First Show - First Major!

Mom and I went to my first "big boy" show today. We went really early so that we could play and mom wanted me to get used to being in a cage at the show. Not really sure why she thought that was a big deal, all I could do was watch, sleep or chew my bone. But she was proud of me for being a good boy. I got to see a lot of people and very different looking dogs, some even wanted to play with me. It was finally my turn, and armed with chicken and salmon, mom and I entered the ring. I still did not think I should stack, but I did it anyways. Then we ran around the ring with the other dog, mom said I did a very good job. I had to stack again, but the judge was very nice to me and knew I was a "baby" puppy. I did a great down and back and mom was very proud. We went around the ring one more time and we won!! The judge gave us a pretty blue ribbon and I tried to eat it! We had to wait a little while and then we went in the ring again. This time there were a lot more dogs and they were older than me. We went around the ring and then the judge wanted to see me do another down and back, gosh, how many times do I have to do this?? Then we went around again and she pointed at mom - mom was really excited about that. And we got another ribbon, I tried to eat it too! We went back to our cage and mom gave me a bunch of chicken and then I wanted ice. I really like to eat ice!! After we celebrated we went to see Sami and I jumped all over her, mom had to make me settle down. She told us that she thought that was a major!! Wow - a major at my very first show. We didn't have time to check it out as we had to go back in again! Again, why again?? This time there were even more dogs in the ring. But I did my thing and let mom stack me, even though I still do not know why we have to stack??? Finally, we are done... but mom was really happy and very pleased with me (I was pleased with me too :) We had to wait awhile and then we went to get a picture with the judge. I got up on a big box and had to stack AGAIN! wow, when does this stop?? I was so glad when mom asked if I was ready to go home. I had a lot of fun, but I was tired.
