These are the first photos I have of Stout in a trial :) Of course, I bought all Porter's photos too. I'm kind of a photo junkie...
Anyway, today we are going to do a little photo comparison between the two :)
Exhibit A: A normal table performance-
A small hop onto the table...
Followed by a "down" as he waits to be released
Exhibit B: Stout's table performance-
A giant leap onto the table...
Followed by another giant leap off the table to greet the judge...
Back onto the table...
Assuming the "down" position...
"Good Boy!"
5 seconds is a really long time to lie down...
Maybe a sit is ok...

Did Porter always give that performance, even in the early days? Stout is just showing how a baby dog does it.
ReplyDeleteLord knows...Jimmy remained in the baby phase for far too long :-)
I honestly can't remember :) I do know I had a lot of trouble getting Porter to sit on the table (back when we had different positions). He would always lie down or stand.
DeleteAt this point, I am thrilled with whatever Stout does in the ring! As long as he is running and not peeing! Or humping! :)
