We decided to expand our horizons by attending some shows put on by registries other than AKC. The first show was the IABCA show on March 1-2, 2008. These shows are judged like a European show, where dogs must accumulate three V-1 (excellent) cards to obtain a Championship. The judge also provides a written evaluation of each dog. We took Pirate and Sadie, and we are proud to announce that both finished their International Championships. They both earned four V-1 cards, with wonderful comments from the judges. The next weekend we took them to a UKC show. Pirate took BOB at the first show, and went on to win a Group 3. Sadie took BOB at the next three shows, with a Group 3 along the way, which completed her UKC Championship.

Sadie is now AKC/Intl./UKC CH Omegan’s Make Me an Angel.

Pirate is now Intl. CH Omegan’s Fire The Cannnons RN HCT.

We will post their show photos when we get them.
