Albany was one of the better National sites I've seen.....for just
about everything. I don't know about Obedience,
but the herding people absolutely raved about that venue and it would
draw a lot of Herding people again.
The arena was perfection. The great Hotels were literally just about
across the Street. Beautiful grassy grounds
everywhere......
The only thing that was an issue for the East was they did have to fly
into Seattle......as Portland was not that
simple coming into from the East. Seattle is a main hub for one of
the best airlines for shipping dogs.....but I
don't know how far East Alaskan Airlines flights.....but I just
quickly checked and Alaskan has one direct flight to:
Houston, Tx.....Chicago...Atlanta....Phillie....Minn./St. Paul.. I
did not check the size of the aircraft....as this was
just a quick check.

Michelle -
Lots of national clubs use Albany because it is so user friendly.
If the GSDCA said that Albany no longer does nationals it is because
someone does not want to go there regardless of expenses.
No problem - the Aussies had a great time as did all others who hold
their shows there.
Headed for the Briard National's education program tonight. Yes,
another National in Portland, Oregon.
But in order to hear the information someone has to be willing to
listen. The GSDCA if convinced that they are right to stay in St Louis
and membership be damned. So the damned members are quitting. Keep it
up and you can hold the show in someone's backyard and have room to
spare.

Wow a drive in under a day.... wouldn't the Midwest people be
jealous... but I think we could get a Unicorn parade with FB BBQing
all meals (for those in doubt that man CAN BBQ... if I wasn't allergic
to marriage I would marry him for just and they still wouldn't move
the show back west of Purina....
Wishful thinking Kay... I am sure there is something wrong with a

I am officially on TEAM FB....

What was posted was that the Albany site is no longer available.
understand they also have obedience, rally, agility and herding. If
this is true then it would be great if the GSD clubs and people who
live in the area would look into it and make a report to the Board.
I loved the National in Albany and would be thrilled to return!!
