Nationals or Bust

I am so freakin excited. May 10-16th, I will finally get to attend the Miniature Pinscher National Competition. I can't freakin wait. I will be taking my chocolate girl, Piper and showing her in the Best of Breed Competition and possibly handling one of the Top 20. A lady that has one of the top 20 dogs in the nation called ME, (blushing) and explained that her Handler isn't going to be able to make it to Nationals and wanted to know if I (still blushing) would be interested in taking him into the Top 20.

 

The Top 20 is a gala of sorts for recognition for the 20 Highest ranked dogs in the Nation for 2007 - it is very snooty and all the best are there, normally, I wouldn't even consider going - it is formal attire. But here I am, thinking about actually HANDLING a Top 20! Wow. I am so excited. A couple of my show friends are getting together to drive up there - we are all located near and around Houston and the Nationals are being held this year in Oklahoma City. What fun.

 

An entire week of Min Pins. Hopefully I will be banded and everyone will be able to see a difference in the way I look. I was creating a budget, and put 30 a day for food - then I thought wait a freakin minute! I will be banded, hmm, food budget is now MAD MONEY!

    WOW Wendy...this sounds like soooo much fun!!! I LOVE Pins!!! I actually had a pin (for about 8mnths) who was hit by a car and I had to have him put down.....the hardest thing I had to do.....HE WAS SUCH A SWEETIE. Perfectly symmetrical, black and rust. I love the chocolates.... You'll have to keep me updated on your decision!!! That would be a perfect week with all of those sweeties!!!! Jackie
