​April 3rd-6th, 2025

Finally some decent entry numbers! Great Judging Panel too!
Ms Peggy Beisel-Mcllwaine TH, Carolyn A Herbel FR, Mr James A Fehring SA, Ms Shelley S Hennessy SU.
It was great to see friends I haven't seen in a while.

PinkPaw picked up a combined 27 points, encompassing 7 majors.
To say it was a productive show circuit is an understatement.
Aurora earned two BOS, one BOV completing a good portion of her grand title her first show weekend out since finishing her champion title, two 3 pt majors, and a 5 pt major all with CH defeats. I pulled her Sunday.

Leo was select dog all four days for the 10 remaining points he needed for his grand title.
CH defeats all four days.
Miss Dee on her second and third shows earned the two majors towards her champion title.
She is a blast to show. Hope she keeps this attitude.
Misty Meadow's Carnival in Venice showed great. As did her sister.
Dot was pulled on Sunday due to a pooh-mishap. Anice brown streak down the middle of her forehead. lol
​A bath was NOT on the schedule Sunday morning!
HUGE thank you to my husband for supporting me in the ring Saturday & Sunday.

Land O Lakes & Northstar Toy Shows
​January 3-5, 2025

​Ok! Floated down from cloud nine to recap our most recent show circuit in St Paul, Minnesota at the Land O Lakes & NorthStar Toy KC’s shows. Five shows in three days. We entered four of these shows.
I had three bred-by PinkPaw Chihuahuas (Aurora, Leo & Dee) entered along with my two most recent Misty Meadow’s sisters, Venice & Dot. Grateful to those willing to help with handling. Meg Schaaf, Hailey Sorensen (Katelyn) lol, Terri Porthan I couldn’t have done it without you. Thank you!
PinkPaw The Lion’s Share, Leo earned his AKC CH title at the first LOL show going BOV from the “bred-by-puppy class. He also earned BBY & BOBOH. At the NST show Friday he was WD, BOW, BOH, BBY. I moved him up to Best of Variety the final two shows. Leo was BOV both shows for two 4 pt majors and two CH defeats. He took home 11points total.
PinkPaw Goddess of The Dawn, Aurora competed against my girl, Misty Meadow’s Carnival in Venice in class and a CH male. Tough finding sc entries. Aurora was WB, BOV, BOHG3, BBYG2 for a point in the LOL show. In the NST show she was WB, BOV, BOH, BBY. Aurora showed in an exhausting SIX groups on Friday. She showed her heart out!!!! I was so proud of her! SA & SU she was WB, BOS for two more points.
Misty Meadow’s Carnival in Venice was reserve all four shows.
Misty Meadow’s Masquerade Parti, Dotty was WB both shows Friday. Reserve on Saturday. WB Sunday. Earning a total of 3 points.

Council Bluffs, Iowa shows
​November 23-24, 2024

Great show weekend in Council Bluffs, Iowa.
PinkPaw brought home a combined total of 12 points!
Aurora earns her first major (5 pt) going BOV over several specials. Reserve on Saturday..
Venice earned her first (3 pt) major on Saturday. Reserve on Sunday.
Leo earned his third (4 pt) major on Saturday. Now a single point away from his champion title.
Interesting conversation with the judge at the photo podium. He said to me, "I hope you understand. I like to spread things around." Referring to not awarding my long coat boy.... BUT he awarded the same OH for both WD & WB. Two Chihuahuas that wouldn't even move around the ring. So much so the judge asked us, (I was handling WB for the OH) "you two just stay there." Judge allowed the special to move around the ring and table. The WD & WB didn't have to move around the ring for BOW.
I believe it's crap like this that has caused OHs to give up on the sport.
​Sad, Sad event. At times it's not easy to be a "good sport".

Amaretto Di San Gimignano
Westminster Dog Show May 13th, 2024
Great time with my best friend Meg Schaaf in New York.
Amaretto went into the show ring well but fizzled second part... he couldn't take his nose off the carpet and I had to hard stack him which he didn't like. A bit frustrating. I still went home with the best dog!

Rough weekend for PpC! No points!
Judges: Mr Rodney Merry
                               Ms Lew Olson (Gal that reminds me of Christie)

5 point majors to be had in both varieties. Luna was reserve on Saturday-I think

Tina made her debut but took second of three in her class.
First place winner was literally dragged around the ring still winning the first place nod. She IS a very pretty bitch. Many came up to me afterwards saying I got robbed. Won't be the first time....I knew going into this show that friends of mine were good friends with Saturday's judge. I chose to leave Sunday before the longs showed hoping to avoid traffic coming home. LONG drive without traffic. Especially when you don't bring any points home. Ugh! lol
​Seriously rethinking why I'm doing this....

Great day for the regional show. GCH Kari earned an AOM

Northstar Toy Specialty & St. Paul, Minnesota shows

January 5,6,7, 2018
judges:
Mr Larry C Abbott, Mr William DeVilleneuve, Mrs Rosalind Kramer
All these judges were very good with Chihuahuas!

What a GREAT way to start off the new year! Drove 1275 miles to the frozen tundra of St. Paul Minnesota to be at one of my favorite dogs shows!
​PpC took home 14 points. Well worth the LONG drive!

Kari was BOV Friday & Saturday for 4 points majors each day. Waited for group both days but judges missed us in the line up...oh well. Kari could not have shown better! She was select bitch Sunday for a 3 points major.

I entered Gemma, Luna & Fergie on Saturday & Sunday. I can't thank my friends enough for helping me. It was a challenge to show four sc Chihuahua bitches. But we got it done without much trouble!

Gem is still getting the hang of the show ring and continues to make progress. She was second both days out of two.

Luna won her class each day against one other bitch. Then on Sunday was WB & BOW for her first points!  It was a three point major!

Fergie made her show debut Saturday winning Reserve to the major. She showed well for the first times in the ring.

I was pleasantly surprised on Sunday by my two youngest sons and their girlfriends at the show site at 8am! It was my birthday. They are pictured below in Luna's win picture. What a treat. Thank you Austen & Evan!


Kari sailed through her Grand Champion title with 5 five point majors and champion defeats with each major. She has certainly come into her own! She received two BOS wins & three select bitch wins, four of these wins were at Chihuahua Specialties!


CCA Reg & National shows at St Louis, MO
October 12-15, 2017
Judges: Mr Jason Hoke reg
Ms Lauren Payne Nat'l
What a week! Kari showed amazing for both shows.
At the regional show Kari made the cut competing against 14 other BOV bitches.
She didn't make it to the ribbon placement.
At the National show being judged by breeder judge Ms Lauren Payne Kari was awarded "select bitch" for her last 5 points needed to finish her grand CH title. She competed against 14 other BOV bitches.
Kari finished her Grand title earning 5 five point majors and easily getting the CH defeats needed for the Grand title. I'm so very proud of her. Kari has truly come into her own.

​Dazzles Streaking By Moonlight debuted at the National. Luna showed well in the 6-9 month puppy bitch class. But the judge didn't find her. Still proud of how she showed.

With Hurricane Harvey knocking at our door...

The Houston Chihuahua Club shows went off without a hitch.
Only a few absences due to the weather.
We had very nice entry numbers!

There were two shows.
Judging the first show was Linda George (Queen of Chihuahuas).
Second show was judged by Ms Carmen D Blankenship
Kari was my only entry. She earned select bitch for a 5 point major and CH defeat & AOM.
The Houston Toy Club shows were cancelled. Rightfully so.
Saturday morning I traveled to the show site and was surprised how badly the hotel was taking the rain.
There were windows broken. And water coming in at several locations in the hotel.
​Missouri City where we live received more than 50 inches of rain.

Kari was WB & BOS the first two days.
Moved up to BOV the third day winning BOS for her first grand CH major.

I must be reminded of this incidence.
Thursday's & Sunday's judge put up a NOTICEABLY limping class dog for WD (5 point major) being shown by a handler from the open class of five entries. I take issue with this.

Kari had a tough time this weekend.
She was very spooked by this show site.
Claimed to be an "indoor" show site of which I disagree.
It's three sided, fourth side being a floor to ceiling chain link fence.  
Kari was the only entry in her class.
​So she did get to go into the ring twice.

Pink Paw Chihuahua brings home 27 points!!
Christie was called away Saturday by her daughter going into labor three weeks early. Christie did make it home for the birth of their first grand son.
Zombie, Cayenne & Kari were entered all four days. Heavy competition!
Zombie finished her AKC CH title on Saturday with a three pt major. I was going to pull her Sunday however another pulled their bitch. If I pulled Z too it would have broken the 3 pt major. We showed to Mr Elliott B. Weiss who has Parkinson's disease I believe....no disrespect meant. His hands shook fairly bad.
Mr. Weiss withheld the first place ribbon for the 6-9 mo. puppy bitch class. Kari & another puppy bitch were terrified. Not walking around the ring. Honestly I have to agree with the judge for with holding...
I wasn't holding much faith in Zombie performing well.
She did WONDERFUL for this judge! Going WB, BOW & BOS for a 4 point major she didn't need.
BUT extremely grateful for having earned it!

The unexpected!
Cayenne has been in the ring twice now. Both times she's surprised me.

Zombie showed well winning second Friday, 
First Saturday both from the Bred-By Class.
Dooku won "select" dog Fri for a point but fell ill. After vet bills totaling $470 and Dooku not well enough to show Saturday.
 We decided to head home Saturday afternoon.

National Judge:          The Renown Max Hurd


Pp C's Thriller aka Zombie made her debut at the CCA national 
AKC 4-6 month old show taking second out of three. She was GREAT!


Dooku was "Select" dog
A HUGE, HUGE win over SO many beautiful long coats
long coat entry was 140
35 BOV Dogs
15 BOV Bitches


Mikko was third in the 9-12 month class with 9 entered. He continues to make positive strives forward.


Lewis made the cut with 25 BOV smooth coat dogs entered & 19 BOV Bitches
Total smooth coat entered was 109
Before entering the ring for the final Lewis noticed a dog from a far. It was as though he had found his long lost brother.... I wasn't sure what in the world took Lewis' interest by this dog. We entered the ring for the final. Max went along asking certain dogs to do a "down & back". Lewis' down was fine. His coming back not good. Max asked us to repeat it again. Lewis couldn't focus on nothing else but the veteran dog in the ring. I believe this is what lost a placement for Lewis. Oh well. I was very disappointed! After staring at this dog, trying to figure out what on earth Lewis was so fixed on this dog for. I noticed he looked very much like my Kixie who was in standing heat when we left. I think Lewis thought it was Kix...
Long, Long drive home. Left St. louis just after 4 pm. 517 miles in the fog and drizzle. Drove to Eagan, Minnesota to drop off Miss Samantha & her friend Anna. Then on to Eau Claire for another 98 miles arriving home at 3am. WE MADE IT!!!

THANK YOU MISS SAMANTHA VAN BUREN FOR HELPING ME OUT IN BREED & GROUP

These judges ARE exceptional with puppies!! Love them! I planned on NOT showing Mikko at these shows due to his recent bad experience with a judge. I wanted him to be in the show environment. But several people helped me through this. Going over Mikko while on the table. The judges were amazing! It probably helped me more than Mikko to get over our bad experience! Still have lots of work to do to get him through this. Will do. I think he's worth it....
