I have taken out 1 full page ad and a Christmas greeting, all for my first show dog and first Champion Mister T out of my first litter. ;-) I like the color ads better myself, but I can't afford them- maybe if I didn't show my dogs I could afford the 400 some-odd dollar ads.-- it all boils down to that. I was very disappointed in how few people took out a holiday ad, but surely they had their reasons- super cheap relatively speaking, very well done-- if only I could keep the damn Santa hat on him LOL Catherine Morton Mana Shepherds Sent from my BlackBerry Smartphone provided by Alltel ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2010.
