Stock Show 2010

So after you get done spending all the time teaching your cow (named "Rocky") to walk with you- he gets to go to the stock show. But, once here's there he needs to look his best. So.... Tyler gets to give him a daily bath...

But after his bath- he needs to look pretty and fluffed. So you get out his big hair dryer and style him up..
Of course after he gets duded up- it's tyler's turn to clean up. (takes alot less time) The fun part is keeping the cow clean until he goes in the show ring. You can't let him lay down, and if he poops... you get to wipe his butt (and yes I mean just that- raise his tail, take your wad of papertowels, and wipe)



When you get all done it brings a smile. They are judged the first day on showmanship (the kids) and the animal on the second day. The last day is the auction- where you have to say goodbye. Until you start all the fun again next year. (Tyler won a red ribbon- that's good for his first try)
