Today is Nash's 6 month birthday and spent it at the largest dog show in Ohio - the Richland Kennel Club Show at the Cleveland IX Center with 2,674 dogs in attendance. He took 1st place in the 6-9 month Puppy Class and Reserve Winner with 10 male Ridgebacks in the ring!
He was handled by Ridgeback breeder Charles Pike (in red jacket) of the Cleveland area. He helped Nash relax and leap his way to Reserve Winner. Thank you for everything, Chuck! You were great!
Special thanks to Judge Mrs. Karin B. Ashe for seeing how special Nash is.
Here are the winners of the four classes. See Nash on the far right? Just a puppy but not afraid of the big boys. Not the best stack, but what a great chest, handsome head, and great feet! How special to win Reserve Dog (second place) with such great dogs in the ring.
