Key City Show in St Peter-Walker goes Best of Breed both days!!

Last weekend (May 23-24) we went to the Key City Kennel Club show in St Peter, MN. It was a nice weekend with just a little rain Saturday morning and moderate temperatures. We had Walker entered and friends entered a couple of Lily's puppies (Odin and Bijou).

One year ago we entered the first Tamarack bred litter of puppies and they had a great show. Walker (CH Tamarack Northern Bogwalker) started his show career with a bang taking Best of Winners both days for his first 4 points. He finished his Championship at St Paul in January at 13 months and he is coming back to St Peter as a an AKC Champion. This year he was entered as special and took Best of Breed over another special and the other class entries both days. He had fun, looked good and enjoyed his time in the group ring. He even got a good strong look on Sunday from judge Mr. Joe Walton.

Odin (Tamarack North Star) took Best of Winners on Saturday and picks up another point toward his Championship. Odin is off to Fargo, North Dakota for shows this upcoming weekend.

Bijou (Tamarack Jewel of the North) looked great taking reserve winners both days.

The St Peter show is a fun show for us as it is not too far from home and we have a great time. Sunday evening we had a little get together barbecue with friends at our house and we played with puppies. It was a nice evening of socializing and puppy fun.

Maya's puppies will go to their new homes in a couple of weeks. They get their pictures taken tonight and they go to the vet for shots on Wednesday. Lily is looking and acting as if her time to whelp puppies is very close. She was getting her pads arranged just so in the whelping box last night. It is probably less than a week before we have new puppies again.
