On Saturday June 16, Gunther and I got to spend a wonderful day with friends from the Great Dane Club of the Mid South. We all took our dogs to the Griffin Kennel Clubs Match. It was like a practice for show dogs and the dog sport of Rally.

OMG we had a wonderful time in the heat. LOL. Thank heavens for those trees. Anyway, everyone from the Griffin Kennel Club was so nice and made the day a lot of fun for us.

Below are some pictures of the day, and a picture of Gunther's ribbons from being in Rally. There was a large amount of dogs in his category and most of them were search and rescue dogs, just there having fun and practicing with their handlers. Gunther came in third. I was pretty proud of him, for his first time in the Rally competition. Now we have plans to go to Greenville, SC., Huntsville, AL, and then in August do the big show in Atlanta.

One thing that was really interesting, is that the man who won first in the Rally Novice A group, was a man who my son has been trying to track down. GT is wanting to pursue being a K9 handler and Search and Rescue, and there he was with one of his dogs. GT and him talked so much, they caught up on karate and dogs, it was great.

One more thing. I have to tell you about RescueMeTugz. Michele who makes these wonderful tugs, donates all her money from the tugs to Great Dane Rescues. This month she has chosen the Great Dane Club of the Mid South's Rescue to donate to. Here is her links. http://www.rescuemetugz.etsy.com. If you have any questions about her product, email me, she is wonderful about getting back with you.

Ok, enough talk. Check out the pictures of my friends, their dogs and of course the Gun-man.

Well done Gunther!!!!! I love it when you update this blog with piccies, we have a blue merle dane called scooby, no good for show with his set of wonky teeth and cross eyes, but we love him anyway! Nice to see a show dane in the making:-)

Gunther, you are so gorgeous! My neighbor across the fence is a Harlequin Great Dane. We can't play together because she just slobbers too much. Behave!
