I had entered a dog a while back and AKC claimed his paperwork was not official with AKC at the date of the show, and was asked to return the ribbon and his placing was dis-allowed. I would imagine the same procedures will apply. You are correct. All dogs must be Champions of record at the time of entry of show, Finishing at the show does NOT count. I've explained this three times now. Helen Miller Fisher ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2010.
