Dog Show

There is a local Dog Show held here on Memorial Day.

The handlers need to be kids. Our neighbors don't have any kids - but they do have a dog (Gavin) whom we really love. Gavin also loves Emily. So when they asked if Emily would be interested in taking him in the show we were delighted.

They have adorable categories like "Best Ears", "Best Trick" and "Most Mysterious Heritage."


Emily and Gavin were in a few categories.


But the one they were most hopeful for was "Best Trick" - Emily had been practicing with Gavin the week before.


They worked well together.


And ended up winning first place in that one!


Thanks Gavin for being our friend & for giving Emily "practice."

Well done Emily.

That's very good, Emily. I do like an obedient dog (says she who has minded Henry for a week ...) Henry has been very good on the whole and we have been surprised at times by the things he has learned. He is still rather partial to the odd sock or shoe which has been inadvertently left within his reach.

That's a really fun idea. Good job Emily!
