WEEKEND CATCH UP TWO

Our final stop this weekend is in Houston Texas where the Houston KC and the Galveston County KC joined forces for two days of shows.

CH Risgae Miabella Sweet Georgia

On Saturday, Judge Vincent Grosso assembled a group of familiar names, the Golden Retriever, CH Toasty's Treasure Island, the Petit Bassett Griffon Vendeen, CH Afterglow Ebenezeer, the Komondor, CH Nagyalma Slew 'Em, the Lakeland Terrier, CH Hi-Kel Terrydale Soldier Of Fortune, the Pekingese, CH Franshaw Hear Me Roar, the Bichon Frise, CH Risgae Miabella Sweet Georgia, and the Cardigan Welsh Corgi, CH Heart Of Gold Power Play.

Day one went to arguably the least well know name among these, the Bichon, Georgia. Congratulations to breeder/owner Rick Day, co-owner Sheryl L Kapella, and handler Kayley Kovar.

CH Toasty's Treasure Island

Sunday, the Bichon, the Golden, the PBGV, the Lakeland, and the Peke would all show up for another try at BIS with Judge Robert Vandiver. They were joined by the Doberman Pinscher, CH Alex De Akido San, and the Australian Shepherd, CH Aliyah's Semper Fi Of Joywalk. Sunday’s BIS would go to arguably the best known of the finalists, the Golden, Treasure, who soon will be 2009‘s top Sporting Dog.

We are off to find out how our daughter’s Georgetown interview went. Later today we will celebrate Saint Patrick’s Day at The Tombs, the Georgetown bar made famous in the movie, St. Elmo’s Fire. We will be back later with a weekend preview and, yes, an editorial. Don’t go rolling your eyes. You’ll want to know about this one.
