9-04-04 Somerset Kennel Club in North Branch, NJ. 43 Old English Sheepdogs were registered in the show.

Even with a Dramamine, Rescue Remedy and no breakfast, Frank still managed to Barf on the way.

Ringside grooming in the Old English Sheepdog tent.

This sheepdog kind of summed up the hot day.

Getting some grooming pointers from Frank's breeder Catherine Cargo of Capricorns Old English Sheepdog Kennel and who has kindly volunteered to be my OES mentor.

Frank wants down from the table badly.

Last minute primping.

Lining up for the judge.

Getting judged. Only a couple more years until Frank can be a "real" contender.

Frank's PAPA

Frank's sister Gilian

Angela Stein, another veteran OES person who was kind enough to critique & shape up Frank a couple of days before the show and her dog pup who is 1 day older than Frank.
