What a great end of the show

There go the dogs and some fantastic ones in there.  First is All with Are You talking to me.  Next is Chicago, then Journey, now up is Broken Arrow, and now we have Johnnie Black, now that is a powerful all Black, Then Galaxy,   Next up is Raven, and I have to admit, some great dogs here, and better than normal, up now is Who Dat, now Aregon, and he should get a raise out of the crowd, and not what I expected.  He is a real Stallion dog.  Last is Cyutas another all black with JR.
 
I will have to double Red Squirrel, and so I will ask Tony to post.
 
Bob wants to see the males as individuals.  No reason for me to post what is going on, and you can look above to see what dogs are going through the individuals. For those of you who have never shown a dog, he does a loose lead temperament test, then teeth, coming and going, and a trip around.  He does the same thing with them all.
 
He split the class 10 and 10, ten dogs and eight bitches and the Winners, so 10 in each group.
 
Kevin Renolds is in front of us, and Tedi just came by to say how good Red Squirrel looked. I want her to do that on Saturday. I expect she will.
 
Tony won the raffle, so he won't talk to me any more. I hope he gets over it before tomorrow.  We are running way late, and the judges seminar has been going on, the reception was supposed to be now, and he crowd seems to like Who Dat.  I see Pat and Celeste Draper are here.  They are upset because they are in front in Specials at the National, and Kirk is last.  How does that work?  Last dog out there now.
 
They all stack and Bob walks down the line looking at who can pose the dog the best.  He takes them all around the ring together.  He walks down the line and sends a dog to the corner Chicago, the Johnnie Black, then Galixie, and he looks them over and pulls Who Dat.  He has six left, and goes to Aragon, so he must be taking his keepers.  Then there were five.  He watches each one he pulls and excuses the five still standing.  He now goes to look at his keepers, and tells them to stand aside.
 
He pulls the bitches out (8 of them), and they go around.  First as a group, and then individually.  Next is individuals.  Starting to hear the crowd talk about happy hour at the hotel has already started; the hospitality was supposed to start now; and my feet hurt (another typical National).  Done with Bitches, and he is cutting dogs one at a time. 
 
SUMMER AND RED SQUIRREL SELECT UNDER THAT QUALITY.
