Default Goin' to the dogs

Went to the Halifax Kennel Club's first show of the year for confirmation &
obedience on the weekend.
Our dog's father, two of his brothers and one sister were all entered. All
the pups (7 & 3/4 months old) came away with ribbons.
I had wanted to see how ours would do...but we had no experience showing and
the breeder already had her hands full with the other four dogs so my wife
jumped the gun and had him neutered Wednesday past.
Damn... he coulda been a champion!
Anyway...now we have to settle for a faithful companion and family dog.
I really wanted to put him next to his siblings to see how much bigger he
was... but only the dogs entered in the show were allowed on site. Some of
us adopted parents keep in touch and I'm sure we'll have a chance for a
'family re-union' when better weather arrives.
