2009 Encinitas NCD: Large, Kids in Charge

We had 34 -- a new record -- this year, including 14 children (41%)! Again the kids were the difference makers this year. 10 y.o. Eamonn R. had 7 dogs. Mia T. ate more than her age (a 4:3 ratio). Unfortunately for Charlie, the kids held on to their dogs this year, he only got a remnant of Margot D's corndog. Duke and Gonzaga provided some quality drama, helping us polish off all the dogs with seconds to spare. No 3x2's this year, but the temp tattoos and magnets were a hit (nice touch Brady!).
