[Bedlington-L] Rally Brag

Today Quincy and I were entered in the International Kennel Club Dog Show held at McCormick Place in Chicago. In case you are not familiar with this show, it is the largest dog show in the Chicago area, consisting of all breed, agility, obedience and rally obedience competitions with many dogs entered in multiple events. In Rally Excellent B, Quincy scored the only 100 and earned first place. In Rally Advanced B, he scored the only 100 and earned first place. In each event, he also had the fastest time of any dog. This is his 9th (of 10) legs towards his RAE2 title. Once again he beat some of the top obedience, agility, and confirmation dogs in the area. I heard several people say that they were glad Quincy was only entered in the show on Friday!

From what I can gather, this did happen (although the instances I have heard about happened a good 15 years ago) But hang on a minute, Bedlingtonworld UK division is a community of limited size - one could almost say incestuous - How could such jiggery pokery take place without someone somewhere being suspicious?

Its's just a thought.
