Just a little Sako brag, plus some pictures of some lovely APBT's.
At the show, Sako pulled 1,249lbs., 24.5% times his body weight, just .5% away from a 15pt. pull! I was told he had gotten it (takes 25%), so I withdrew him, but a few hours later they came and told me they had made a mistake and he hadn't gotten it. We tried again, but starting out that high and after such a long break was a bit too much for him and he wasn't thrilled. He did pull it, I believe it was 1,350lbs., but it was after the timer stopped. Oh well, now I know for next time! Considering we only practiced at home one time in the last few months, I'm super proud of him, it's the most he's ever pulled.
Here are a couple pictures (sorry if they're huge, I'm pulling them off FB) and a video that my friends took of Sako:
Video! You might want to turn your volume down, I'm a little obnoxious LOL.

Did a few photo shoots at the show, so here are a few of those dogs.
This is Cleo, she just turned 6 months and won multiple BOB's & Group 1's over the weekend:
And Juno, who also won multiple BOB's, Group 1's, and I believe 2 BIMBS, as well as the overall "Best of the Best" for the weekend (they bring in all of the dogs that won BIS over the weekend and they compete for that title). She's not even a year old yet! So yeah.. we all got our butts whooped by a bunch of puppies this weekend in conformation!
Juno's mom, Peach. She showed in altered this weekend and got BIMBS altered!
And last but not least, Pepsi. I showed this girl in conformation most of the weekend.. she's a blast. She only needs 2 more legs in obedience before she'll have her UKC Super Dog title.
Hope you enjoyed. It was a really fun weekend with a HUGE APBT entry for this show, I believe 14-15 total all 3 days. I got to meet SevenSin's Jiggles & Turtle too, who are both just adorable!
