Winner's Dog

WINNER’S DOG
The parade of Great was Great. I loved Ruby, Antonio, Army and Honky Tonk Man in the ring together. It makes up proud of our breed.
I got to go spend the inheritance at Sally’s booth, for the kids at the office. It is a good cause, Sally’s inheritance. LanaLee was here, but I think she got upset with me and moved to the other side of the table.
In the ring are now the class winners, what a line of dogs, Patrick, High Voltage, Last Harrah, Monte Carlo, Walk The Line, Dream Love Bear,and Im The One.
Cappy is looking at them, and walks the line, not pun intended, and tells them to take a lap, one at a time, and there goes Kent with Patrick. Some applause. He yells, “easy” and takes him slow and loose.
Now Next is Sylvane, a Canadian handler with Last Harrah, more crowd involvement. Not a lot, but some and Cappy yells, “slow down” and he does.
She heads back and Liz takes High Voltage and not a lot of noise for him, yet.
Then Ross with Dream Love Bear, and a bit too quiet.
Last is Jeff with Im The One.
Next up is Cindy with Monte Carlo.
Cappy pulls High Voltage to the front and puts Monte Carlo in second and looks at Kent with Patrick and looks at her first three and walks to Kent and moves Im The One in third. She walks to the front to tell High Voltage what she wants and there go the three of them, High Voltage Monte Carlo and Im The One, and slow and easy. She sets them aside and takes the others, all good ones. The crowd likes Last Harrah, and so do I. But this isn’t his day, I think. Cappy walks over to them and walks down the line and she has her back to me, and waves her hand, not at me. She wants to see High Voltage in the middle of the ring, and tells him to let him stand and he jumps up on cappy for a hug, and she laughs and puts him in front. She tells him to go back. She now goes up to Monte Carlo and does the same thing, and he stays where he is. Now she brings out Last Harrah, and he stands like a pro. Cappy now goes back to the center of the group, Lavane has the dog off to the end of the ring and he tries to jump up, not a smart move, and Cappy is going over to check him and tell him what not to do.
Now she moves Last Harrah to second, and the crowd does like that. There they go, the first three. Cappy is running now and walking fast and YES it’s Last Harrah out of 12-18 month.
