Ripley Show Thread

[Rits]

In my bra, in my pocket, hell I'd store slimey liver treats In my sock, just not in my mouth.

At least it's not mastiff slobber.

At least it's not mastiff slobber.

I'm sure they are great dogs, but I don't even want to touch one they are so slobbery!

 

[JanS]

I'll stick with a treat pouch or my pocket, thank you. I know many professional handlers stuff their cheek full but I'd start drooling and that would be worse. LOL

We have a back to back doberman specialty tomorrow (2 separate chances for points). 60 dobermans entered each show! (usual count is ~15 lately...)
5 point majors on both sides (the max points you can get).

Pray that the show gods smile upon Ripley and Paula and award her at least ONE of the 2 majors she needs to finish her CH. This will probably be the last chance for majors around here until the fall.


I made a nice little ad for them both... Ripley and Derek ad coming soon.

Good Lyck!!!
Haha!! Was a typo but just couldn’t change that. Maybe it will break some tension out there.

 

[Kaiser2016]

Good luck!

 

[JanS]

Good luck! That is a huge Doberman entry but she'll do great!

 

[Rits]

Well she placed in both shows in her large class but no luck on points. We didn't expect to place at all with the first judge (judge change) and placed higher with the second. Not 1st and not WB so big bummer...but nice regardless for a specialty. Derek and her will try again in the fall.

 

[Ravenbird]

But you showed up and I'm sure she looked her best. We know Rip is a great dog and what you have under the roof with you is all that matters in the longest run. Big love and A for effort!

Heading your way.

Loved seeing you guys, and thanks for answering all my questions. Ripley looked beautiful!

But you showed up…..gotta go fishing to catch fish.

Y’all put in a lot of work- great job!!

 

[JanS]

Out of that many entries that's still pretty damn good. It comes down to a really fine line when there a ton of nice ones and a lot is dependent on each judge. I've seen results totally flip from one day to another with different judges.

 

[Rits]

I'M SO EXCITED to share the news!!!

Saturday in Madison, WI out of the Open Black class, Ripley and Derek won WB for a FIVE POINT MAJOR (she won over 36 bitches), and then BOW (over 9 additional dogs, totaling over 45 dogs!!!), under judge Ms. Jan C. Sigler at the Illini Doberman Pinscher Specialty as an Owner Handler!!!!!!

WB = Winner's bitch. All the 1st place girls from each class compete against one another to see who the judge feels meets the breed standard the closest.

BOW = Best of Winners. The Winners Dog and Winners Bitch get to go back in the breed ring and compete against one another (and potentially all the specials, which are Champions and Grand Champions) to see who earns BOW.

One more major to go until her Championship! She only needed two 3 pt majors (less girls won over for a 3 pt) but I guess Ripley wanted to win a big one! And at a specialty so we got really pretty ribbons!
