We showed Victory and Vegas in San Marcos on Saturday and Sunday.  We did not have any success on Saturday under judge Luis Sosa, but both Vic and Vegas showed beautifully, and I was very proud of them.  On Sunday, Vegas took winners bitch and best of opposite sex.  Sharon Boyd showed Victory, since Vegas was also in best of breed class.  Victory did not show well for Sharon, so did not place.  We need to work on his movement, as he continues to move like he is marching when in the ring, as he gets quite jazzed up at dog shows.  Lovely guy, but gets pretty wired at the shows.   He does beautifully at home, but dog shows are another story with him.  He has way too much fun!  Here is cute little Vegas in San Marcos.
Rog and Luke also received an award recently.  The Kaufman Chamber gave them and a group of other fine men, including our neighbor Lanny Mayo, and friend Frankie Vrzalik, the Humanitarian award for their work in restoring a beautiful angel in the Kaufman cemetery that was damaged by vandals.  The angel was on a large pedestal, probably about 5 feet tall, and then the angel itself was between 5 and 6 feet tall.  It was knocked of its pedestal, the head was broken off, the wings were damaged and broken, and there were many other pieces broken on it.  They worked together to repair it and restore it to its place of honor on its pedestal in the cemetery.  I am proud of them!  Here is their picture with the award plaque and a picture of the men receiving their awards at the chamber banquet.
