Good morning, everyone! I apologize for the delay in responding to messages but my son had a Cub Scout Pack meeting and I am Den Mother so I am just getting to the computer now..... Thank you for the messages, both public and private, regarding the Red Book. My question is: is this Book cumulative or must one buy one every year? I mean is all the information from previous years in each book with the addition of the new year or just one year at a time? Also, the DVD's Jack mentioned seem very educational. So, do judges give critiques and talk on these DVD's about what they are seeing? Lastly, thanks for all the messages regarding using frozen semen on a maiden bitch! I looked into AI (fresh chilled) for a stud and that was expensive. Thus, I am saving my money already. I don't want to limit myself to breed to a local stud so I would rather miss a breeding season and save up for a stud I really love.
