Not sure if this has been requested before!
Having a bit of a neurotic mummy moment as i have Belle entered at the Southern PUK Winter champs at end of month in a Summer champs qualifier and i'm wondering if she's looking well enough for it. She will be up against all breeds 1,2,3 yr olds so expecting there to be some very well grown youngsters out!
Soooo those of you with two year olds can i see some piccies please!!!

Xabi IS well-grown (and a hormone filled colt) and this is also a very flattering photo of him,i took it on friday. I wouldn't worry about Belle, she'll be just fine!!! Just treat Puk like any other show just a few more rings going on and enjoy it!  ETA I've just seen your profile pic on facebook Shell! You've nothing to worry about, she looks fantastic!! Really well-grown and gorgeous. |

I have a rising 2 year old and I was pleased with him until I saw Anna's Xabi  In Talisman's defence he's actually only 18 months old as he was born very late in the year, but you can see he still has lots of maturing to do : Not great photos (filthy pony/long way away/winter fur) but they're the most recent ones I have and they should help to make a comparison: This one makes him look more solid than he actually is - I think he's "concertinered" in trot   Stabled and looking very babyish and leaner :  We also have hormone-filled moments  Now Belle has got to be better behaved than that  I wouldn't worry Shell - just go for it and have fun. She's a beautiful girl and looks perfect for her age imo. |

ROFL - she's not impressed is she?
Shell - I think Belle looks gorgeous. Hope you have fun!
What a handsome chunk Xabi is! He looks very mature in that pic. And Talisman looks lovely too - none of them look all that babyish.

LOL...I think the flies have more of her attention than Tali Honestly Shell, you won't have any problems with showing Belle. She's looking really good for a 2 year old. Besides, just consider it to be showing experience. I don't think Blossom would have done very well in a class up against 3 year olds. Actually I think such classes are very stacked against a year or two year old as a lot of 3 year olds are very mature in my opinion. Pouncing her bucket  Blossom's always stayed fairly well proportioned, but she was very lean at the same age as Belle.   |
