So it's been a busy month since Sona turned 1 and we left the puppy forum. Sona took part in her first open and companion shows. She passed her KC bronze test with flying colours. Went to Ireland to visit my parents and had her first visit to the groomers. I thought I would start a thread so she could keep you up to date on all things Sona - and It will stop me thinking of other things!!!
I was feeling tired after Easter weekend. I went to my first shows and my mom was delighted - she said I may never be BIS but she was soooo trilled I was a good girl both in and out of the ring. I was on my bestest behaviour that must be why I was tired :bowl:
Everyone was very excited when I got this rosette - mom said she was super proud. I'm not sure what the fuss was about cause I love class and it wasn't too hard. I think they were excited cause I did something a little bit naughty on our first attempt last year but I've forgotten allllll about that :uhoh:
I also got to play with my cousin Clyde - I'm taller than him now. He doesn't like the car so I let him share my new crate. I told him it wasn't that scary and I think he began to feel better.
Mom took me to an odd place but I was happy to go in cause there was a friendly lady from training there. They washed me and started cutting my coat. I wasn't sure this was the best idea so thought I should try to leave the table but the lady was having none of it. Once I was all done I waited very patiently for mum. While I was waiting two of my best friends turned up with their human - so fun. When mum came back she told me I looked so pretty - but then again when do I not. Mum said I look all grown up so I was happy
So I've been watching tv and I think I could get a role in one of those perfume ads as a moody lady of mystery - mom says no chance cause I gotta hold the look for more than a microsecond.
Hi sona! Didn't know you as a pup but I look forward to hearing about you adventures. You are a pretty girl. I like your confidence, will serve you well
Look look look.... I made a new doggy friend at training.... At least I think it's a dog, he was teeny tiny. Mom said he was the same size as the fluff balls she is getting from my coat three times a day at the moment. She was so distracted by puppy cuddles that we almost missed the start of class :wink2:
Sona is beautiful and your pictures are lovely. In the photo with the "pocket dog" it really does look as if Sona is asking, "Mom are you sure it's really a dog????" Love it
I had a lovely time swimming on Sunday. Then I saw the ducks. I though in the end the best thing to do was to sit really still and they would come to me. I wonder why that didn't work...
Hi Everyone! I haven't been here in awhile cause my mom had to go away for work. So I had to go stay with my friends. It was lots of fun I got to swim every day and play with my doggy friends. I was still very excited when mom came home! I thought I would share some photos from my holidays..
Lovely day yesterday at a companion show. Sona did so well - even with some very worrying sounds going on about her!
1st - AV Gundog,
4th - Obedience 1 (impossible to do a down stay without a down :surprise,
3rd - obedience 2 (may have broken her sit stay but did an amazing job retrieving a borrowed wooden dumbbell!),
2nd - pretty eyes,
4th - prettiest bitch
Finished off the day with a visit to her breeder. Sona looks very like her mum and although she may not have been overly keen on her baby returning for a visit :wink2: her extended family was pleased to see her!
All that was left was one tired pup.
Catching up with Sona, can't believe she's all grown up, congratulations on all the achievements she's going to do so well. Love the pictures she's a very pretty girl!.
My clever little girl successfully passed her Kennel Club Good Citizen Dog Scheme silver test - so proud of her. She worked really hard and stayed so focused throughout, especially as it was all tested outdoors except the controlled greeting ?
