So we entered the Nationals for Rally Obedience. Because Milwaukee is 2 hours away, we had to get up at 5:30am to get ready. Now just because *I* was getting up at 5:30am doesn't mean Shelby was getting up...


Neither were my cousins....

I went to take a shower and was mortified to find a baby in there....

So off to the Nationals we go and we're greeted by this sign....

Some butt sniffing going on...

Shelby wasn't too happy that she had to have a moment in her crate...

Because our Rally class was the last one, I was messing with Shelby to occupy my time....


She decided to take a nap....

Here's some Bostons doing Obedience...


Here's some Bostons in the Conformation ring...




Shelby is patiently waiting her turn in Rally...


Here's Shelby with a friends Boston Terrier...



She really wanted to sniff his butt....

Here's another friends crew....

After a long day, we come home and thankfully, we came back in time for the Cubs vs. Astros game. As you can see in the background, Aramis Ramirez hit a home run...

Shelby was pooped....

But that didn't stop her from pestering Souffle, who was miffed that he didn't get to go to the Nationals....




Here's Shelby with her daddy, who missed the Nationals due to work...

Shelby, Farmer Ray, The Boy and Souffle...

This one really has nothing to do with all of this but Mr. Mojo Risin was intrigued by this stuffed animal Southern Flying Squirrel...

And on that note, guess who won First Place in Rally Novice A?
