This is a blog about the life and show career of Alexander, a young and wonderful yellow male Labrador, bred by Misty Mountain Labradors in Washington State. A son of Zeus and Misty born on November 24, 2009, he is a promising show dog with great personality and conformation. It is a joy to have him in our home and family.
Alexander is awarded Best Puppy at the Wine Country Kennel Club show on Saturday and got a chance to compete in the Puppy Sporting Group. With his new Handler, Jeff Heim, he is performing better and will become a formidable show dog. I am looking forward to future shows with this stunning and robust young Labrador!
The job of the handler in the show ring is to allow the judge to see the best aspects of the dog including movement and expression. Alexander is in training for conditioning and ring presence and is learning to stand still for exam, including looking at his teeth. He is a formidable Labrador.
