Omaha Dog Show

Jack got his first point this weekend in Omaha! He took winners dog! I'm still trying to catch up on all the dog show lingo, so I hope that is right. I handled him for the second time, and for the first time all on my own. It was a little crazy trying to figure out what exactly to do and when to do it, but luckily all of the other Berner handlers were very nice and helpful. All 5 of us had a blast in Omaha for the weekend. Lemon was very tired by the second day and was definitely lagging during her show time. Hilga got to see Kathy and a lot of the people who knew her back in Des Moines before she came to live with us! They were all happy to see her with her tail wagging! Jack was wonderful and beautiful as always! Unfortunately, we didn't get very many pictures since Chris was handing off dogs to me and it was all very confusing. But, here are the pictures we did get:
