ONCE again.........with the Futurity Finals being done on Tuesday night it forces many conformation people to come in on Monday. The Conformation dogs are sitting there from Monday through the following Sunday.......... LITERALLY.........this is the SINGLE EASIEST PROBLEM to solve with the National!! Go BACK to Wednesday for the beginning of Conformation. Not to mention the LESS EXPENSE of the extra day of renting the facilities, life of the sod, Committee workers, booth rental and set up, etc.........it's just TOO easy to solve!!!!
