My 6th Show in Castrop-Rauxel / Germany, November 2003Two days before this show I decided to come into heat. Mistress realized it the same evening and called the show officials to ask if we were still allowed to participate. It was no problem. I would not be allowed in the hall and would be judged outside. All well up to here ... Master could not come along so Mistress´s sister accompanied us again. I did not have to be "prepared" so much since our last show had not been that long ago. We went out at about 7.30 am. Castrp-Rauxel is easy to reach from Essen so I was not nervous we might get lost. We did indeed arrive at 8.30 am without taking any wrong turns. Since I had to stay in the car I can only guess what was happening inside: Mistress went to get our show material and studied the catalog. I was competing in the champions class for the first time. Mistress was interested in who I would be up against. There were over 50 Aussies entered but I was the only girl starting in the champions class ... The catalog said that the Aussie champions were to be judged the last Mistress assumed we would be due some time around midday. We took a long walk and I waited in the car for things to occur. I was crazily happy when Mistress came to fetch me from the car. So Mistress decided to get me about 15 minutes before our turn. She went back inside to watch the proceedings. At around 10.00 am Mistress came running towards the car completely hectic. What happened? Weren´t we supposed to be due way later?! Me being the only girl in the champions class and having to be judged outside the judge decided to judge me first. I was barely out of the car and into my show collar when the judge was standing behind us. We jogged around once. Or should I say I dragged Mistress around? I presented myself and since the judge just might have been able to realize that the surprisingly early start had riled us up, he made us run one more round. Now I trotted as I was used to since Mistress had calmed down a lot. I presented my self again and the judge looked at my teeth. When he had written his statement (want to read the judges statement?) and I had gotten my treat they all vanished into the hall again. I curled up in my box. It did not take long for Mistress to return to the car a big trophy in her arms. I was not allowed in the hall and so could not participate in the final decisions, Mistress made a deal for us to leave early.
