Wouldn't it be nice to be able to afford to go to both next year?

(Meanwhile, I'm glad I didn't get the "rules" <BR/>before posting!)<BR/><BR/>Pamela, Melanie, there are so many beautiful sheep on the east coast I can't imagine there not being as many shows (if not more!)!<BR/><BR/>Lisa, they do walk around with the sheep....I haven't been to many sheep or goat shows so I don't know the "usual". So many of my Shetlands were already halter broke and it's a pleasure moving them around it would be easy to show them. I don't have any idea what breed that one sheep was except that he was huge in all departments! It was hard not to giggle and point at the myriad of sheep testicles to be seen! (just ask Mary who I coerced into taking the pics.....)<BR/>Mary, yes we definitely will go back next year!! (can you help me pick VM out of my sheeps wool before showing?) :)Gone2theDawgshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07138393137324890048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4657773043863858033.post-68092461784240610762008-10-01T08:55:00.000-07:002008-10-01T08:55:00.000-07:00Great show and so good to see you again.

I really want to learn to wet and needle felt. Let's go again next year and bring sheep.

Yummy!<BR/><BR/>I enjoyed seeing all the great pics of the sheep and attentive owners, too. Is that a Sheep Show thing: Crouching, in comparison to standing and walking with say, goats?<BR/><BR/>I bet it's difficult to walk a sheep anyway. I've tried to get mine to walk on lead many times, and they will balk even when we are going where they want to go! haha<BR/><BR/>That one sheep with you is HUGE. What breed is it?<BR/>And OM goodness! Are all ram's testicles THAT HUGE!!<BR/><BR/>Yikes!<BR/><BR/>~LisaLaughing Orca Ranchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03562627840013868980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4657773043863858033.post-4062356242909290942008-09-30T04:39:00.000-07:002008-09-30T04:39:00.000-07:00Well, my favorite picture is the one of Michelle l...Well, my favorite picture is the one of Michelle leading the "reluctant" sheep back to its pen.

The camera hates me, and the feeling is mutual. Kinda like dentists, except they like me because I bring in money....<BR/><BR/>I do hope you come to BSG and OFFF next year, but Franna says that health certificates to bring sheep from WA to OR are really expensive. You have even more shows, although smaller ones (better chance of winning!), in your neck of the woods.<BR/><BR/>Hug Valentine good-night for me. I got home late from a meeting and learned that Butter took grain from Rick's hand tonight. She hasn't done that for me yet.... :-(Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01550786937196525098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4657773043863858033.post-83418534417063835602008-09-29T21:13:00.000-07:002008-09-29T21:13:00.000-07:00Love the title :) great minds do think alike!

It is great fun even if you don't win, of course winning is more fun ;) Great seeing you again and having a chance to chat!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4657773043863858033.post-8657678108585514592008-09-29T20:51:00.000-07:002008-09-29T20:51:00.000-07:00Sounds like you had a great weekend.

I felt that way the whole time I was showing goats at the fair. This body has a harder time getting up and down.goatgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05753367360714853700noreply@blogger.com
