Dog Show Pictures

I'm a little slow at getting these uploaded but I thought I'd share the few I took anyway...

I competed in my first dog show on the 19th and 20th of June here on PEI. It was a different experience for sure... a bit more waiting around than I am accustom to but great fun all the same!

I was really happy with the pup I was showing - he minded his manners and Brittany actually handled him outside the ring all day Sunday... he has such a nice temperament.

A few random dogs...













Some of the dogs that gals I was with were showing....









A couple Newfie shots




AND the main man Cutter

Ahhhh,it's great to see pic's of different breeds of dogs.There all gorgeous,love the Doberman's and the newfies.Your dog is very pretty,unusal markings and he even has spots on his nose. Thanks for sharing. :dog006.gif: :dog006.gif: :doglaugh.gif:

GREAT PICTURES!!! All the dogs are so lovely! Thanks so much for sharing those. Was there any beagles???

Cutter is growing up to be one beautiful boy! How did he do?

I think those are Manchester Terriers Bernadette. Are any of them Mersey dogs D-Cutch? We have an accomplished Manchester breeder in Sackville.

Opps Barefoot_horsegirl,sure got that wrong.They do look very similar to Dobermans,the dark coat and tan markings.I've never heard of Manchester Terriers,are they bred mostly in Canada?

Was this a CKC show? I didn't think Aussie were recognized CKC? But it has been ten years since we had our Aussie.

My daughter so wanted a St. Bernard, I really gave it some thought, but I just don't think we can fit one in this house lol. Might as well get a mini, at least they (in theory) live in the barn.

The dogs that look a bit like Dobermans are actually German Pinschers.

I can't say with 100% confidence there were/weren't any Beagles because there were some dogs that look like Beagles but some of the breeds send me for a loop because in my mind they look a lot like another breed... German Pinschers, Manchesters and Dobermans are a good example of a couple breeds that all have many similarities.

Aussies are recognized by CKC - Cutter took some Reserve in breed but didn't receive any points towards his championship. The judges told me as he matures he would have easily won the class but at the moment he simply is not "masculine" enough to finish against full grown females which I understand completely. He only just reached showing age so lots of maturing to do yet! He also needs his nose to finish pigmenting - it should be completely black by the time he is 1 year old.

Thanks for sharing the photos. What beautiful dogs. Cutter looks just as sweet as ever. Is he still barking? And tell him that he WILL look like a man and get those damn points - once he isn't a baby anymore! Do they divide the classes into age categories? I know absolutely NOTHING about showing dogs.
