I am not sure where you live Pam, but most clubs that I know do not have the "manpower", to hold a TT test on the same day with their shows. It takes bodies to do the work and also time. With many clubs now going to 2 shows in one day. I don't see how that would be possible. Aside from that you would need a location with enough space that the TT test wouldn't interfere with the breed and obedience rings. The GSDCA national holds their TT away from the other activities. I would think that in most cases, a TT needs to be held separately from a specialty show. Perhaps if you held it the Friday before the two show weekend, or the Monday following it might work.

Just wondering, I would love to have my dogs certified with this title but am having a hard time finding a tester close by. I do know there will be one at the Nationals, but that is only 800 miles for me<VBG> > > Health and Happiness > Pam and her pack ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2006.
