Five Fun Days In Arizona
We packed up the gang and headed for Scottsdale, Arizona for 5 days of dog shows. All five days were Majors and most were 5 point shows as well. A win would have been nice. However, a reserve Win at such a large show is encouraging and shows that we do have Danes of high quality. The weather was unpredictable. Two days, rain delayed the Best of Breed competition. It was also cold and windy for much of the show. However, that didn't stop the hard core dog fancier from taking in the show. The first two days had good weather, but no one seemed to remember that after the two miserable days that followed. There was a nice rainbow on Saturday between showers.

Day 1 - Specialty show Monkey is ready while the competition adjusts This Monkey works for liver, not bananas.
Another large Winners Class Its hard work keeping both ears up The Judge takes a long look, but no points.
Day 2- Chuck gets some time with Monkey And Pam gets some time with Desi Desi goes reserve Winners
Friday was the Great Dane after party The doggies had to give up some space for the people But the people weren't giving up any of the snacks.
By now, the days are running together But we haven't run out of liver. It stayed dry for the classes.
Desi looking for her fan club in the crowd Pam doing an excellent job in tough conditions Desi may be too cold to move at this point.
Dog Show fans are just as dedicated as any sports fan This is why Great Danes are in the working group Its a tough job, but someone has to do it.
The sun came out for the last day Monkey Boy was asking for the win. He was awarded Reserve Winners Dog
This is a doggie wind up Then the release. All work and no play....
Desi won a very large Open Fawn class A win would have made the drive home shorter But, it wasn't anything Desi did wrong.
