First show had 107 entries, mostly solids for everyone as well as for me. Last year I had a lot of brokens, this year mostly solids. Looking at the carriers of 14, only 2 were brokens. Last year and this I've had mostly bucks but now starting to get does... finally! Best part is I really like the ones I'm getting too.
Here is how they did:
Solid Sr Bucks - 1st and 3rd out of 17 (Cowan's Frasier)
Solid Sr. Does - 1st, 2nd and 11th out of 17 (BBF's Rozalynn)
Solid Jr Bucks - 4th, 6th, 10-12 out of 18
Solid Jr Does - 1st and 3rd out of 11 (BBF's Over the Edge)
Broken Sr Bucks - 1st and 2nd out of 12 (BBF's Hot Button and BBF's J.T.)
SSB took BOB, SJD took BOSG and BSB took BOG. The SJD, "BBF's Over the Edge" was just shy of 4 mos. and 2nd place "BBF's Penny" just shy of 3 mos.
BOB was Cowan's Frasier who also took Reserve in Show out of probably 26 breeds that were up. He won for us a handy directors chair in a bag with club logo and RIS spelled out on the back.
Show B had 87 entries, jr classes didn't change much in #'s.
Solid Sr Bucks - 2nd and 5th out of 12
Solid Sr. Does - 1st, 4th and 5th out of 11 (BBF's Blue Sapphire)
Solid Jr Bucks - 2nd, 3rd, 5th, 8th, 9th out of 18
Solid Jr Does - 1st and 2nd out of 11
Broken Sr Bucks - 1st and 2nd out of 9 (BBF's Hot Button & BBF's J.T.)
SSD was BOSG. No higher wins but glad to leave at 1:30 a.m. and not wait for BIS. Grand Champed out two Sr does. Now will probably breed 2 of them and show the also ran another time. The same jr doe got 2 legs first time out, so a great start for her.
To me showing the juniors is the most fun. The Srs you pretty much have in your mind exactly what you think of them, usually no surprises. This was the first show for some jrs. Considering that, the heat and commotion in a busy, crowded showroom they did very well. Both judges were able to pose them well and that sure helps.
Got home just before 4 a.m. driving thru the fog, but at least little traffic at that hour. Put everybunny to bed and a late supper for them.
