Bones and I had another dog show this weekend. On Saturday we took first place in our class. On Sunday we took another first place in our class and then moved up to the winners ring. We took reserve winner! This was very exciting for me--Bones sire, Tucker took winners dog. We had a great time and I was able to meet Krista from Mt. View kennels and also Mrs. Linda (Garlins kennels) and Lauren (Castleway kennels). They were really nice ladies and I enjoyed our visit. I recieved several very nice comments about Bones and everyone seems to think he is a natural in the show ring. He has the "show attitude" and loves to strut his stuff. He just turned 7 months old and has started off really well---hopefully it won't take me long to finish him. I also LOVE the showing! I still enjoy showing the rabbits as well and am extremely pleased in how our litters are turning out. We just put in 6 more nestboxes today. I have a couple of litters that are almost ready to wean and will be adding some more bunnies to my sales page in the next couple of weeks.
With everything that we have going on right now, I have also decided to sell some of the critters. I have 7 piggies, a pair of chinese hamsters, a pair of russian dwarf hamsters, 3 rats, a beige female chinchilla and (I can't believe I'm doing this), I am also offering Itzy--the female hedgie for sale. If you know of anyone interested in any of the above animals, send them my way. I wanted to start a small pet shop, but just don't have the time anymore.
It's been really hot in our area lately and thank goodness we have the A/C in the rabbitry...however I think I need to get a bigger one for next summer.
Other than that, not much going on....I added a picture of a shiz tu (not sure of the spelling) that was getting groomed before the show....I thought he was the most adorable thing so I thought I would share.
Hope all is well with your families and you are in our thoughts and prayers...
