Does anyone have more information on the Purina National? When are the Sheepdogs showing?

Hi Peg,

The entries for this show close this Wednesday, so we will not know what time the OES are going to be on until we receive the judging schedule, which is usually about a week after the show closes. The Old English Sheepdog & Owners Club are holding a booster on Saturday, so it would be great to have people come to cheer on the OES. I am in charge of the booster so if you have any specific questions just ask :) I have two dogs entered on Saturday for the booster.

Also, CityTv's Breakfast Television is going to have a segment on the Purina National on March 10th. I will be on the show with one of my guys showing how to groom an OES for the show ring.

I will post the judging times on this thread as soon as I get them.
Thank you Amber!

Mark & I are going to go and cheer. I'll make sure we find you, somehow.

I've marked the CityTv Breakfast Show on my calendar, we'll tune in for sure!

Sounds like fun! Have a great time. We would love to see pictures!!
Amber what time are you on tv tomorrow??

Hope the weather improves for your drive in to Toronto tomorrow morning ...ice rain and slushy snow suck.

Hi Peg,

I am up and almost ready. I have to be at the studio by 6:30am. I am not sure what time my segment is on.

Looking forward to meeting you Saturday at Purina.

The OES are on at 3:00pm.
I wish I was in Canada...I would be there. I also wouldn't miss my breeder on TV. Yeah Amber!!!
Please post a link to the news story!!

Good luck at the show, Amber :cheer:
Here is a link to the Breakfast Television segment promoting the Purina National that my pup Suzy & I were on this morning.

We were on at 7:50 am, so you might want to fast forward a bit.

Here is a link to some photos taken.

I can't see the video :(
I get the web page, but the spot the video should play at is just a black rectangle. If I click on it from the smaller box below, nothing happens.. :evil:

I could see the pictures though!
I could look at the photos, but I couldn't get the video to work. It just gives me an error reading. Maybe it won't play in the USA.

That may be. I know from the eagle webcam I watch, the pbs.org documentary about this pair is blocked for Canadian viewers - maybe it works both ways :evil:

Amber - can it be downloaded to youtube, then posted???
Oh that sucks........I will see what I can do.
Way to go Amber...good segment! :clappurple:

Mark & I are looking forward to Saturday. See you then.

Haha I like the dog before yours I think a Shar Pei, question from the host "so what's involved in grooming one of these?" "Not a whole lot, pretty low maintenace". Next up, a Sheepie in show coat! :D
OK, so we know the Canadians CAN view it!! :lmt: :lmt:
LOL...I love you Dawn. I read that and said to myself..."well, the Canadians can see it anyway"
Wendy...I've posted the segment on Facebook...check out Suzy and Amber @ 7:50.

Still trying to figure out how to post it here for EVERYONE to see it!!!! :lmt:
Barbara...it still won't play here in the United States. All I get is a black screen and an error reading. Nothing from the breakfast shows will run here.
Shoot...time to call in the kids to figure this one out!!!
Amber got it posted on Facebook and it worked for me. Check her Facebook and see if you can transfer it here.
Here's a few of the pictures from Saturday's Purina National Dog Show

Thanks Barb for sharing the photos! They are all great.

Just wanted to make a correction that the 4th photo is not Shooter......it is in fact Shagshadow's Ruby Tuesday with handler Will Alexander.

It was great seeing everyone :)
Mark & I had fun. Good photos Barbara. Amber it was cool to watch you in the ring. :clappurple: Amber, pups??
