Could we move the entry closing date back say to some time in March?  It won't 
make a great big difference, but could help.  Since most everything is 
computerized now, it shouldn't be difficult for Rau to get the entries out in a 
shorter notice. 
 
I, though, do not feel the entry dates or the judges have much to do with the 
lower number of entries.  Economics, handlers, lowered numbers of people 
joining, lack of education to the public (i.e.. why to buy a purebred and why 
to show it).  Entries are down for Futurities and for shows.  We need to fix 
that problem before we try to fix other problems.  The costs of entries is 
getting Ridiculous.  Clubs....Lower your costs for Puppies, for Pete's sake!!  
Puppies will help entries more than anything.  Handlers are even charging way 
less for puppies, but clubs raised their prices, now that makes sense!!!!

  I am sure if everyone put their thinking caps on a reasonable solution could 
be found.  Since the futurities seem to be the most important shows in 
shepherds and a dog only gets to do it 2 times in their life some type of 
adjustment needs to be made. It is not like there is always the next show.  I 
saw a lot of gorgeous animals that were stuck under the wrong judge and the 
owners could do nothing about it.

    Ok there are two sides to this and yes I wholeheartedly agree with Sally 
that an exhibitor should be able to change regions. 
    Since futurity entries close in March with the first show being in April 
how would that work? As it  was there was less than 4 weeks to do the catalog 
for the first Region. The only judge that inconvenienced anyone was Darol 
White's passing. I think most of the fancy knew well enough in advance of entry 
closing that Joan Ford wasn't going to be able to judge.
