Sheila, I so agree with you. In fact, I challenge everyone out there to go up
to at least 1 stranger at every show and say hi and be nice! I work for the
welfare office in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. I love people and love to talk!
People that come in here are so surprised how nice we are to them. I guess
not all government employees are nice! Come on people, I challenge you.

new equiptment, new
handlers, 30 years since my last show entered, I can say that getting the
cold shoulder
from people who obviously are at the umpteenth show, with who knows how
many years of
showing has a very chilling effect.

specialties
who talks to visitors. I have been told this over and over. I am naturally
friendly, I
can't help it, (I gotta be really angry or sick to be anit-social).

and double
handling that being civil takes a back seat.

people who are
most 'senior' at every show should be the first to be social. They know who
is whom and
they know which dogs are which and who has puppies for sale.

shows this
weekend.
