Chihuahuas

I would like to thank the committee for offering me this appointment. Thanks to the Midland Chihuahua Club for sponsoring the Chihuahua classes. A big thank you to all the exhibitors for their entries. I was a little bit disappointed with the quality of some exhibits but overall the majority was good.
