Had No Idea What To Expect...Ended Up Having A Great Time


 Something on the Box Elder County Instagram post earlier in the day caught my attention. 

Saturday, August 13, 2022, 9AM 4H Dog Show in Small Indoor Area

We thought we'd give it a shot.

We're glad we did.

I thought the 4H Dog Show in Small Indoor Area was exactly what it turned out to be...kids showing off their dogs and their dog-controlling skills. But, it could have been anything, As soon as we stepped in the fairgrounds building, we knew what it was...all the apparatuses gave it away.

We arrived a little late so we didn't see all the competitors. We did see some short dogs, and some taller dogs. After each group, they announced to the helpers to raise the jumps higher and higher. The next group of dogs set about to run the course in as short as time as possible, all the while obeying their trainers.

I've only seen this type of competition on television. Must have been the big leagues because the dogs on the TV really flew. Of course, these were highly trained animals no doubt competing for cold card cash and prestige. We saw kids and dogs competing for ribbons and pride.

I think I liked the version we saw better.

Glad I found the info...glad we decided to check it out.
