Haven't had time for the List for a few days....but this is one of the first
posts I
found
tonight when I logged on.
CONGRATULATIONS to all of us for having a National Show Chairman that is right
on top of things and a problem solver.
We cannot personally use USAir anyway as it does not service our
airport.........but
this problem was crucial to many for getting many dogs to our National.
THANK YOU NANCI NELLIS for a JOB WELL DONE!!! YOU GO GIRL!!
At least there will be more dogs there for us to watch!! <G>

Many of you have contacted me about the US AIRWAYS ban on carrying dogs as
cargo or
excess baggage after October 31, 2005. This is a critical blow to our National
Specialty exhibitors and handlers. I have been in serious negotiations with US
AIR
executives and management for the past 72 hours. I explained to them the
hardship this
would place on our members since one of the reasons we chose this site was
because it
was a US AIR hub whose policy it was to carry animals. They have come through
for us
in an unbelievably grand manor. They even increased the weight allowance just
for our
GSD. I am pleased to report to you the following:
