Matt decided to go down to York, PA again this year to show. He went last year to show Donna’s dogs, but this year he entered Greta. The Working Dog show was also held this weekend in Springfield, MA. It was a tough decision for him, but ultimately he went with York for a shot at more points because there were more shows.
Greta was entered in both Specialty shows, Friday night and Saturday night. She was in Sweeps Saturday and entered at the All-Breed Show Saturday and Sunday.
As I was mopping the bathroom floor Friday night (because it absolutely stunk of wet dog), the phone rings. I’m thinking that the phone is ringing way too early for me to have any results from the show. I pick up and it’s Donna Lee.
“I couldn’t wait to call you. Matt said to wait, but I couldn’t. Greta took her class and Reserve Winner’s Bitch. Can you believe it? And she should go Best Bred -By.”
“Really?” I say. I don’t think it actually sunk in. Then it did.
“She went Reserve at a Specialty?” And so it was true, our own Greta went Reserve with an entry of 14 Bitches! I was just so excited! Matt called me a little bit later to tell me that she did go Best Bred-By also. I think I am more proud of that than the Reserve. This is the first Saint that we have bred and showed, so it’s significantly more monumental as breeders.
She didn’t fair as well at the rest of the shows. Bummer for her, but she is a great girl and will finish her Championship soon. I don’t know when the next show is for her. We did miss the Syracuse entries, sorry everyone!
And tomorrow is someone’s birthday! My “Man” is getting old and senile……
*I will try to get full results up soon. There are some Saints that won that I am not familiar with. Instead of referring to them as “So and So’s dog”, I decided to not post until I have the catalog*
