Maybe this is one reason there are less and less people in this "game".
We don't all have the money to pay the "freight". And we might
bemoan cost of gas. I for one, and I know others, who will save to
get the best dog possible and pay the "freight" whether we have it or
not. We won't go back on our word and we love the dogs and love to
show. And yes, we might bemoan the cost of gas but we would get the
handler and go anyway whether we could afford it or not. But you
wouldn't allow such a person to have one of your "best" dogs because
they might not have the money (in your opinion) to show the dog etc.
And the person might not already have a "handler/agent involved who may
have a relationship with the breeder/owner to refer someone known to
them who can "pay the freight" " Why in the world would anyone
want to get into this "game"? Maybe I'm taking this post wrong but
it sounds like total snobbery. Anne, TN
