One of the most enjoyable times is sitting at ringside among breeders and handlers. You couldn't get a better education in dogs. Often times the smaller shows gives the prospective dog owner an advantage of meeting and talking with breeders. Just as enjoyable is planning shows, matches, and other events. The Excitement builds within you for event day. I still got it! Do You?😆 John Lacher Oroville, CA GSDCA / GSDC Sacramento Valley
