POWER IS A CONFORMATION SHOW DOG!
He has his AKC Championship and his UKC Grand Championship
Power is a pretty cute little show dog. He didn't get to practice by entering the Novice Puppy Classes, his Mom and Dad from Alpine Falls pushed him into the deep end and made him swim with the big boys!
Power started his show career with a big electric shock! He is a handsome boy and here he wins Best of Winners under a really smart judge. PowerBall is growing up. He has a really sexy booty the girls say!
PowerBall finished his AKC Championship with Ed and Karen out of the bred by class. Because of this, he was invited to attend the 2006 Eukanuba invitational show in Longbeach, California. Power was worried that he would be thrown out since he eats Pro Plan Sensative Skin and Stomach, but I guess no one told the show officials. Power had a great time sandwiched in between two dogs that were much older and bigger and stronger and more experienced. But, Power is the one that got all the girl's phone numbers and he had a great time wooing them with his sexy, strong ass. (I told him not to use that word. BAAAAD PowerBall!)
After Daddy Ed and Mommy Karen finally let me have the fat boy back, (yah, look who's talkin' eh?)he went to his first UKC show in which he earned his first majors with a Best Of Winners under Avril Black and a Best Male under Mike Pearson. Power finished his UKC Championship in four straight shows.
Thanks Cheryl Larum for the great photo! I hope this is the one that Mom Karen decides to paint of PowerBall. (Hey, Karen - can you paint him some underjaw?)
His second majors came from Judy Jones and Deborah Orwin. Power finished both his UKC Championship and his AKC Championship in the same month.
Thanks Alicia for the great photo!
Power's success in the UKC ring has been great!
With Ed at the wheel and the first time in the Champions Class, Power not only netted his first Champion win, but his first Best of Breed!
In his second Champion Class, Power earned a Reserve from Pam Purdue!
In his third Champion Class, Power earned his second leg under Lorraine Tayeb!
Later that afternoon, our little PB earned yet another Champion win and a Best of Breed under Joyce Lea-Hanson. Power also earned a group One and a Best In Multi-Breed Show that day under judge Mike Chamberland.
Power and I in an awesome Best In Show ring. The Aussie went Reserve and PB took the honors. I was so proud!
PowerBall is turning out to be a handsom and great little show dog.
Thanks Alicia for the great ring photos of PB! -- I KNOW you
love him!
I just LOVE this side shot of my wild guy and I in the ring. Isn't he pretty? I think so!
PowerBall's fourth Champion Class earned him another Reserve under Theresa
Werder!
PowerBall earned his
fourth Champion leg at the Volcano View Rat Terrier Show in conjunction with
the 2007 WA Classic under Pamela Moore!
Barbara Marin rounded out Power's conformation titles with a Champion win!
Thanks Avril, Mike, Judy, Deb, Lorraine, Joyce, Pam, and Barbara for making PB a GRAND!!!
As a Grand Champion, PowerBall is three for four! At the Cascascarde APBT Club show in November 2007, PowerBall earned his first total dog award with a Reserve Best in Show under judge Victoria Lovely.
Later that afternoon PowerBall earned his second BIMBS under Judge Pam Purdue.
Pam loved PowerBall's awesome Booty!
THANKS PAM! That
was a fun win!
Pam's is the small one, mine is the big one, PB's is the hard one!

AMAZING STUFF THAT POWERBALL
At the 2011 American Staffordshire Terrier Club of America National Specialty,
PowerBall earned his final leg toward his AKC CD making him eligable for the
ASTCA ROH award. Pictured is Karen Thomason (owner) Lydia Castagna (stud
dog owner and huge supporter of PowerBall) Me, Monica Davie (sponser of the
Highest Scoring Champion of Record Award PowerBall won), and Ed Thomason.
PowerBall did great things in Las Vegas!
The other truly AMAZING feat PowerBall pulled off at the specialty was earning the SECOND AWARD OF MERIT to his nephew Jam who won and his other nephew Phoenix who earned the first award of merit. We were truly excited and honored to be selected from the approximately 150 other dogs who showed. Team Alpine got a little scared for a moment there when it looked like PowerBallLess might win it all. Thanks Ed and Karen Thomason for your support, thanks Karen for showing up for the picture. Thanks to Lydia for her undying belief that PB could be half as good as his daddy. Thanks too to Aaron Bradshaw for helping PowerBall feel real special by taking him out with the rest of the dogs and making him feel like a real show dog. Thanks too for laughing WITH us and not AT us!
