I think I did that in Houston with Pam who lives in Houston...she was sitting alone in the restruant and I asked my friend Linda Thompson if she didn't mind if I asked Pam to join us and she said of course so off I went and asked her to join us  She readily agreed and come and had a nice lunch with us and also came and sat with us ringside to watch other breeds that day
I remember meeting you in Chicago and not sure I introduced myself as there were many people there but I believe we finally met I hope I was nice.
Usually at all breed shows it's hard to see where the new yorkie people are since most of us already have reserved grooming and especially if it's a "BIG" all breed show with everyone so spread out sometimes it's hard to find a newbie. Of course I try and introduce myself to anyone I think is new but I'm just speaking for myself only and how I try and do. I"m a chatter box usually except at ringside before I go in because I guess I'm concentrating on showing my dog. I even chat while I'm grooming when someone comes and starts asking questions even though I'm trying to get my dog ready.
I understand how a newbie feels not knowing anyone but like we always say here we are trying to get our yorkie or dog ready to show and once we are done it's less stressful and that is when we have more time to speak to newbies or anyone actually. Getting ready to show can be alittle stressful so I hope newbies or anyone can understand that and try to be understanding as we try to be understanding as well I sure hope that made sense LOL

Donna, you've always been very nice
Last minute grooming is a stressful time for exhibitors and lots of questions after the Show are much more appreciated. I'm glad to hear that you welcome newbies so readily and actually approach them to wish them luck and offer help.
Carrie is a sweetie and was adorable when her dog won in Dallas! Everyone laughed when she hugged the judge.. LOL
