Show me! Show ME!

OH SO MANY MILLION apologies for not blogging earlier! To be honest, it's not really my fault. I'm the boy who's always SO WANTING to share my life with you beautiful world. Yeah, ALL OF IT! (Stop being dramatic Tris!) Anyhow, it's the lazy Mommy's fault. So yeap, I'm now SO FAR behind in what I wanted to share with you guys. :(

Ok, first thing first. I went for my first Doggie Show few weeks back. As I am totally new to this earthly world, they put me in this class called BABY PUPPY class. Oh well, I reckon the name says it all. It was an ooookkkk experience as far as the show is concerned cause all they do at the show is to make sure you 1)stand very STILL 2)WALK.

As you all know, these are 2 LEAST FAVOURITE activities of Border Collies, not to mention BABY PUPPY Border Collies! C'mon! What were you guys thinking? Hear this! We are bred to be lean, mean, jumping machines!!!

So obviously, I didn't win nothing. The few huskies in my class were all prim and proper, standing and strutting their best. I overheard Mommy said I look like a jumping jack that has gone bonkers standing beside them. Who cares?!?!? Serves her right for not respecting me for WHAT I'm supposed to be!!!

Anyhows, that was just ONE part of the show. The ooookkkk part. The FANTASTIC part is I got to meet my entire family! (oh well, less Mama Auzzie and one sister who couldn't make it) Yes, I met my entire doggie family! How cool is that?!? I know alot of my friends get separated from their kors kors and meis meis soon after birth and never meet their families again. I feel sad for them at times...

Ok, enough of reminiscing. That is not what Border Collies do! We live for the moment! So here I will post you some of my glory for all of you to admire! :)

I'm walking....
This is proof that MOI can walk!

I'm trying to stack here.
Mommy attempts to stack me....

How's my stack?!?!
I'm quite cooperative, aren't I? That's a nice little stack! But Daddy's grandpa camera just cannot take MY speed!! :(

I'm a touchy baby. Look at the smile on my face
I put on my BEST smile for Mr Judgy

Yo Mommy, your lap is too boney!
Once Mr Judgy left, I become Mommy's boy all over again.... That's my sister behind me!!! :)

Daddy Magic
Ok, enough of ME! This is Papa Magic! How's HE for a handsome Border Collie!

Magic's perfect stack
Papa Magic is a lean, mean STACKING machine, I'm telling you!! He can do a PURRRRFECT stack anytime!

Judge checks Magic
Look how beautiful that stack is! Head held high. Shoulders pulled back. PURRRRFECT! Tris, learn something!

Magic Walks
Oooh...I see. That's what WALKing is about!

Momo and family
That's my kor kor with his hooman family! He has perfect marking! VERY VERY handsome!!!

Starry Sister
And that's mei mei!!! She is a VERY pretty gal too!:)

I must personally thank my dear dear Godma Ernie for her wonderful blackbox and her blackbox handling skills. That's where all these pictures came from (except one!)Daddy got me all blurred up! Daddy, you should just R.I.P your blackbox! It is simply NOT FAST ENOUGH for me! I'm Tristan the lean, mean, jumping machine!!!!)
