:Julie on…heading for LA!!

Heading for LA!!
Tomorrow Fernando and I fly out to LA for the Eukanuba National.  This is a show where the top dogs are invited to show and 1 of the only shows that offers cash for prizes.  Best in Show will win $50,000!!!  The decision to attend this show did not come easy, as my friends who have had to listen to me debate my chances against my financial situation can attest to.  It came down to that Fernando and I at least deserve to give it a shot!! Fernando has proven himself as a top winning Lhasa from the first time he entered the ring at 7 months old and won a 5point major.  This past summer he was not having a lot of fun showing and I was about to make the decision to retire him but in the last 3 shows  Fernando has turned around and has been showing awesome.  If he can show as well at the Eukanuba as he did at these shows I will be proud of him. I’d appreciate any positive thoughts you can send my way on Saturday, Fernando and I should walk into the ring around 2:30 California time. Even after all this time I still get nervous!!!
