Davenport Show

Double Dutch's Casanova

Last weekend was the Davenport show. It was my first time going to an Inland Empire show, and my dad and I enjoyed it. It was a long drive (4 1/2 hours), but was in a different part of the state that I haven't been to before. Basically nothing but crops for over an hour of driving.
Friday night in the specialty, Lisa won BOB with her Gray buck. Rogue won BOS for her 5th leg. Casanova was beaten by Jan's senior buck, as the judge said he was still a bit young. However when he has something really promising, he likes to nickname them. Casanova was one of two Dutch nicknamed that night, the judge called him "Sharp". Jan's Blue jr doe was the other one that got a nickname.
In show A on Saturday, I think Rogue was BOSV... (hard to know the results when you're judging!). If so, that is leg 6. Casanova again got promising comments, but was said that he was too young. BOB went Jan's Black buck that's done quite a bit of winning these last few months! BOS was Jean's Best in Show winning Tort doe.
In show B, Casanova won Best of Breed! BOS went to a cute little Tort jr doe of Vicki's (different one than what's been winning for her). Her Tort doe went on to be Best of the Best Opposites!
For the fun of it, I stuck Casanova in the Breeders Choice competition during lunch. He end up winning it!
At the end of the show, my dad and I were talking, of the three shows-- 3 BOB's and 3 BOS's, it was 6 different rabbits to win, owned by 5 different breeders. State Convention next month is going to be extremely competitive!
