Carmen

Checking in from Pennsylvania, with a few positive results – the chief among them First Award of Merit for Am.Can.Ch.Minuteman Madrid.

In fact, the final lineup here at Hatboro (day 2) of Best of Breed, Best of Winners, Best of Opposite Sex all had Minuteman breeding behind them.
Everyone hates us, which is as it should be.

  1. Even after you explained it to us a while back Kate, I still don’t REALLY understand the scoring system, but it sounds like you are being successful!! lol
    Grats!

  2. Well done Kate…you are going to become a Canadian legend…and you do us all proud.

  3. Whether or not it’s “as it should be”, it’s what you’re used to, anyhow huh Kate?

  4. Congratulations!!! Job well done but I still can not picture one of them swimming back to me with a Canada Goose softly lodged in his jaws.

  5. Ah! everyone loves to hate a winner…
    Except for Liberals and their running dogs who hate anyone who might be getting the marrow in the bone.
    …they also hate for the sheer love of it!
    Cheers Kate…you obviously work hard, therefore you Should get.

  6. Everytime I see that type of breed I can’t help but wonder how they would look sans moustache.

  7. can you make the dog do that pose without the leash?
    jeez Kate, you never hear of Photoshopping??? LOL !!!
    excellent looking animal. good hair cut too.

  8. There’s a P.G. Wodehouse bit about a terrier who looks like an angry Scottish Presbyterian minister, denouncing Sin from the pulpit. Carmen kind of has that going on – in a cute way.

  9. I don’t know whether it helps, but just so you know; if they hate you Kate, they hate us too.
    As for Presbyterian Fear-of-the-Lord, we could all use some: The sinners burning in Hell call out “Lord, Lord, we did nae ken!” To which God replies:
    “Ah weel, ye ken noo!”

  10. The only thing I know abt pedigree dogs I learned from watching The Best in Show.
    Every time you post, Kate, I am reminded of Gerry Fleck showing the winner.
    Terrific looking doggie, and I hope you keep your shoes on the right feet and not embarrass him.

  11. Congratulations Kate!
    It’s unfortunate that success is often despised by those who don’t understand risk and criticism.

  12. I do believe I see a smile n that face. Kind of resembles a Sergeant-Major I knew once. You could not tell when he was smiling either.

  13. gee Kate, I thought it was only leftards that hate you but it appears as though the hatred is a little more widespread. LOL
    Horny Toad

  14. curious_george: “anybody know what the Ch. stands for?”
    Going out on a limb here … but I suspect Ch.

  15. Congratulations, Kate.
    In which part of PA were you? We are west of Philly about an hour.

  16. Just adding my 2 cents to the congatulations here!! Beautiful dog! You are stting the standard there with your ‘Minuteman’ breed.
    On another blog you were invited to the London ON tea party with Kathy Shaidle…which as the crow or seagull flies is not too far from Pennsylvania.Hope you made it.

  17. SHE really looks like a “Badger daughter” in that photo. Great picture!
    Nice wins. (Of course, I expected as much…).
