When we reached our destination, the place was already jam packed with hoomans & doggies by 9a.m.! We only managed to squeeze in a little bit of the space in the tent. By the way, the tent was air-conditioned. Woohoo!
Who was our groomer? Our Mommy ofcourse! She does a nice job on us considering that she's no professional groomer like the others. She dressed up sooo nicely with white clothing but at the end of the day, it was full of black paw prints, fur & smears. Whoops!
Doesn't Chloe look like a gorgeous Show Dog after Mommy was done with her? She loves holding stuff in her mouth. That's a plastic bag of show treats.
Me? Well, I'm just a goofball pretending to be a Show Dog. Do I look like one to you? I don't know, you tell me. But guess what? The judges thought I was a real Show Dog. They fell for it & I won 2nd place twice among the Bitch Category!!!
Chloe won more than me & made it further than me too. She was sooo sleepy after the 1st show. Here's her falling asleep on the grooming table...
Many dogs looked gorgeous like this American Cocker Spaniel. This guy especially was very fussy over his dog's fur. He was grooming both his Cocker & PomPom for over two to three hours. Not a single strand of hair must be out of place. It had to look pawfect! Who said it was easy being a Show Dog huh?
This loverly Husky girl was made to stand on the table the whole day. But she did win some fantastic rosettes! You know, I'm just glad that I'm not a full-time Show Dog like the rest. I wouldn't want to be standing on tables the whole day & being fussed about all the time & just basically, do nothing at all just to keep absolutely clean! This ain't my forte but it's OK to do it once in a while right?
It was Faith's turn to strut her stuff, so we just waited in the tent with Mommy. It was really boring waiting for many hours...
After the show was over after 11 hours, our hoomans rewarded us by buying us big fat sausages! Everybody stared at us when our hoomans fed us sausages coz Show Dogs don't eat foods like sausages. We don't care! We are very "cincai-bocai".
So here are our ribbons. Nice eh? Okay, mine are a little small but, it's still better than nothing. Hey, two different judges from two different continents from two different shows picked me to be No.2 among all the bitches. Don't play a fool ya know. I'm a Show Dog peoples!
Since both mah sisters have been conferred titles like Best Of Breed, Reserved Best Breed, etc, etc, my Mommy has conferred me this very special title becoz I can do OB, Agility, Flyball, Tricks & Dance, Therapy, Swimming, Eating, Sleeping & whatever. That title is = MTT (Meeyeah Ter Tak) which means in Cantonese, " Everything Also Can!" or in Malay, "Apa Pun Boleh!"
Yeah bebe, that's Me!
By the way, wanna watch me in action? What I'm really, really, really, really, really good at? Then, stay tuned for the next post. Now I'm going back to snore & dream more about...

Kai
Congratulations to all of you! Those sausages are making us drool!
Love ya lots,
Maggie and Mitch
You girls are all so pretty that I knew you would win lots of ribbons. But I agree with you that being a show dog is hard work - all that standing around being groomed and looking gorgeous is quite a job.
Tracking, Rally and Freestyle are a lot more fun. Glad you enjoyed your sausages.
Your friend,
Niamh

love & wags,
River
Good job all of you. You are soooo good. I don't think I'll be able to sit still all these time.
Chloe & you look absolutely stunning. Your mom did a great job.
Congratulations on all the winnings!
Well done gals. Such terrific awards. You are so patient to sit there and wait, and wait and wait whilst you are being groomed. PS. I think I saw you gals at the Dog Olympics today.
I am happy I am not a show dog .. that looks like a lot of work and I really don't think I could concentrate that long ....
Now, importantly ... was the sausage good! ;-)
Cheers
Charlie
Congratulations from Spain.
Do you think i'll could be a show dog?...
Patita

Love 'n' Snuffs
George
Wow! You certainly are a family of all-round champions.
hey, i think those ribbon looks cute...
Wow, you guys are great show dogs. (Amber you definitely look like a beautiful show dog.) I can't believe all the ribbons you won.
Arabella
OH! My mouth is watering! Those big fat sausages look good! My mom won't give me one because of my tummy, but maybe your mom oculd slip me one? HAHA
You guys did great at the shows, raking in all those ribbons! You are really a Show Dog with a great mom who doesn't make you stand on a table all day. that sounds kinda mean to me!
Barklove!
Rusty
Hi,Amber!I look forward to your next post.I will go to the animal clinic tomorrow.Because a shoulder has stiffness.
hi Amber Mae, congratulations on all of your ribbons, and Faith & Chloe also. you did really well and you do look like beautiful show dogs. we think that being a show dog doesn't sound like that much fun if you have to stand on a grooming table for hours and hours. we would rather run and play and roll in stinky stuff like dogs are supposed to, right? you are lucky cuz you get to do both - be a show dog and be a real dog. woof! that's fun.
Congrats for winning those ribbons!!! I bet that the sausage was good!
Amber, Chloe and Faith
Congratulations!! You have done a good job!
Those sausages look yummy!Yum!
woofs
Thor
Congratulations!
You girls did a great job! But to be frank, even if you didnt guys didnt win anything. I still think you girls are very beautiful and i should be a better judge that those judges cos
1. I am a GUY
2. I am a DOG
Love
Boy
Congrats, you guys did great! I am so glad you get to have sausages and don't take the dog show thingy totally serious. You guys looked beautiful, your Mom did a great job!
That is really hard work. You had to wait so long and be really good. Your mom works hard. I think winning a sausage is a great first prize. Tastier than a ribbon.
Deefor
p.s. I have some advice for you so visit.
Congratulations! Way to go!
Ooh the sausages are making me drool.
Woofwoof!Pawgratulations!
Now why not more sausages instead of ribbons? Can they be eaten?
Ooooh... The cocker, the butt...
is so SEXY!!! Now how can Goofy ever keep his coat so beautifully long? Sigh...
Signing Off!
R+G
Wow, that was a really big success! We all know that you and your sisters are beautiful, but it's nice to have two judges confirm it :)
By the way, Xsara's cake was made of everything she loves the most: dog food (canned lamb and dry duck), tuna pate', treats, dog chocolate and, yes, fruit and veggies. So there really were apples on the cake.
Yummy sausages.... You doggies looks real pretty there
~ Girl girl
You and your sisters look beeyootiful!
Your mom did a fantastic job with you gals!
Congrats on all those ribbons and those great looking sausages too!
Wow! YOu BOTH did so well...a full day of pampering, and ribbons and SAUSAGES...I bet all of the other doggies were drooling in jealousy!
woof!

pee-ess: my mom didn't make the frosty paws for me...it was our friend whose house we visited saturday night.
Good evening amber.
The happiness at wonderful time is special.
Congratulations on the sausage and the ribbon prize.
The combination of slaver and the order is honor, and the appetites. :)

Boy, if there had been a BUTT-WAGGING Competition or a BLOG-writing category, you would have cleaned up!

hi amber....
congratulations... buddies..
your look so good...
send a big hug
Amber-Mae, I cannot believe they gave such tiny ribbons to such a lovely girl.
You are right that those dog shows are REALLY boring. And staying clean? Forget about it. Your mommy did a nice job making you all pretty for the show.
Slobbers,
Mango
Congratulations on your stellar performance at the dog show! How utterly pawsome that the three of you are soo decorated.
Looks like it was fun and tiring and you got the best reward of all.. a sausage that no rosette could ever compare to :)
Congrats on all your ribbons!! Those sausages looks super tastey!! Those show dogs should give them a try sometime. That American Cocker Spaniel had a lot of hair! Looking at him I'm glad that I'm a Field Spaniel and don't have as much hair as that. A couple minutes of brushing every day is all that I can handle!
Hi, Amber...
Congrats on your Awards...
You are a beautiful doggie...Your Mom did a great job grooming you...
I don't think I would want to be a show dog, either...I like to roll in the dirt too much...
Abby xxxooo
Amber-Mae I am hanging my head in shame for not stopping by in so long!
I think all of you are booootiful and did a great job1 Even though those ribbons are great.....I think the real prize was sausage!!! Some humans just don't get it do they.
Willow
Amber, who wants to be a show dog anyways? They can't play, they can't eat good food, they can't roll on smelly things, they can't dig, they can't do any fun doggy stuff...too boring for me!
I think you are definitely "Show Dog" quality, just smarter than they are.
I bet those sausages were yummy! I hope you all enjoyed them!
Hugs,
CoCo
wow, you guys are great! I never get to win anything. :(
and the sausages looks yummilicious!!
Congratulations to all of you on your wins! And yummy sausages are definitely a good award!
Wow!! You guys won so many!!! Your mommy did a great job as well. Did she get a big sausage, too??
Momo & Pinot
Hi!When I stand up, the hoodie falls down behind.
hey Amber-Mae,
Wow! All those ribbons and they are so pretty! Congratulations to all you doggies! I don't know if I could be a show dog. When I see other humans and dogs I just want to run and play. Now, about those huge, fat, round, juicy sausages - got a couple for me? Yummers! I can't stop drooling.
Suka
Hi Amber Mae,
You girls look gorgeous... congrats on your fab wins! Oh man... the sausages made me drool all over the keyboard.
*p/s. my mommy says THANKS to you mommy for all the kinds words and support at a time when she needed it most.
Congratulations. Those sausages look yummy.

~Amber~
Wow you guys did so well, and you all look beautiful. How cool to be a show dog!
Wow!!
You guys did pawsome!
And yes, you really do look like show dogs! But you're right, it probably wouldn't be too fun standing on grooming tables fur hours as a career.
Congrats on all your awards!!
And mmmm... those sausages look delicious!
Wags and licks,
Maya and Kena
Oh, Amber you are a show doggie and very boot-i-fool. Chloe looked just georgous too. I am sure Faith looked spectacular too. Those sausages looked so yummy and juicy..drool going on here now! How did you control yourself when that lady was eating her sausages? Man I would have been beggin for more of that yummy sasuages! Mom, Dad & Allie just got back from her pageant so Mommy said I could post pictures later on my blog..wish I could have went...my hooman brother doggy sitted us but it was fun cuz we made him cook us yummy dinners..hee hee I played the hungry dog on him and we sure did clean up or should I say eat up...ha ha ha! Love ya doggies!
Sami

Woofs and slobbers from your Newfie pals,
'Bella and Gabriel
Mmmm sausages! Now, I'm super hungry!! What a great, if long, day you all had. You all should be so proud since you did so well!! What a great way to end the day with sausages!!
Your pal,
Kirby
Those sausages look mighty tasty, but it still seems like a lot of effort. Congrats on your ribbons.
Hi Amber,
Congratulations on winning. I am not surprised...the three of you should win hands down in any dog competition(and grooming...who needs it?)
Licks n Wags,
Oorvi
That's amazing! Congrats on your dog show. I guess it's worth the hours in the tent for the sausages, no? I'm so glad that I don't have all that hair like that other cocker spaniel! It sure is pretty but I'm not really one for bathing or grooming. I'm more of the stinky sort.
Hope you had a great time!
Woot congrats on the ribbons! I like ribbons too. :)
Congratulations Amber on your 2nd place! I'm not surprised at all that you did so well. And congrats to Faith and Chloe too! I feel sorry for the poor doggie who had to stand on the table all day. Those people should take notes from your mommy. Sausages for everyone!!
Hugs, Kodak
Congrats girls!! You all looked beautiful (your Mommy too!)
The best part is that you guys had a lot of fun, and got to eat sausages!
Love Clover xo
Congratulations girls! Now I am going to pester my Missus for sausages!
Those are lots of ribbons! You guys did a great job! And your mom sure did an awesome job grooming you! I wish my human would learn to do it so I don't have to go to a groomer!
Mmmmm sausage...
Slurp!
Mr. T-Bone Beasley
Amber, your a Pro!!!
