We need more mentors of people for the showing of dogs. Mentoring is
more than just telling them about shows. It is also about taking
them with you - to the show, to fun matches, to dinner, to just
sitting around at shows and laughing and talking.
Sometimes, you get tired of the company, the expense, etc. This is
all mitigated by the joy of their first win, their first champion, etc.
