Some shows are still good size, not always.
Last year here in East Tennessee over 70 dogs came to see Twyla M. and Chris W. 
(This year only 25)
I enjoyed my horse show days, I hope you did the same.

Wow Tami that's exactely the kind of thing I wish I could have been apart of... 
would give anything to hear some good stories and how people got into GSDs, 
etc, etc, etc. And to see the large entries of dogs. It's getting more pitiful 
as the years go by. I've had GSDs 40 yrs� of my life, good sound pet dogs 
that had longivity and health. back in the 70s and 80s I was showing my horse 
instead. Wish I knew about dog shows back then. I'm having fun with my little 
boy now but I realize it's different now. Wishing and hoping some of those days 
will come again. Thanks for sharing.

I remember my first dog show ever, it was in 1979 at the Monroe Kennel Club. 
Jim Norris was judging. I probably still have the catalog somewhere. There were 
55 males 63 bitches and 6 specials! Now THAT was a dog show! I remember an all 
breed puppy match in Shepard Mi had a GSD entry of 93, the GSD club of Detroit 
puppy match always was an EVENT with around 80-100 dogs or so. I remember 2-4 
puppy bitch class once Mimi Saltz judged where the puppies were lined up the 
entire circumference of the ring.26 of them! I remember it distinctly as my 
puppy T-Ho's Strip Tease(ch Ekolan's Wracker x my Zeto of fran jo daug , T-Ho's 
Randida of Woodside CD,TC,ROM)Strippymon won that huge class! 
As late as the early 90s we talked a all breed club into giving us a scecialty 
judge for their yearly winter match and we had 113 puppies one year! Ah yes 
those were the days! 
We had training classes and worked each others dogs, helped each other work 
through problems, got together and watched national videos, had new Champion 
parties and mourned our friends lost dogs. Memorials were always put in the 
review or club catalog .members often held parties after specialities or 
futurities at their homes and you could learn buckets of history just listening 
to the long time breeders talk. I picked up so much over a delicious spaghetti 
dinner listening to Fred Migliore talk about back in the day! Listening to the 
McCoys talk about old times and heard about a small group of fanciers getting 
together and co breeding a litter splitting the expense so they all could get a 
well bred dog. 
It seems like just a little while ago that all this was going on. I had 
just�  put a high in trial from novice A with a 1971/2 score on my 9 imonth 
old Cori & had just saved a whole year an a half to buy my foundation bitch 
Randida. I guess the best way to realize how long ago it was is the fact that 
Ann Schultz had not yet finished a Champion! I miss our big shows and fun�  
social' time of the�  past. Sure hope it goes full circle and comes around 
again. 
Hey anybody want to work dogsThursday???
