Very well said. There really are a whole more important things than a Futurity to worry about. If that was the only worry that I had life would be easy.

Folks, I hate to say this, put with the state of things right now, do you not all thing that there are more important things to bricker about than a $20.00 entry fee? Be thankful that you are able to even pay the entry fees and still have your home, your dogs your family and your healthy, think of those right now who are less fortunate. Also, being the one in my AB Club who plans the show and has all the headaches, be extremely thankful for those in the Club who give of their time so that we all can enjoy Futurities and Point Shows. This is done out of dedication to the breed and the sport and nothing else. Sorry, folks but I just think we should be more concerned with other things right now.
