I feel it is an honor to earn the opportunity to compete in the group, so as 
much as I hate waiting I stay even when I doubt we'll do anything.  I'm not 
one to "special" a dog so it's only happened a couple of times when we took 
the breed from the classes.   Although I have a couple of youngsters now who 
are probably going to change our view on specialing in the future ; )
