The Moonstone gang recently showed at the Middleburg Kennel Club Dog Show held at Oatlands Plantation in Leesburg, VA.  It’s one of our favorite show sites, despite that the weather is often unpredictable, from Snow that canceled the show one year, to rain, to muddy conditions that suck the shoes right off your feet.  This year, we were blessed with beautiful, if a bit cold and windy,  weather and happy times with good friends who made the trip from Ohio, North Carolina, Maine, Maryland, and Pennsylvania.  On Satursday under Judge Brian Meyer, Scarlett was RWB to major and Swagger was Best of Opposite for a Grand Championship Major award.  On Sunday, Ace was RWD to major and Swagger was Select Dog for another Gr Ch major.  Thanks to Amy Alspaugh Penuel for handling Swagger to these awards.

Fortunately, Key4Prints has enjoyed spending time outside the beardie ring of late, and was on hand to snap these ringside candids.
