All The MidWest Fut/Mat was held at Purina Farms. The outdoor ring was used and it was beautiful show site. Grass everywhere. RV friendly. Plenty of paces to take your dogs for a nice long walk. I did go into the arena. It is spotless clean. The footing is thick rubber; probably not the best for dogs who are weak in the pasterns. The seating will be down one side. Our entries have diminished over the years. We no longer need huge convention centers. I have attached the video. If nothing else; fun people watching. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kFv49BC8qOI ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2014.
