"when and if a handler is needed, the expense may be a little more...LOL"

I have looked back at the money I have spent trying to finish Deuce and I am covinced that a handler is cheaper. I have been showing him for 1 1/2 and I still need 2 singles. I don't know about the competition in other areas of the country but, here in the South, the show rings are full of beautiful dogs. I showed for Ann Hearn last year in Hampton, VA and she stood in the middle of the ring and told us that the she was having a hard time choosing because all the dogs in that Open class were beautiful and deserved the points. |
