The Bench Show part of the Purina Race has been quite a battle this year, especially for two of the current front runners. Allen's Little Gold Magic and Shawnee Hills Beaujolais have battled neck and neck throughout the course of this year. The most recent Purina Points Show at the Premier Dog Show in Kalamazoo, Michigan, an inagural event for both the bench show and Purina status, saw Bo take top honors in the Grand Male category, which evened the score once again for the I don't know how many times. Several, to say the least. The leaders will take their 35 point advantage over third place County Line Kreuger into next weekend's National Redbone Days events in Holmesville, Ohio.
