Education is the number one priority and we need to keep that in mind for the kids coming up. When I read of a graduation, or an award in school for one of our kids, I feel that is so much more important than the last champion, or title. I have found myself with a Doctorate of Law, and do not regret a day of that schooling. After 19 years in classes I still spend an additional 30 hours a year to continue to qualify to practice law. Without an education life is so much more demanding, and it always opens doors that are closed to others. I commend Reggie on this choice, and there will be shows in the future for him to attend. Flower Boy knows more than anyone the direction so many youths head without that education. I have spoken in private to many of our juniors to give that message. My message remains steadfast, get as much education as you can, and it is second behind family, and far in front of dog shows.
