GCH CH SUGAR BAY'S BERINGER WINS BOS AT WESTMINSTER KC DOG SHOW NYC

We had such a good time in NYC. I loved it!
When we stood for our National Anthem, as we always do before a show starts in the morning, I looked out the windows to the tall city buildings where the Twin Towers used to be. It was an emotional experience. Beringer won Best of Opposite Sex. Such a great dog! I'm grateful. Couldn't love him more.



Getting ready for photos.

GCH CH WW 12 SUGAR BAY’S BERINGER WINS BEST BRED BY EXHIBITOR

Beringer and I went to the AKC National Championship in Orlando Florida the week of Dec 12th 2016. This photo was taken on Dec 17, 2016. He went for three days going into the ring and not putting his tail up, which is not a wining thing to do! Then when it was the very last competition, Best Bred By Exhibitor on the very last day of showing. We were waiting to go into the ring and I let him sniff the liver I had in the palm of my hand and told him he could only sniff it but couldn’t have it. It must have jogged his brain and he was more interested in what he couldn’t have than noticing where he was. His tail came up and it was the old Beringer and he won! Judge Ed Bevin was wonderful and I had a good laugh at his comment on Beringer’s tail. It was a great trip after all!
