God bless the teachers who teach their students to compete :0) Most important thing in life, win gracefully and loose with dignity. Then get up and try again. A loss is just a point in time not a way of life.

Act as though you are suppose to be there...and no one will question that you are. Molly Thank you! I know my business, I never open my mouth unless I do, and I act accordingly. I am an accomplished adult in my own right, and I act accordingly. I'm new to showing but not new to the breed. I've researched, I've done, I haven't finished a champion but there are people who have been in the breed longer and haven't finished anything either. But both have points and titles and accomplishments without a big name handler, so my words show for something. I act with dignity, I behave cordially and responsibly, and the worst you can say is I have my own mind, though I do take advise (went warranted). I am not quick to take offense nor quick to give. And although it we may want people to be nicer in the breed and on the list, the whole world is full of nice people and jerks, so grow a thick skin applies to life in general (that's what I tell people when they say showing is political; isn't all of life?) As I tell my third graders, suck it up and deal!
