The first round of Nursery at Long Shot Farm was run Friday afternoon. The weather was pleasent but by the end of the class there were a few sprinkles. The class was won my Tom Lacy and Sis with a tie for 2nd between Tom Lacy's Belle and Renee Billadeau's Bette; Tom's Belle taking it on outwork. Here's the class, in the order that they ran (I believe).

Mark, you are getting so good with that camera. Every picture is better than the next.

I especially like that first pic of Tom's Belle.

Mark, Great shots. So a working shot and then a close up. Where's Bette's close up? I have had a thing for that dog since I first saw her puppy pic. Please don't tell me you didnt' take one. And Belle is gorgeous but then I am partial to red dogs.

Where's Bette's close up?

I didn't take as many of Bette, because I already have lots of her and want to give other dogs some attention.
