This is our little Bella, just as refined as her mother Haley.  Steve is taking her around the ring in the sweepstakes on Saturday.  Our handler Rebecca is leading in the other shows.

Steve stacking Bella up against the
rest of the competition

Yukon and Steve were in the sweepstakes where Yukon garnered a third place ribbon.  Rebecca showed Yukon to a couple of placings, with a best of second place. Not bad for his first time at the big show.

And now the BIG DOG.... JAKE.
This last trip with Rebecca and Christian (handling Jake here) produced 4 AKC
points towards his championship.  We
will continue the chase next year. 
Thanks again Rebecca and Christian
for such a good job

And it never gets old...
The End... til next year.

Jake stacks up pretty good against the other dogs...  It's funny but you can see the jusges preferences at each show... the first day they wanted an old fashioned Golden, medium color, wavy coat... the second day the judge was looking for a broad chest... on Monday the judge was looking for an all around Golden... Jake got 4th out of 20 dogs.
