Hi there folks.  Well my new baby Lexi at only her thrid Championship show (fifth show of any kind) was a very good girl yestereday.  In the Proplan Puppy stakes she won the bitch class, then beat the dog winner, and today on returning to challenge the other days winners she won.

Unlike yesterday when she was very good, she was over exuberant and naughty on the move, but Les Aspin seems to be a man with a sense of humour, as she won!!!

Well done, what a lovely start to her career :)

Karen

Clever Lexi :)

Well done both of you :)

Thanks girls :D

I was wearing a new hand me down suit in purple!  My freinds Mum had reached goal weight and the size 16 was just too big, but fits me nicely with a bit of room :D

So that is it, even if I loose more weight I think I will have it altered, but it is now too lucky to let go :D

Congrats Brainless.

I did look you up in the catalogue but run out of time to wonder round the rings.

Good to hear your girls news ...:-)

Pam

Congratulations and well done both of you

Kay

Congratulations to you both!  And now you have 6 months to work out if you will wear your "lucky suit" to the final, or splash out on something else ;)
bye
Gwen

Hopefully I can teach the little baggage a bit more decorum :D
She has inherited a lot from her mother including a wicked sense of humour and over enthusiasm in the ring.

Many Hearty congratulations!!
You must be thrilled, I bet you floated home :D

I love the colour purple, I show in purple/lavender too. Even my dogs lead has purple in it :D

Don't forget the lucky underwear too that you wore as you never know
what piece of clothing that bought you the good luck :D

Well done to you both, is that the secret then -get a lucky suit?  :D

Nikki

Oh don't say that you is forgetting our lovely lad, very much a part of my heart even if not domiciled here :D  Mind you wouldn't quite call it a run yet, more like a walk.

what is your secret for the weight loss i need to lose a bit
bye bye for now fiona

Weight Watchers and discovering that you can substitute crap with healthy things and be full.

As of today (weigh in day) I have lost 44lbs (3 stone 2 pounds) though that still makes me 12 stone 4.5lbs at only 5feet 4 inches tall :D

Actually it was Champdogs got me goingwith the talk of going for weight loss for summer, and a freind suggested I go with her and her Mum and that was it, on 1st of March became a Weight Watcher :D

ok ill have to look Weight Watchers up it sounds good thanks for telling me
bye bye for now fiona

CONGRATULATIONS just seen the post :) :)

Gina

brainless, ive just posted a post for you on general board,have a look!
love your new baby
really well done on your win!

Congratulation's!!!!!  Not been on much this week so only just read this WELL DONE to the both of you :d

Very well done. Only just seen this post but I did see your picture in DW today. Lexi looks absolutely gorgeous. You must be a very proud Mum :D

Little bit chuffed as it is a first for us.  I have a lot of little milestones in showing I haven't reached, and enjoy each new one very much.

I have now had my first first prize, first BPIB and BOB at all levels.  Then a Group place at Open show, a RBPIS, a RBIS. 

Then I had my first CC, first Champion, a place in the Group at Champ show, won a Champion stakes Heat and now a POTY Heat.

Lots of things to aspire to yet.  Maybe one day will get a BPIS or BIS at an Open show???

I am stil chuffed to bits with a first prize at a Companion show, so don't think I will ever become jaded, and to be honest even when I do nothing but have had a nice day out with freinds, I can enjoy their success just as well as my own :D

i think youll achieve all your ambitions & more,because whenever ive met you what comes across is your deep love & interest in your breed & a really good relationship between you & your dogs,you adore them & its obvious that they adore you!
