are all papered and we have the a lot of options of things that we can do with them (Agility, Confirmation, Obedience, Weight pull to name the main ones). We mostly show in the Confirmation ring and Weight pull. Bosley and Molly have both received their UKC Champion title in the show ring and Bosley has an R4 APA weight pull title, meaning he has pulled 40 times his body weight at least 3 times in competion, and he has 1 leg toward his R5 APA weight pull title. For all of you who are curious about a show here are a couple pics from last year.

At a show.. she was quite the lap dog when she was a puppy!



UKC has a program where kids and teens can show dogs for certificates and awards. Sladen thought it was so fun to help show Molly. It was a fun experience for dad and son!

Bosley took Best of Breed and then Best of the Guardian group at a show in June. He was sent to the Best of Show ring and almost won!! We were to proud of our boy!
