This past weekend was a fun weekend for dog showing, as we attended the Twin Peaks Kennel Club’s UKC shows.  There were 5 shows, one on Friday, and two on Saturday and Sunday.  Sadie did very well taking 5 Best of Breeds, a Group 3 and three Group 4′s.  Pirate also did well, finishing his UKC Championship by taking Best of Winners at the first two shows.  We are very proud of these two dogs who have excelled in conformation rings in three different venues (AKC, UKC, and IABCA).

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.

Sadie, Ch. Omegan’s Make Me An Angel, finished in style at the Rocky Mountain Cluster in Denver, CO. She took Winners Bitch the first day for a 3 pt. major, Reserve Winners Bitch the second day, Winners Bitch/Best of Winners/Best of Opposite Sex the third day to finish her championship, and then Best of Opposite Sex her first time out as a Special! She also got her first leg of her Rally Novice title. Shadow also got the first leg of his Rally Excellent title at this show.
