Leo's Excellent Adventure, Day Three!


I FINALLY got a few moments to update Leo's blog with all the pictures from the show back in March!! Above is my absolute favorite. While I was in the ring running around with the dog, I had asked our friends Carla and Michelle to see if they could shoot some photos for me with my camera. One of them caught a GREAT shot of Leo headed around the turn in the ring--you see it here up above!

There are so many pictures...get ready for a long post on this one!! As usual, just click on the photos for the bigger versions.

First off, you may remember that the first day of the show is NEVER Leo's "good day"! He is always so bouncy that he is useless his first show. Remembering this, we'd skipped the first show of the day in the hopes that by the time I got him down there for show two he may have worked off some energy. NOPE! Instead, we got our butts handed to us by a really cute little puppy!! Here he is with his proud owner, Carla, in puppy Group competition:


And below you see him looking up at us with the deadly "Cute Face" that he used to charm the judges ALL WEEKEND! May I present Ender, truly a force to behold! He is also Leo's half-brother; they were both sired by Acer. :)



Now we need to put up some pictures of Leo's sister, Sunny! They are littermates. You can see how much Sunny loves her human, Liz, and how much Liz loves her Sunny!



Here they are running in the ring! Sunny has beautiful movement; she really gave Leo a run for his money! One judge made us run around the ring together several times because she just couldn't decide who was better!



So Day Three passed and Ender was victorious, beating Sunny in Show One and both Sunny and Leo in Show Two! How would it go the next day, we wondered? Would Puppy Cuteness reign supreme?? There was only one way to find out!
