Longview Kelso Kennel Club

This was the weekend of the AKC shows in St Helens Oregon. The weather was a mix of everything from rain to cold to sun to rain and all in the same 5 minutes! There were no Briards entered in conformation but I had Tessa entered for the first time in Open obedience and she did a wonderful job. On Saturday she got the first leg toward her CDX with a score of 197 and first place. Kind of blew me away with how well she worked and how nothing fazed her. Today she got her second leg with a 195 and another first place. Who knew you could lose so many points when the dog picks up a mouthful of sand with the dumbell? It's called mouthing and they aren't supposed to do it. I thought it was rather smart of Tessa to hang on to the dumbell while spitting the sand out at the same time! All in all it was a fun weekend of showing and I look forward to our next time out.
