I am surprised at the comments on prices charged..guess I am way behind times and have been kind to my clients. Handlers are professionals hired to do what others cannot. If I could fix my maxivan I would and save money. I know to keep the oil changed and tires in good condition but otherwise I have a great mechanic. He grins when I call him and I know the bill will be significant. I don't fault him cause he keeps that van running great for the shows. Its the same story - you get what you pay for. Support JR's - u bet that's where the future is. Bashing handlers- a NOT. We put in many more unseen hours into our dogs that the few minutes you see in the ring.JMO...debi james ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2006.
