Page 13 - ShowSight Presents - The Whippet

It had rained before the shows so the rings were soggy and the clubs decided to put straw in the rings to help with the muddy paths. After a few breeds and people running over the straw it had become slick. On the go around, it slid out from under me and I did a full slide along my side like I was sliding into home plate! When the judge saw he declared me safe. Luckily the dog I was showing just stopped. I stood up, covered in mud, and
finished going around. As fortune would have it, I did
win the points but decided against a photo.
RT: “Loretta” chews her lead if I am not paying attention, which is often. One day I was gabbing and the person
I was speaking with said where is “Loretta”? She had chewed through the lead and was found in a Dachshund set up on their table waiting to be groomed. The Dachs- hund guys thought it was funny. Their dog (also on the table) was not amused.
