Thanks, Barb!!
I always have fun because I love her and she's my dog! Plus, I have never
missed a Westminster since I could remember!! Just love the whole thing....
But, now, I am trying to figure out what blow dryer to buy as, apparently, I
will need one!! I was told it makes more sense to groom her myself than
continue bringing her to a groomer every time I want to show. As a side note,
when do you all groom before a show? Day before?
Thanks,
Sara
