Performance starts the weekend before BOB with tracking, herding and agility
Some of the obedience/rally people come over to watch on Saturday, but many go
home as it has
already been an expensive long week
We have many champions of record working
Dual titles are on the increase

They come, show the hard work they have done to train their dogs, and go home.
It is from the conformation breeders where many of those obedience dogs
come from. It would be great if they showed an interest in conformation.
And, yet, we keep getting told we have to take more interest in performance.
It should not be a one way street.

I have for years wondered why they bring the top winning performance
animal to be recognized in the conformation ring, but never ask the Best of
Breed winner to be brought over to be shown in the obedience ring.
Well let's start with the fact that obedience is long finished by the time
the Best of Breed winner is announced. Heck obedience is finished before
judging of specials is even started!
