First Rosette

On Sunday 48/08/2009 we went to Scrufts at Saltwell Park in Gateshead. I planned to enter Lily in the show, just for fun. Since I eventually would like to show her, I thought it’s a nice practise for both of us. I entered her in two categories “cutes dog” and “best puppy”. I think Lily is gorgeous and thought she might have a chance to win. The first competition she was in was “Cutes dog” and she won, I was pretty pleased, I know it was a just for fun competition but still she won and there were actually breeders there with their dogs, to use it as practise too, so I was not the only one. Lily’s friend Jay won “scruffiest dog” (not that he is scruffy at all) and then it was on for “best puppy”. There were about 25 pups entered and Lily ended up becoming 2^nd and got another rosette. Because Lily won cutes dog, we had to stay to the end for the Best in show. There were six dogs in total but Lily didn’t get under the first 3. Well it would have been a bit strange for a 13 week old pup to win Best in Show.

Needless to say, I was very pleased with the overall outcome.
