January 3, 2009Garrison Arena, Pendleton, SC
Tessa and I drove to Pendleton, SC today to support Tessa's half-brother Porter, seen here on the left, who was shown for the first time. Porter is 7 months old and pretty dignified compared to my wild child. Tessa did her best to loosen him up some and eventually succeeded.
We also met Tessa's sister Tink (seen on the left with Jon), who will be introduced to the show ring in Atlanta in a few weeks. Tessa, Tink and Porter all came from Jubilee in Columbus, GA; they share the same sire, Fieldfine Jubilee Goldn Opportunity (Chance). My plans for Tessa were mainly to work her in different venues including field trials but we had fun at the dog show and who knows, we may join in one day - once she has acquired the necessary manners. In the meantime, we will visit with and support the Jubilee and Fieldfine GSPs, and get some exposure in the process.
Porter came home with a few ribbons but no points because there was basically no competition. No Best In Show either, of course, for our pups, but to me, they were the best ones of the show. Hands down.
Tessa is getting some secret advice from Jon.
