I’m so excited!! My big day is nearly here, this Saturday is my first time to enter a dog show, that’s only 2 sleeps away, woohoo!!
It’s not only show day, but it’s also going to be my first family re-union. My brother Eric and sister Molly are also going to be there at the show in Napa, I’m going to be competing against them and I hear they’ve already got a blue ribbon (I think that’s pretty good!)…….plus there’s a rumour that my dad may be competing too, so I will get to meet him…..AND…..my breeder said she may bring my mum to say hello, what a re-union that would be, someone needs to bring the camera!

| My brothers and sisters!! I was the biggest, I wonder if I still am? |
My biggest concern about the show is whether mum is ready……we went to our last show class on Tuesday night and I have to say, I think mum was getting more instruction than me, she says it’s like learning to drive as there’s so much to remember! (I wouldn’t know about that!) I think it’s quite easy all this show stuff, all I have to do is stand around and walk for a bit, oh and I think my hair has to look nice and I have to smile at the judge and show them my teeth……:) When I’m not doing that I get to play with all the other dogs……cooool!!

Good luck Snoopy! I'm sure you and mom will do great!
Snoopy,It,s brother Eric.This show stuff is a piece of cake for us beardies, it's our people who get all stressed out!The way the entries are at this show either you or I will win our class,and get" Winners Dog". That means one of us will get 1 point toward our championship.We need 15 points to get our championship. Grandma Jean is bringing our easy-up tent,and a nice bottle of wine for our people to celebrate after we compete. Maybe we can sneek some for ourselves! Love ya dude, Eric. P.S Remind your mum to bring some fold up chairs.
Helen, thanks for the support, I'll pass on your message to mum too!
Hi Eric Bro, I'm so looking forward to seeing the old gang on Saturday, will make sure they pack some chairs and maybe some extra treats for us!! Yay!
Hey, Snoopy Dog — your Beardie Bud Turner here. I got to go to lots of shows too when I was a youngster (I'm a very mature 15 mths now!) I even pooped in the ring once just so the Judge could see what I'm really made of!!! She gave me a ginormous ribbon for that :} Good luck to you and your mates!
Snoopy, Your buddy Turner is a mighty fine looking young dog. His daddy Mr. Baggins is the reason your daddy Louie is now #2 in the nation instead of #1 which is was for awhile. As your breeder/grandma, I'm glad you have puppy pal like Turner to give you sound advice.I might be interested in talking with Turners parents about a possible future date with him and your mom Snickers Ch.Springhill's bootscootn'boogie. Love,Jean- Glenwood bearded collies.
Hey Turner, great to hear from you………you really made me laugh with your story, so what are you saying? If it looks like I won't get a ribbon I need to do a poop in the ring!? Tee hee
Hi Snoopy
This is April, remember me I'm your youngest sister. I am going to be at the Napa dog show and get my second blue ribbon. Daddy gets so excited about those silly ribbons. I hope you get a blue one to. Eric already has one then we would all be equal, except that I will have 2. It will be a lot of fun to see you.
Hey April, I don't understand about these ribbons yet, what do you do with them if you get one? I hope you don't put them in your hair! I can only just cope with mum putting a hair clip in my hair to keep it out of my eyes! See you soon lil sis!
