"Hi - I am so sorry to bother the list with my trivial nonsense I am trying to enter my two pups in the Saturday show in Maryland. I did not know about close dates, etc. Long story short, does anyone have the contact information (ie., phone number, email )for the show secretary for the Saturday, German Shepherd Dog Club of Greater Washington. Or if anyone can direct me where to find this information as I can only seem to locate a mailing address. These are the first shows we are entering and obviously, I have a lot to learn. Thank you so much for any assistance. Lisa Urban" Lisa, If this is an AKC sanctioned show you cannot enter after the closing date for entries. There are quite a few reasons for having a closing date for entries, one of which is the show secretaries have to put together a catalog of the entries and have a judges book put together with assigned numbers. You can withdraw if there is a judges change before the show starts, move a dog up before the show, but you cannot enter the show after the close of entries. Sorry, but you'll have to just go and watch this time. We all have stories of how we didn't get entered, entries lost in the mail and such, but we didn't get to show our dogs. It certainly "happens".
