I so enjoy watching the dogs and handlers in the show ring. The dogs are doing their best (well, most of the time!) to show well in front of the judge. There they are, focused on the bait, when out of the corner of their eye, they catch a glimpse of the judge. For a split second, they glance away, maybe without even moving their head, to see if the judge is looking at them. Then their focus goes right back to the bait! This image is from the Chester Valley Kennel Club show last month in Pennsylvania.

One of my favorite breeds – the Gordon Setter. I love the flying ears and happy doggy smile in this image from the Bucks County Kennel Club Show last month.

If I had to choose only one breed to photograph, hands down (er, paws down!), it would be the Sussex Spaniel! This breed steals my heart every time! This image is from the Chester Valley Kennel Club show on Saturday, May 9, 2015.

Meet German Shorthaired Pointer, Rosie, River Run’s Sophisticated Lady. Rosie is the daughter of one of my favorite dogs, Scarlet (GCh. Skypoint’s Our River Runs Free), who is now retired from the ring and enjoying a life of leisure in Vermont! Rosie and handlers Cliff Steele and Laura Kieffer had a great weekend at the Bucks County and Trenton Kennel Club Shows! I look forward to watching her walk in her mommy’s paw-steps!

Did you guess this breed correctly from yesterday’s post? It’s the Spinone Italiano. This breed is a sociable sporting dog that is an excellent hunter and retriever. They are well known for their superior nose and super soft mouth. I love their sweet expression and shaggy coat. I am happy to say that I have a Spinone for a neighbor and he’s one very handsome fellow!
