Sunday I took Heidi to a conformation match, to practice before the big Denver show in a week. I was suprised at the number of dogs at the match. I had thought that we could be the only keeshond there, but when I arrived, there were already 2 others, and then a few more came. All the kees happened to be entered in the adult category. Heidi showed wonderfully, focused, and not too fidgety. Heidi won the female category, then went on to beat the boys for best adult kees. We then got to go to the non-sporting group, where Heidi got a group 1.
In addition to this wonderful placement, I also got to show my friends Finnish Lapphund, Kia (my friend has 2 males, so she took one in the ring and I took the other). Kia got 1st place in Lappies, so I took him back in for the herding group. Kia also managed a group 1 placement. What an awesome day.
