edited November 2014 in General
40 plus dogs in each show with 6 or the 8 breeds present = total success.

  • It was awesome to see everyone..so many beautiful Nihon Ken. :) I didn't know you guys were there with Sora in the morning @toshi! She's so cute :)
  • @mdokic yea we were there in the morning, sora was the class clown so to speak lol. But it was fun none the less. Saw sooo many pretty dogs and met awesome people.
  • Nice pictures!! I heard Sora totally had a blast haha, which is a win for everyone! :)
  • Sora was so cute in the ring.
  • @toshi. Sora was absolutely adorable bouncing all over the ring:). I wish you could've stayed for the second show. The second judge was completely opposite of the first.
  • @mdokic thanks @sjp051993 @crimson02 sora is never like that -I was in shock and a little embarrassed. In my head im thinkin reaaally sora...in the ring but...you have your cgc. Haha . Great seeing u guys.

  • Aw- I think LeAnne rocked the costume contest- hands down! :) and I mean down- to the socks on her and her akita!
  • Great photos! Can I use a couple of my pups on my FB page?

    No doubt that if it was a human + dog costume contest than a dog costume contest, Leanna would have won hands-down. Maybe next year there can be both? :-)
  • Ah! I'm so sad I missed the costume contest! So many cute outfits.

    Love the pictures @zandrame, as always! :D

    Once I saw LeAnna on her way to the ring, I busted out laughing knowing assuredly she was the one that was going to win.

  • The costume contest was fantastic! Never seen *so many* people crowded around the ring taking photos. It was sure popular.
  • Here is the smugmug photo dump link. Please feel free to add your photos here, I have unlimited storage.

  • So many great dogs! It's really cool to see multiple Shikoku in one place, which I think I've only seen pictures of one other time :)

    @mdokic I love Kimber in all of these pictures. She's just like "HEYYYYY what's going on over here, who are you? I'm just going to sit here and hang out and look around. This is interesting!" haha :D
  • @cezieg, Kimber is Miss. Happy-go-lucky derpderp. lol. i love her.

    There are so many shikoku here! just come to so cal! :P
  • Here are the results for the two shows. I'll be releasing a pdf with full placements later this will cover just the main awards. If you guys can do me a favor and then post photos with the winners listed here that way people can put a dog to a name :)

    I looked at this and was very confused, so I've reorganized the list above by classes, champions, altered, etc. Dogs who received multiple awards in multiple classes are listed multiple times (rather than just listing their highest award, or only some of their awards). Within each section, the dogs are sorted by highest award earned. I've also included group placements and call names. Sorry if I got the call name wrong.
