Group 1 at 11.5 years old- GChS Acadia Stage Presence, CC -the girl's still got it!

 Amazing!!  I have been on a High all Week long!  Liza is 11.5 years old, and she looks really good, so I decided to enter her as a Veteran at the National.  As a refresher, I entered her in a few dog shows.   Sunday, at the First Company Governor's Foot Guard Athletic Association dog show, Mr. Robert Robinson honored her by awarding us a 1st Place in the Herding Group.  The show had a large entry, and it was really, really, an honor.

Because of her age, and the fact that we showed in the breed ring at 11:00, and groups were not going to start until 3:30, and the Herding Group was the 4th group, I wasn't going to stay.  I didn't want to wear her out too much.   While taking the Best of Breed picture I mentioned to the judge that I didn't think we were going to stay.   He said, "that's too bad."--------    Well, that changed my mind.  THANK GOD we STAYED!!  

When we were taking the group photo Mr. Robinson said, "when you are judging the breeds through the day, you know who you are sending to the group and you get a sense of what to expect."    He liked her from the start.  A week later and I am Still Flying High!   Liza is Amazing, and I am so lucky to have her.
