Wasn't there a survey about this on Info Dog several months ago? They asked for an email address so the results could be emailed to the participants, but I never heard anything. Did anyone else get an email back? Janice In a message dated 8/24/2006 4:38:09 P.M.

If it were up to you - what would you suggest to make it more fun, even the playing field and get more participation? This may give some clubs some ideas. Our club, the GSDC of Beaumont, is having both a breed seminar and a junior handling seminar next year. We hope they are both something everyone will have an interest in and will partake. So, what do you all suggest? Molly Trillia German Shepherds ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2006.
