Dogs, cats and various pets were shown off Friday morning at the Mower County Fair for the 4-H dog, cat and pet show.
About 20 different animals were shown off by 4-H’ers and judged for ribbons.

The participants were tested on their knowledge and skill in handling a pet.
Ten-year-old Stella Johnson, first year participant of the show, brought in her Cairn Terrier, Quinn. She thought it went “pretty good,” though she didn’t know what to expect.
“He’s behaving well in here,” Johnson said about her dog.
Tysha Allen, 17, brought in her six-year-old cat, Midnight.
“It’s a lot of fun with good friends and good memories,” Allen said.
