Very well said.........some things we do can be very addicting....whether it be 
showing dogs, playing golf, watching sports,playing video games or what 
ever....the time to stop is when it's no longer fun, or you can't afford to 
keep playing......the year is only 17 days old ( Happy BD Muhammad Ali and Joe 
Frazier)...but the best day so far was Sat. at the dog show......wish I could 
have talked to more folks...including the man that named me Sue...eh, I mean 
Flower Boy, but I did get a chance to hug is wife...lol....FB

Yes, it  is certainly easy to get a title, but just what does that title 
mean ? 
  
Let's try to be honest.  What does any dog title mean? 
  
It only means that you have selected a venue or contest, and won.  It   
doesn't say much about you as a person, (other than knowing where to enter), 
and 
 it sure doesn't help mankind, cure cancer or eliminate fetal death   
syndrom.  It doesn't make your dog any better, or worse, depending on if  you 
win 
or lose. 
  
We all pick the venue in which we feel we can excell, and then go for it.   
If you do something for years and never win, you probably should find 
something  else to do with your time.  If you never bowl a strike, bid a 
grand 
slam,  or finish a dog, you might want to look at another hobby.  But, it 
doesn't  mean much, just your choice of activities. 
  
Dog shows are for fun.  They have no particular meaning, and if you  enjoy 
showing in AKC, ARBA, IFFA, WDA, or some other letters, then go for  it.   
And, remember, the titles are how we keep score, they don't mean  much. 
  
It is how you live your life, your friends and family, and the memories you 
 build that matter.
