That makes sense. I know I will see my two in the most perfect light. The only two breeders I know in my area bred my puppies and might also look at them more favorably. So, an unbiased view would be appreciated.
I'll start going to shows in February -- sooner if I can find anything nearby. After a few, I should know if this is for me. It is still too soon to know if my two are going to be show or breeding quality -- but the more I know, the better decisions I can make.
