Bullies In Paradise Hilo

Okay, okay, okay - I'm tired of Allen bugging me about it and I really did need to get off my butt and do this.  We had a blast up in Hilo for the Bullies in Paradise event.  Not only because the dogs did well, but we were "on vacation," got to see a bunch of great dogs, and got to hang out with a bunch of cool people.  What more can you ask for on a weekend?

What's even cooler is that Diamond did well in the weight pulling fun match.  Now, we haven't been training her hard because we were hoping she was going to be having puppies.  When it looked like that wasn't going to happen, we began to work her a little more.  But we really only got to work her about 10 days strong.  In any case, she didn't win pound for pound (a 40-something pounder from Kona name Angel won that), but she did win her weight division!  So she got a cool ribbon and bowl.



Then on Sunday, they had a fun show. We entered Moose, Diamond, and Midgi (our new Frenchie).

Midgi won her age group (0-6 months).

Then Moose came up and won for 6-12 month old male. A female named "Patches" won best overall for the 6-12 month old group.

Diamond didn't place, but that's okay, she had fun anyway!

Then, they called up all the dogs that had blue ribbons. This included both the Frenchie and Moose. They awarded one dog for Best of Show and one for People's Choice.

MOOSE won the Best of Show!!!


That was cool!

We did have quite a few inquiries about him in Hilo. Even people who've seen him here on the website or up on MySpace were kind of surprised at how he looked in person. We were told a number of times that he looks much more impressive in person than he does in his pictures. Of course, we think so too, but then we're kind of biased because he's our dog.

So anyway - that's how the weekend went. We had fun, the dogs did well, and we got to cruise with great people and even see a bit of the island.

S11129I2 It is a ugg boots ultra strange thing, to note the excess of this passion, and how it braves the ugg bailey button sale nature, and value of things, by this; that the speaking in a perpetual hyperbole, is comely in nothing but in love. Neither is it merely in the uggs bailey button phrase; for whereas it hath been well said, that the arch-flatterer, with whom all the petty flatterers have intelligence, is a man`s self; certainly the classic tall uggs lover is more. For there was never proud man thought so absurdly well of him self, as the lover doth of the person loved; and therefore it was well said, That it is impossible to love, and to be wise.
