Were you able to ship the dog to the show? Dogs came from as far away as Hawaii, Japan, Alberta Canada and Italy. Did it require six days on the road to drive? Depends on where you live, but many drove from Oregon, Washington State, Ontario, Quebec, New England and the far south. I too love to fly to a dog show without a dog. That is what we are doing this year. Evan I guess I should have asked them if they also had to come through 6 of snow, uphill both ways. And we wonder why no one wants to play with us any more.
