Wanted to share some quick random pictures, as I've had a decent day, and am feeling very proud of the work my husband and I have done lately.
Boz went to his first show with me this past weekend, and on Friday, we did nothing, but the judge complimented me on his excellent coat condition, and many spectators also complimented me on my ring presentation, his conditioning, and his ring training.
On Friday night he placed 3rd in his class under Jimmy Moses, and on Saturday he placed 4th under a notable breeder judge. We did not show on Sunday
Jon and I have worked extremely hard to get Boz into show shape, and we take pride not only in the fact that our efforts are being recognized, but that the DOG is working so incredibly hard for us. We are starting to become his people while he is away from his owner, and it's notable.
Here is a then and now photo. The first photo was taken immediately after a bath, and it was the day after he had arrived home with us. The second photo is taken two days *post bath* and after a few weeks of conditioning both body and coat.
