These are all good reasons for considering entering multiple Futurities.?? My 
fear is that this new change will allow only the top tier or wealthy to enter 
their dogs all over the country, show up at Futurity # 1, see who their 
competition is, then go on to a different Futurity because they can.? Many 
exhibitors cannot afford this.? So, this could turn into a game that allows 
only those who can afford it, the luxury of 2nd or 3rd chances at winning 
Futurities, while those who cannot "keep up with the Jones's" will fade away 
because there is now another tool in place for them not to be able to keep up.? 
I am not saying I am totally against this idea.? If it increases entries and 
enthusiasm about Futurities then give it a try.? But if what I say above comes 
true, that is NOT in the spirit of Futurities or for attracting new people.?

Cyndi, 
Here are a few of reasons behind the idea. 
1) Change of Judge - it has happened including this year 
    Could be you would not show under the alternate Judge is not right for your 
dog/bitch 
    Your handler might not be able to show under alternate judge. 
2) Your Junior Puppy comes up with Pano a few weeks/days before the Futurity 
    You can wait and go to the later one
3) Your bitch comes in Seaon, has blown coat, looks badly. 
    You can go to your second choice Futurity when she looks her best. 
4) Provides income for Regional Club 
5) One does not HAVE TO double enter but can if they so choose.

  What is the purpose of being able to enter more than one Futurity?
