This is American Staffordshire Terrier, “GCh Angarda Deja Vu Looking At You” at the Lehigh Valley Kennel Club show over the weekend.  Love this image!  I feel like I can reach right in and touch that handsome face!

It was a yellow slicker kind of day at the Lehigh Valley Kennel Club show yesterday in Macungie, Pa.  The rain didn’t dampen the spirits of anyone at the show.  In fact, it added to the photo ops!

That’s all it took!  This Vizsla stole my heart at the Westchester Kennel Club show last weekend.  He/she was waiting in the group ring and looking very calm, cool and collected while posing for the camera!

The Westchester Kennel Club show never disappoints.   There are lots of entries, many large rings, tours for anyone wanting to learn more about dog shows, David Frei announcing the breeds for Group and Best in Show judging, and enthusiastic crowds!   The large size of the rings really stood out to me on Sunday.  Its tough to be in the right place at the right time when dogs and handlers are moving around a large ring.  I was shooting with my 70-200mm lens and just wasn’t able to get the shots I was looking for, so I added a 1.4 extender.  That helped to bring the action in a lot closer.  Loving this Colored Bull Terrier!!
