Sunday, July 1
Kettle Moraine Kennel Club
Judge: Gary BassettMendel - 2nd Open Dog (He showed beautifully. I could not have been happier with him. He moved out well, gave me a nice straight down & back, and gave it everything he had on the last go-around. A handful of exhibitors commented on how great he looked, I was very proud to be taking that one home with me regardless of our placement.)
Auntie Annika won Best of Opposite Sex.
