2021 Wooly Nationals were held in California due to Covid and RHVD issues instead of Reno, NV. For those that were able to rearrange their travel, hotel reservations, and transport on a short notice, I commend you. Congratulations to Amber Henderson for BOB, Angel Lesage for BOS in Open, and to Bettina Curletto for BOB and BOS in Youth.
Another summer is upon us; meaning very high temperatures on the menu for the South. It also means hurricane season is right around the corner. Normally, the season starts June 1. However, as I write this article, a weather group I follow on Facebook states that a tropical disturbance may be in the northern gulf as early as May 22, 2021. Although this article will be printed after May 22, it’s a perfect time to state to all to get prepared now for summer stressful weather events. Get those spare travel cages on hand in case of having to evacuate due to tornadoes, hurricanes, fires, or floods. I attended the TRPOA and LCRBA show in Muscle Shoals, AL the beginning of May. We had a small turnout of Woolies, but had 5 exhibitors of which a couple was fairly new to the breed. Wooly people always have a good time, and this show was no exception.
In looking forward to the future, I bred and have a few nest boxes with Convention hopefuls. With the quality of the Woolies I have been seeing on the show tables, Convention competition will be tough for 2021.
Please send me pictures, tips, and Best in Show wins. As always, I can normally be found on Facebook and messaging me is the easiest way to contact me.
