I recently had the honor of attending my first dog show, which Courtney was participating in. No, she isn't a dog - she is what the "industry" refer to as....a handler. She "handles" the dogs. 
Before I forget to mention - she and her dog "Georgie" won 3rd place ...
Before I forget to mention - she and her dog "Georgie" won 3rd place ...and her friend Diane took 2nd place...
- even though Courtney tried to sabotage her with sudden movements and a hidden dog whistle....."Zelda" the pup was victorious.
- even though Courtney tried to sabotage her with sudden movements and a hidden dog whistle....."Zelda" the pup was victorious. They are both female black poodles....which technically makes them both eligible to be called a "black bitch". 
(though I quickly found that this isn't socially acceptable to yell out "GO BLACK BITCH!" at a dog show...these people have NO sense of humor)
For instance....THIS man covered his mouth and gasped when I told him I bought MY Yorkie from a geriatric in a trailer park.....and that I shave my dog's hair.
Following is a "dogumentary".
There were "upper class" dogs....
And there were lower class dogs....(the ones who ate poo)

Following is a "dogumentary". A collection of the pups I discovered. Some were more friendly than others....
as demonstrated by this french kiss. 
The most dangerous part of my day was when I told the owner of this pup - that it looked like the dog on "Annie". She almost took the clippers to my jugular.

But the fancy ones weren't too stuck up to show their junk. 
There were upper class handlers....
And lower class handlers (the ones who threatened to slit their dogs throats if they didn't win) This particular man booed his own handicapped wife and she limped around the ring with her service dog. He is what the industry refers to as an "A-hole"). 
There were dogs with sad eyes......
And dogs with no eyes.
There were dogs with two ponytails....

There were even dogs who looked JUST like their owners (see legs)

they were no different than the pups you and I have at home.....
They are all a bunch of crotch sniffahs!
P.S. - If you are at a dog show - ALWAYS assume the dessert is for the dogs. Apparently some people didn't....
Dessert for dogs? Wow.
ReplyDeleteGreat post! I had no idea Courtney had such hidden talent! Good for her for giving Georgie a name like "Black Bitch" and not "Afternoon Delight", "Saturday's Warrior", "Strawberries Over Creme Brulee", "Rhapsody in White" or one of the sentences-being-used-as-a-name that you see all too often in a dog show.
And why have you not abused her gift to do something about Gunther pooping on the sidewalk yet?
