Sandy - without knowing all the facts and assuming there is more to the 
story.... but just addressing what you stated in your email.....exhibitors 
enter their dogs with the hope that it is a major, but if the show doesn't make 
a major, why would you travel to it and pay a handler fee when you don't need 
single points?  
   
  You will also have breeders that enter their dogs in multiple shows on the 
same weekend and go where the numbers are the best for them inadvertantly 
breaking majors or eliminating the points on a small entry. 
   
  Now what I do hate is when people show up, size up the competition, decide 
their dog can't win, and pull it, breaking the major.   This happens all the 
time.   If you ask the owner, the dog is usually sick, has pano, or some other 
"ailment" that keeps it from being shown.
