| Just curious I came across something that I thought was interesting and was wondering if anyone experienced in showing could give me more input on the subject. With the high cost of dog shows does anyone ever get a sponsor for their dog? How would that work? Here is the article I found on the internet that got me to thinking about it? I know people sponsor race car drivers and athletes so what about dogs?

It's usually done in a co-ownership agreement as with Chandler, then there are several dogs that Bill Cosby has co-owned and of course other celebrities have done the same.

| I have a client that had a Black and Tan Coonhound that was sponsored by Purina while he was being specialed. I don't know how Kathy pulled that off though.

| I know many of the top show dogs have one or more co-owners. I know that would help with the costs. I can see how a co-ownership would work but I wonder how you would work it with just a regular sponsor that is not a co-owner. Maybe if the dog owner had a website and they let the sponsors advertise for free on their website. I just don't know. Tami, that would be interesting to know how the Purina sponsorship worked. Hopefully the dog did not have to eat the food. |

| I didn't know that kind of thing happened either but a few weeks ago, someone on here mentioned something like that. That she needed to get backers or something. I'll have to go and see if I can find the thread..... |

| I was asked to sponsor once. $10,000 and I'd get free stud services.
