International Shows

[Dachshundrsq]

Well after a VERY tiring 2 days and 4 shows (Thank Goodness Sherry came to help me out) I believe I have 2 National/International Champion Adults, Dylan and Charity. I have one Baby International/National Champion, Cash..and 2 Jungsten International/National Champion. Faith and Indy.
The first day, Miss Faith, not even lead broke got Best Bred-By Puppy In Show at one of the shows that day and at the other show that day, Indy got Reserve Best Bred-By Puppy In Show.
The second day, Faith took Best Bred-By Puppy in Show and BEST PUPPY IN SHOW...I was Soooooo Proud. She was walking like a pro by the time we got to the Best In Show part of the Show. The Adults and Puppies are shown completely seperate from each other and then the bred-by exhibitors are shown after the regular classes. At each show everyone but Dylan got a V-1 rating, Dylan got 3-V1 ratings and 1-V2 rating. They give necklace type medallions instead of ribbons. I brought home 41 medallions, 20 of them were group placements. They only have 3 group placings, 1st (Gold) 2nd (Silver) and 3rd (Bronze). The little "cup" medallions car colored in Gold, Silver and Bronze. I think I have 6 groups 1sts, 7 group 2nds and 5 group 3rds.
(Hmmm that is only 18 if my math is correct...LOL) I know I counted 20 of them at one point. Here is a picture of the medallions...............
