On May 11th, 2025, Lizzy competed in her very first Veteran competition at the Scott County AKC dog show. She turned 8 years old 5/14/25 just 3 days after the show. She has not competed in conformation since October 2021 and performed as though she had never retired. She stayed perfectly still during the judge's examination and gaited around the ring in perfect form and correct speed. Clapping was very loud and Bernard and I were extremely proud of Lizzy's total performance. We are looking forward to another Veteran's competition in Lizzy's future.

Lizzy's first real dog show was on the BIG Stage at Boxer Nationals in May 2018. As would be expected at her debut, she was very exited about the experience. Professional handler, Sherry Canciamille, showed her for the first time and presented her beaitifully. Sherry was able to calm her with gentle, experienced hands and a reassuring spirit. Bernard and I thank Sherry for her skill and expertise at this big event.
Bernard showed LIzzy in UKC for the first time at the Illinois Toy Fox Terrier Assn shows held at Exposition Gardens in Peoria, IL, July 20-22, 2018. She performed very well and earned her Championship in that one weekend!!!
