Focus on Rosie

Focus on Rosie has been my mantra over the weekend, not only because I was showing her but because we were going to a show that has caused me trauma in the past. Rosie was great and ended up with group placements or group wins the entire weekend. She even earned her first leg toward her UKC Grand Championship.

The weekend was going too good for that to last, and sure enough drama happened. It happened from the usual source and I will not get into the details, but what happened does not surprise me in the least. Also, just a friendly reminder, I do monitor the activity and source referrals on this site daily. I see you monitoring my website on a regular basis. My home had security cameras that record as well. So please stop spreading false information, stop stalking me, and leave me alone.

I am not going to rehash and re-traumatize myself by telling everybody what has happened over the years at these shows. I will tell you that this past weekend, Michael and myself made a concerted effort to rarely be in the building unless it was directly related to me showing or helping a friend out. It was our mission to focus on Rosie and that was it. If anybody says that we did anything else, it is false.

I am going to end this blog by quoting my therapist “haters follow glory.” The dog show world needs to do better, because if you are threatened by a 13 month old Hamiltonstovare puppy that is out performing your dogs, then that is a you problem. Work your dogs and not your mouth.
