Well.. lets see.. here are the ribbons Riot has in his "drawer" at the moment..
First I'll explain Conformation to everyone who doesn't fully understand it as far as the "winning" system goes.
You start out in your dogs age group also divided into the sex of the dog..
6-9 months
9-12months or
12-18 months
Then any dog that is older then 18 months goes into the "open" catagory or "Canadian bred" etc.
Then, those winners go into the "Open" class that can also be filled with Specials(dogs that are finished their Ch title).
You compete in that class for the Best Male and Best Female.
Then you compete for the "Best of Breed", "Best of Winners" and "Best of Opposite Sex".
ONLY the Best of Breed will move on to the next ring.
The Best of Breeds then compete against each other for the Best of Group. All dog breeds are divided into groups - herding, sporting, working etc etc.
Then, which ever dog wins from group will go on to compete in the Best of Show Ring, which is basically All of the 7 Group winners competing against each other.
There is also a "Puppy" ring that competes as well with the same idea as well.
So.. here are his accomplishments.
