Oscar's activities

Flagfest
Oscar continues to travel around and gain lots of good social experience.  Here's our picture from the parade last week.  He did such a great job!  I was so proud of him.  He was quite a hit.  We continue to practice all of our showing techniques and have actually registered for our first show mid July.  Oscar is entered in the 6 to 9 month Mastiff puppy class.  Too bad he's saddled with me because I really have no idea what I'm doing.
But I've gotten lots of advice from my Iowa Great Lakes Kennel Club so I guess we will just show up and have fun.  Oh well.  Can't be too embarrassing right?  If I can show a horse, I would think I would be able to show a dog.  Here's more pics of us practicing...  Please note my fancy shoes...  I think I'll wear this special outfit when I show.  What do you think?  Ha ha.

All the practice is actually a lot of fun.  Molly and Rasmus didn't want to get left out so Molly gave it a shot.  She actually did excellent for a first try.  I was impressed with how well she listened...
This is easy!
Then unfortunately Rasmus gave it a shot...  What can I say..  A picture says a thousand words...
This is hard!  Now what am I supposed to do??
Yep, I can tell this isn't one of Rasmus's gifts...  He can shake, sit, and roll over so I guess that will have to be his niche.  haha..  Then after practicing for awhile, time to relax!
Looks like I lost my drink..  The boss decided he wanted it...  Wish us luck in Omaha July 16th and 17th.  We will need it!  Have a great weekend!  Father's day tomorrow so tell your Dad you love him!!  :-)
