NMRE's Memorial Weekend Campout

5/30/2025

Beautiful weather for this weekend show! Usually NMRE hosts this show in July and its HOT HOT HOT. But this memorial weekend seemed to be the most perfect weekend to host this show at this venue. Its a small venue, but its absolutely beautiful. There is a playground, you can fish in the river, green grass on the grounds, a fire pit and the couple that run the grounds are just the greatest people! So sweet!

We had a great turn out. I do wish there were more Mini Lops, but there were a few from Katie's Daughter, Carla, Marylin and Mary. Here are the results below!

Flathead Kennel Club Fun Match May '25

5/22/2025

Kassie & I decided to take the opportunity to go to this fun match in hopes of getting in some extra practice and learn even more. Of course we took Odin as we really want to focus on him this year, but we also brought Torvi. Torvi has shown a few times, but seems to really not care too much for it.

Torvi & Odin were the only Dachshunds that entered the show. So you can guess who won.

Odin went on to win breed, and then group (we were also the only hounds). In the final ring, for Best In Show, there were three dogs. Odin was one of them. Odin won Reserve in Show!

There is definitely a lot more to learn, and a lot more practice to be had. For sure we know we need to work with holding the leash, and not being so sloppy. Work on gaiting, and finding that perfect pace to show off those muscles. Learn to relax when showing and not be so tense. And most importantly....we need to work daily with the dogs! This is super hard to do when Kassie works and lives three hours away.
