Dog Shows


Today we took Chippy to a dog show in Concord, NC. It really wasn't much fun. The drive up was over two hours of Chippy drooling on me (she was sitting in my lap), then the show itself was absolutely packed. It was a major in whippet entries, so the competition was pretty fierce. Chippy was not thrilled about walking through the crowds and wasn't happy about the dog show in general. She showed pretty well but we were placed last in the class. I didn't feel like we deserved that but, having watched the classes before, I wasn't surprised. I would have placed the classes completely opposite of how the judge placed them. So we left pretty much immediately because Chippy was unhappy with the crowds and I was unhappy with being dumped.
