Sunday before the Great Dane Nationals

Sunday Daniel and I took Dahlia and Sadie to Chattanooga, TN for the N. Central Florida Specialty that was being held before the GDCA National Convention. There were nearly 300 dogs there and the atmosphere was electric! Dahlia and Sadie nearly pulled my arms off trying to get into the building. When we got inside the building, most of the boys were finished showing and we were just in time to watch the puppy girls go into the ring. When it was Dahlia's turn to go into the ring, her gramma Jackie (Her Daddy's owner) took her in. They had broken the 9-12 month class into three groups and took the top 3 from each group to judge for the ribbons. I was nervous watching her, but I soon realized there was nothing to be nervous about. Dahlia placed 3rd in her group and went in to the final 9-12 month class. Jackie did a great job and Dahlia looked ON! When all was said and done, Dahlia placed 4th out of 18 in the class putting her into the ribbons! She looked beautiful!

Sadie went into the ring next. Her Auntie Yvonne handled her for me and did a great job! Sadie made the cut in her group and got a chance to compete in the main 12-18 month ring. She looked really nice and made me so proud! In the end, she didn't place, but had a great time all the same.

We will be going back to Chattanooga friday to compete again at the National show. Wish Us Luck!!

My Baby is Coming to Visit!

My Dahlia is coming up tomorrow with her auntie Camille!  I can't wait to see my baby.  I haven't seen Dahlia since she was only like 4 mos old.  Camille says she is a lot like Lily, so I really want to see my girl.   Sadie and Harley will also be visiting.  Lots of Dane kisses!
