I got interested in showing after meeting a woman in my puppy kindergarten
class that showed. She invited me to a puppy match and away I went!! Over the
years I see an increased interest in dog shows as evidenced by the Westminster
show on TV, the Eukaneuba show, and the National Dog show on Thanksgiving day.
Maybe we should encourage these programs to spend a little more time talking
about junior handling, how to get into "showing " dogs, and how to find dog
show near you... We can contact our local papers and ask them to publicize
local dog show events. I know we get a pretty good crowd at the Denver shows,
and also in Fort Collins Colorado. I'm hoping we really push for public
attention at the 2007 national in Fort Collins, and hope we get alot of people
that come out just to see our breed. Maybe we can get Animal Planet to put
something together to encourage the young people out there. We need to get the
Veterinarians, the PetCo and PetSmarts and all local training c
enters
on board to encourage the young people to give showing a try!
