The job completed, I stepped back and inspected her.
I was surprised at the change. Her short red hair glistened and every one was in perfect place.
Shaking my finger at her, I said, “If you lay down and roll, I’ll wear you out,” although I knew I wouldn’t.
Hearing a lot of movement outside, I looked out. Men were setting their dogs on a long table which had been built in the center of the campground.
Leading Little Ann to it, I picked her up and set her on the table, too.
I told her to act like a lady. She wagged her tail as though she understood.
I untied the rope and stepped back. After the dogs were all lined up, the judging started.
Four judges walked around and around the table, looking at them from all angles.
When one of them would point at a hound, he was taken down and eliminated from the contest.
Dog after dog was disqualified. Little Ann was still on the table.
My eyes were wide, my throat dry, and my heart thumping.
One judge stopped in front of Little Ann. My heart stopped, too.
