And I’m home, a mere 20 hours after I drove out of the show grounds at Sioux Falls. “Hey”, I convinced myself, “since I’m getting away late anyway, no point in stopping.” 15 hours of driving, 5 hours of intermittent naps and my show season is finished for ’08.
Out of our efforts (with a little help from some friends and co-owners!) the following dogs gained titles this year –
Am.Can.Ch.Minuteman Amore
Am.Can.Ch.Minuteman I Love Lucy
Am. Ch. Minuteman Love Letters
Can.Ch.Minuteman Tabasco Cat
Am.Can.Ch.Minuteman Dead Cat Bounce
Am.Ch.Minuteman Special Talent
Can.Ch.Minuteman Talent Scout
And the “hitchhikers”:
Am.Can.Ch.Kampfer’s Tainted Sunshine
Am.Can.Ch. Schnauzees U Snuz U Luz
Just so you know that when I’m out on the road, there’s not much time spent sipping pina coladas at poolside.

Kate
Congrants on a successful show season. A tally rye and coke is in order.
Syncro

A humble suggestion for your next champ: “Minuteman Cat Scratch Fever”.
Congratulations, Kate, to you and your pack. A howling sucess!
Congratulations, Kate. I like Texas Canuck’s suggestion — and Ted Nugent is even a conservative and believer in the Second Amendment.
“Just so you know that when I’m out on the road, there’s not much time spent sipping pina coladas at poolside.”
Congrats, Kate. And you ought to make the time to sip a pina colada or two, and sniff the roses. Life’s too short not to. 🙂
Congrats Kate! And wow! Travelling so far with that many dogs must be easier than travelling with kids!
Congratulations, Kate, and doggies!
Welcome home–and just in time, before the snow flies.
You go Kate – congrats — love the name “Dead Cat Bounce”
Sorry, somehow I missed that you were in Sioux Falls. I would have been honored to have a coffee with you. Nonetheless, congratulations on a safe trip home.
Just how big is that “truck”? (mental image of “litter nap methodology”)
Glad that all the champions are safe and sound at home.
Especially those that can type.
