HI - a have a little trumpet I'd like to blow.

On the 12th April my Layla - Ch Aslan Sensationalism - was awarded Best in Show at a *tiny* country all breeds show. However - the ribbon doesn't say how many dogs were there - it just says BEST IN SHOW - and that's good enough for me.

Well Done

As you say, its not the numbers there, but the award that counts. Keep up the good work!

 

[Lydia]

Congratulations, it's lovely to receive top honours, have you stopped grinning yet!

Well done Lana, its a great buzz isnt it

 

[dessie]

Well done Lana. Just out of interest, what do you call "tiny" though??? The UK is pretty 'tiny' compared to Australia!

 

[aslan]

This was miniscule. It was in the outback of my state, 14 hrs away from the coast where I live. A very large ming town but not a large dog show fraternity. I drove there to deliver a pup as I couldn't get a direct flight for him and thought I would do a show there as well to break the trip. I don't want to say how many dogs - 'cause you will all laugh. :b 'Specially seeing that at your SYWC I went to there were 240 whippets alone!!!! Let me just say there were fewer dogs than that and this was an all-breeds show. I did say it was only a little trumpet I was blowing - actually it's probably a piccolo.

 

[dessie]

LOL!! That is not the spirit Lana you must have PMA (Positive Mental Attitude)........even if there was only two of you, you still beat the other one!!!

 

[Lydia]

LOL, I'm glad you explained what PMA is Dessie, for a moment I thought it was something to do with pms......

Still very well done Lana, the judge on the day preferred yours, over all the over breeds, so it isn't a piccolo, or a trumpet, more a tuba sized win!

Well done.

OH don't get me wrong - I'm proud - very proud - But I also realise that other dogs get bests in show at MUCH bigger shows.

IF you'll allow me to do a little brag - that was her second Best in Show - She has also had one at an Open Show and she has also had a Reserve in Show at a decent sized all breeds show. She has been Whippet of the Year in our local pointscore comp twice. She is only 3 years old - I think she has a bright future. She's my shining light anyway.

 

[Karen]

I think she looks really good Lana and can easily understand how she could take BIS. She would do well over here Im sure.

 

[aslan]

Thank you so much Karen! That's my "warm-fuzzy" for the day

Congratulations Lana on your BIS with Layla- doesn't matter how big or small- a BIS is a BIS. Hope to see you down in Sthn Qld soon.

Regards

Gary and Jo
