Bling at the Dog Show - Irish Setter Club of America National Specialty

By

 Bling has been so busy meeting people at book events, she just has not had time to go to dog shows.   She really loves dog shows, but there is only so much time in the day.   

It has been a lifetime goal for Bling to retire from dog showing at a National Specialty in the veteran classes.   She was entered in the 9 to 11 year old girl classes.   To our delight, she won 4th place.   To everyone's delight - she decided to jump and play in the ring.   She has been sick and there are a few places on her front legs that were shaved by the doctors and her hair is still growing back in.  We are thankful it did not matter to the judge.   Bling ran around the ring like she was a year old.   

Bling always makes us smile.   She is a rollicking Irish Setter and has fun no matter what she does.

As of this dog show, she is officially retired from showing and turns the dog show events over to her younger house mate and best friend, Bliss.

Thank you to all her were there and clapped for her.  Bling is absolutely a precious dog.    Every day with her is a blessing.

I bought a autographed copy of your first book for my 3 year old grandson. His sweet Dad just sent me these two texts this evening and I thought you would enjoy seeing them.   My son loves the Bling Irish setter book you got him, we’ve read it by demand every night lol   He literally loves this book lol. He told me tonight that the books meaning to him is that if something is scary that we have to be brave in his own 3 year old way after we read it tonight. He was going through a little scared of the da

Bling's Book Review - Do Unto Otters, bu Laurie Keller

Hi Kids, I am going to start doing a weekly book review.  There are so many GGGGRRRREAT books out there.   I wish we could read them all.  This week, my book review is on " Do Unto Otters " by author, Laurie Keller .  The book is fabulous.   Of course, the first thing I enjoyed was the cover and all the illustrations of ANIMALS.  I LOVE animals.  On the cover, Ms. Keller writes this book is, "A Book About Manners."   You know, learning great manners is one of those things that we can never stop learning about.  The older we get, the more we try, and the more we care about others, will all teach us to have the best manners possible.   Manners might not seem important now, but they are.  Believe me when I tell you this!!   The book starts out with Otters moving to the animals' neighborhood in the forest.  All the other animals are worried about the Otters.  The other animals were worried that the Otters would not have good manners.   The animals hoped the O
