[QUOTE="gallowaygirl, post: 589981, member: 8844"] We are in NW Washington, but it's not super cold. He's been that hairy since he was born, and it never shed out. I don't really have any [i]specific[/i] objectives, other than to get the word out about Galloways, as they are kind of rare around here. This will be my second year showing, but only my second show, if that makes since. We went to the County fair last year, and that was it. It was pretty intense, we were surrounded by Angus, dexters, and red angus, so obviously the crowd was dominated by a specific "type." I'm worried about getting first, second, or third, or last for that matter. We did fine in our Galloway classes (because we were the only ones in our breeds) but in Overall Bull and Overall Female we didn't do so well. We were fine with that though, we had fun, and learned A LOT!! Yes, they know I am going to be showing. We are going to the same show as last year (county fair) and will be going to the NILE (one of the major Galloway shows in the country) and maybe another fair or two in between those two. There is one other breeder near me, but she shows the Belted Galloways. She is my new "mentor", so hopefully she will be a wealth of information, as she is already proving to be. I'm not in 4-H or FFA, so that puts me a disadvantage, however, it also means that when I'm done showing, I'll get to take him home with me and eat him!! :banana: [/QUOTE]
