I'm kinda flyign by the seat of my pants, learning what I can...but its a much slower way then having somebody who has been in the breed for years do summat with you. - Jackie Jackie, Please give me the name of your home town and I will try to put you in contact with a nearby regional club or someone in your area that can be a mentor to you. I believe the Regional Clubs Committee (Lew Bunch) has initiated a Mentor Program and that Nancy Harper is very involved with this - I hope I have my facts right because I can't remember the exact details. You can contact Lew Bunch (_Lewieb@xxxxxxxx (mailto:Lewieb@xxxxxxx) ) or Nancy at _Nancy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (mailto:Nancy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx) or, as I suggested earlier, please tell me where you live and I can find someone near you that can give you some guidance and advise. Good luck with your puppy and please know that there are many people willing to help you. Best to you.
