Todays update is a Malinois update. There will be more Boston pictures tomorrow. We had a day out and went to the Northern Belgian Shepherd Dog Championship Show leaving the puppies in Robins capable hands.
In the morning Ruby and Saffy were entered in the obedience class. Saffy went first and did some very nice heelwork, and just losing a few marks on this and her retrieve.
Next was Ruby and she also did a very nice round, again not losing many marks so when I checked their scores they were tying for first place.
I assumed Saffy would not do her stays as she has had a problem with these recently but they both did their stays perfectly so we had to do a run off to see who would get first place. We did a recall to decide and Ruby did hers almost perfectly but Saffy forgot herself and instead of sitting in front of me she bounced up and hit me in the stomach with her paws, so the final result was Ruby first and Saffy second.
After lunch we did the breed Judging. Lily was in the puppy class and she won that, then Saffy came third in Post Grad and finally Ruby came 5th in the open class. All of the dogs had very nice critiques and were all graded excellent. The Lily had to challenge for best puppy and she won that too so was awarded Best Malinois Puppy in Breed.
Ruby was awarded a very nice shield for her obedience and Lily had a silver rose bowl for being best puppy.
