6-9 Puppy dogs

6 - 9 Bitches: Evan's computer locked up, so he went to look at puppies and left me here to man the announcers table and write up some notes.  He also left his box of See's Candies next to me (a big mistake).  We just started the 6-9 puppy bitch class.  Of 19 entered, there are p being shown.  Cappy has settled into a routine; she brings them all in, checks numbers, takes them around as a group, then does individuals, and then starts placing them. 
 
First up for individuals is Leslie and California Dreamin.  Next is JoAnee with No Need to Say Anything More.  Next is George with Hercules.  Next is Kent with Jay-Z.  I am starting to hear a few whistles and cowbells – it has been relatively quiet up to now, but the crowd is starting to get interested.  Next is Liz with Emerson.  Next is Channing with Dezi Arnaz.  Dezi seems to have a cheering section in the bleachers.  Next is Diane with I Like Ike.  Next is JR with Jacksondel.  And the final bitch is Flashpoint.
 
She split the class in two and is watching the first half go around.  And then the second half.  And back to the first half.  And back to the second half.  And now she has both groups stacked (but staggered).  She pulled California Dreamin and Jay-Z from the first group; but is having trouble deciding on the second group.  Looks like she is keeping Emerson, Desi, I Like Ike, and Jacksondel from the second group.  Cappy has combined the groups and is looking at the entire group of 6.  All of the dogs are still in numerical order; she keeps looking, but so far has not moved any placings.
 
She just moved Desi to third, and then put I Like Ike ahead of Desi.  And that's the way they finish.  California Dreamin, Emerson, I Like Ike and Desi Arnaz.
 
That's it.  Thanks to Tony for the help while I went with Flower Boy to look at Titan.
