There apparently were a number of problems having all the entries go to one
person this year. I think we need to go back to having each regional secretary
accepting the entries for their region. I understand this was changed based on
some handlers needing to switch animals between regions at the last minute or
people wanting to only send all their entries to one place like the old days
with Rau. It was supposed to be simpler, but I think it created more problems
than it solved.

I don't think this was an isolated case, I know of at least 1 dog/owner that
this happened to at the Midwest Futurity/Maturity also. They were also able to
verify the entry had been done properly submitted but the paperwork had not
gotten to the show secretary, so the dog was able to be shown.
This does bring up an interesting point, is this new system worth keeping and
how can it be made easier and more correct to prevent frustration such as
voiced
in this post.
At first I thought it was cool to be able to enter 2 Futurity/Maturity's, now,
after seeing how it actually worked, I'm not entirely sold on it.
For one, it really scues the #'s, that is of course a small issue. The bigger
issue is the procedure for the paperwork.
The paperwork has to be astronomical, having been a show secretary for our
local
club and the entry #'s a futurity brings with it, I can not imagine the job of
the superintendent having to disburse this to multiple show secretaries.
Obviously, this did not go smoothly, and I'm sure better dual control will be
implemented if this system stays in place.
Now I am NOT saying this is bad and we should discontinue entry in 2 seperate
regions, I'm just throwing out some issues that arose and as in all new
programs, it takes time to implement new procedures.
Just putting it out there.
