    Westminster - is Markie going?

    I believe that Jaime is going to Westminster again w/Markie? Right?  Anyone know for sure?!  I don't see him on the invite list, but I know that's not complete.
     
    If so, she'll be in the same ring (#2), just before my friend (in White Bull Terriers).  Therefore, I will be watching the ring tomorrow and cheering him on - if he's there.  Anyone else going that I should be on the look-out for?
    This is my first time attending and wouldn't it be fun to see other dog.com enthusiasts there?! 
    Best wishes to all who are competing!!!

    For some bizzare reason I thought that you were in NYC this weekend.  I can only wish that I was going to be there, but that isn't going to happen.  Anyway, be safe & have fun.

    Is there a list somewhere online of the invited dogs by breed?  I would really love to see which Parsons wil be there.  We(mentor and I) almost always have dogs invited.  I love it and hopefully one day, I'll get to go with one of my dogs!

    the showing starts tomorrow (at least the conf events I want to watch), and I live close enough to NYC that I'm just driving down EARLY in the morning... so I'm there by 10am, and have enough time to settle in and get ready to watch Ring 2 around 12:30pm.
    I should really be in bed right now...

    All I see listed are the numbers and state breakdown...no names. They usually put up the entries the day they are judged tho....Terriers go tomorrow looks like. 23 AmStaff....
     
    I want to take a bit and say GO PARKER...to "Ch Wildwood's Parker County" a 13" Beagle that's owned by some great folks down here in TX. He was the sire of my Snap and Tuck...first litter for me. Tuck is now a Ch and being specialed by the same lady...so I am hoping Parker does well!

    This is the "official" invites, but there are others that get in on wildcard invites.
    One of the Dobermans comes from Marquis kennels, so I'll be watching them, too.  I'm proud to say there are 13 dogs hailing from NH!

    That list just gives the top 5 champions who receive automatic invites, so I have no clue where to find the rest.  I'd have to defer to Gina, since she would know more than me.

    I friend and fellow dog club member of mine is a co-owner of the PBGB that won the group at the AKC Nationals, so they will be at Westminster as well.  [:D]

    Good luck to them, Markie (if he is there) and Gina's beagle friends! [:D]

    Once the breed judging is over, the catalog and results get posted....It has been fairly fast in the past....It all has to do with the requirements that judges do not know who is going to enter their rings.

    Oh, i totally forgot about Westminster.  All I can say is Cando for Papillon!  ;)  (Ch Flashpoint Mission Possible)  I've been ever impressed by that dog.  The last time I paid attention to Westminster was when Beau Sr was there.  Of course, he was right after Nemo and lost, but it's still good.  LOL 

    Good luck to all entries!

    EDIT:  And Trey's niece BISS Ch Caerleon Sunset Boulevard is showing in shelties, so I'll cheer for her as well.  ;)

    Colton's sire is there this year!  This year we didn't do a ton of showing of our dogs, so none of ours are there.  However, Colton did beat some dogs that did well at Westminster last year in his quest for his title!
