Quincy(9 months), Jazz (8 months), Mocha (7 months)

This weekend we attended the first UKC show of the season here in TX.  Our puppies: Quincy (Anutta Commander and Chief), Jazz (Tintlet Rhapsody in Blue), and Mocha (Highview Double Mocha) all made their dog show debuts.  With UKC, you have 2 shows every day, so a total of 4 shows this weekend.  I’ll break the results down by day.

On Saturday:

Show ONE-  Jazz was Winner’s Bitch and Quincy was Winner Dog and Best of Winners.  Quincy showed like he owned the place and went into the group totally into the game.  He pulled out a Group 3 win!!

Show Two- Mocha was Winner’s Bitch and Quincy was Winners Dog and Best of Winners again!  Quincy was amazing and seemed to love the new game.

On Sunday: all the dogs were a little keyed up.  It was raining and we didn’t want messy poodle hair, so they were not able to play outside before the shows!

Show ONE- Jazz decided that she wanted me to show her instead of Heather (Quincy’s mommy) so she kept running towards me (I was handling Mocha) in the ring.  Both girls had to be in the same class as they are both puppies and I didn’t breed either of them.  Mocha was a little better than Jazz, so she won Winners Bitch.  Quincy was a live wire and forgot how to walk on the leash (haha!).  He pulled off Winners Dog but Mocha won Best of Winners.

Show Two- Mocha found her stride.  Jazz gave her a run for her money but was to focused on me instead of Heather.  The judge looked really hard at both girls having a very hard time deciding which to place first.  Mocha just moved better and so was Best Female.  Quincy again took Best Male, but Mocha beat him out for Best of Winners.  Quincy simply couldn’t concentrate on showing.  He wanted to go out and RUN and Splash in some puddles!!

I was able to snap a few shots of Quincy between rain showers.  It was cold, windy, and wet all weekend.

Quincy is Co-Owned, handled, and loved by Heather McQuiddy in San Antonio

Jazz is Co-owned by her breeder, Gloria Ogdahl of Tintlet Poodles.

The weekend was a roaring success!!  We are beat tired, but in a good way.  The next UKC show will be in mid February.  We are already looking forward to it!
