For me that is every show. I have a running argument with Twyla and Tedi. I have said I would rather go in the ring and lose than have a handler take my dog in the ring and win. They say I am crazy, (maybe they are right but that has nothing to do with handling). I have fun all the time, and win or lose, I love dog shows. I just won a Medical Malpractice trial, and winning in court for a client is much better than losing. Not that there is anything wrong with that.
