I'm about to leave for Spring Nats. I will be at the awards banquet and the show. Please look for me if you're there - ....I will be wearing a gold Tee-shirt with colorful teepees on the front at the banquet and a tie die T-shirt with a multi-color spiral on front and back. (If it's cold indoors, I will be wearing a rust/red cotton jacket that has appliqued batik elephants on it (long enough to hide my fat butt). I'm over 50 and I need to lose about 50 pounds -especially under that double chin that's creeping up on me My mouse-brown, approx. shoulder length hair looks like I stuck my finger in a light socket, and I have a blaze. Oh, I also wear wire-framed glasses. I will be there with Linda Gurule if you know her. I should be hard to miss with my stunning looks ;D ;D ;D   Hope to see you there! -jennifer |

Good luck Renee. Has Haley actually won the level or is she still competing against the other 3, or is she one of the top 3? I'm sorry, I have no experience with showing or anything like that, but any way it works, it looks like your little Haley is a very special little fuzz (I think she is anyway  ) ciao |

I'm sorry, I have no experience with showing or anything like that, but any way it works, it looks like your little Haley is a very special little fuzz (I think she is anyway ) ciao Yes Hailey is one of the top 3 Black Sables in the country. I am not sure of her rank yet but will find out at the banquet, and yes she is competing against 2 others. She had to out beat alot of ferrets to get there! Its a hard class to compete in, one of the toughest specialty's right now. So either way is great and I'm proud of her! Especially because she is 1)out of the top black sables she's the only "American" ferret - the others are of recent import. and 2) She's out beat alot of the breeders ferrets 3) it was her first show season and just a kit! Here is the top 3 Black Sables (not in a particular order) JBF's Booty Call (Calli) - Vickie McKimmey FPWC's Marion - Susan Mentzer & Joe Hahn GFX's Sin City Strip Teaser - Renee Dierfield |

hailey is a finalist for black sable ferret of the year...oberon doesn't mind one bit that his relative is better looking than he is
he especially doesn't mind cuz he hit gold!! and boo boo hit platinum!! they're both getting their certificates friday. they get points for each judging and they're cumulative (not sure if just for year or across years, tho).
and these certificates are DIRECTLY due to them being on raw!!!
obi is so long that keeping good muscle tone on him was so difficult and boo, being adrenal for one and then getting sick/going anemic and almost dieing, he had absolutely nothing when it came to muscle tone. neither ever did particularly well in placements at shows and certainly not consistantly, either - until being on raw, that is! i'm glad boo hit the top level as this will be his last year to show (he'll be six in may and can't show after he's 6 1/2).
taco is a finalist for chocolate ferret of the year and grizel is a finalist for roan ferret of the year. so, everyone here is excited!!
jennifer, loved the description of yourself - woulda been easier to just post a pic of yourself tho 
as for finding me, i'll the be easy to spot - just look for the frazzled chick with long brown hair & glasses running around frantically (i've got 7 ferrets showing and inevitabley, 5 need to be in different places at the same time, lol). i'll have 4 of them with me at the dinner. i'll be wearing purple (surprise-surprise) at the dinner and probably also at the show...
