Cooper is a winner!

Cooper, Ecko and Reef were entered in a dog show this weekend.

Cooper showed on Saturday only (Julie had to work on Sunday) and took Winners Dog for his first two points! It was his first time in the ring with my friend Jennifer's daughter Shelby, who is an accomplished Junior handler. Cooper was pretty worried about the situation, but Shelby stayed calm and upbeat with him and they pulled off the win.

Ecko and Reef didn't fare as well on Saturday but basked in Cooper's reflected glory. On Sunday, Reef won his Open dog class and took Reserve Winners dog and Ecko won a competitive Bred-by class. No points for these two, but a nice consistent showing for the weekend from the three pups.
The puppy that took Winners Bitch on Sunday looks like she could be Ecko's sister doesn't she? Not related at all! This pretty pup is owned by Mara Hertzberg.

Reef & Ecko, relieved to be done with all the grooming for a while...
