Well I honestly don't know how horses all over the world get to ANY show!!
Must be trailered or train or ships??  It's a different world than our dog 
world.
First ya gotta be a millionaire.....<G>
With dogs....it's fly or drive with #400 or #500 crates.   The site itself 
sounds
glorious.....it's getting there with a dog that is worrisome.   Can get to 
Louisville
but only through Atlanta or Minneapolis with a short connecting flight.
We can get to Columbus, Ohio .....but all flights are a connecting flight going
through Atlanta, Chicago or Denver or possibly Dallas if American has one.
It's those sneaky little connecting flights with a dog that could pose a 
problem.
Same old, same old........     How far is that site from Chicago or Atlanta??
