Marianne and I had a fabulous weekend doing the dog show and making a weekend get away out of it. One of the dogs in our class was a no show so there were only dogs in our class. Saturday's course was pretty bad, but Charlie and I managed to get an 84 and a second place ribbon, giving Charlie is second leg. Sunday's course was much more "user friendly", but Charlie was got a burst of silly puppiness. He did manage to get an 86, with 3rd place, earning his 3rd leg for his Rally Novice Title. GO CHARLIE!! We are very proud!!. Charlie won't even be 2 years old until Jan. 11th and he already has a title. Gracie kicked butt today in the Rally ring, earning the blue ribbon with a score of 97!! Way to go Marianne and Gracie!! So Gracie now has 2 legs towards her title.
We had a great stay at the Comfort Inn on Laurens Road in Greenville, SC. I would recommend this hotel to all. They even had a shower that was better than home...you know that had to be good!
Charlie had his first visit to Petsmart today and found the store to be very exciting! He was especially facinated with the aquariums. I think Charlie likes going shopping.
We had dinner at Tim and Mickie's place Saturday evening. It was delicious. Charlie loves Tim, but Tim's cat does not love Charlie, or Gracie!
Of course we have ribbons and new toys. Charlie was more concerned with getting dinner than having his picture taken with his ribbons. He was very tired tonight. I took his picture with all the ribbons he has earned, then he got up, and took his elephant, and went to bed.
Other important events....Marianne's 15th birthday!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MARIANNE! You are one special girl!!!

I see you waited for Charlie to go to sleep then laid out all his ribbons. Clever tactic. You know he is a titled obedience dog now so you could just put him in a sit stay.
I am so proud of you guys!!! Way to go!! I love the way Charlie has you display his ribbons. It's very exhausting work you know! Hooray for you and Charlie!
It was an exciting weekend. We had fun. Charlie was too tired for a sit stay, so we went for the sleeping tactic with the ribbons. :)
Way to go all four of you! I was waiting for updates with aunt lisa, half the day. sounds sad i know. I'll have to see about coming to visit and staying in that hotel, i wonder what they think about rabbits, make it a weekend with a bunny show nearby . . .
Hooray! Well done! I wish I could have seen you folks in the ring with Charlie and Gracie. Marianne, I just knew you and Gracie would do well this time. Congratulations!!!
