Has anyone noticed how many women handlers we have now,even in the Jrs .?? Back when I was handling in the 50s.60s,70s. We only had me,Ginny Collins, Denny Kodner,Helen Polinitza,and Gin McCoy, And of course Ann Mesdag handled her own dogs most of the time But particularly at the National--mostly men handlers , I think it's great.
