Re: How to handle all breed shows

We got very tired of this sort of thing, so one time, we were standing around and a couple of cocker spaniels came by and we yelled, quick grab your Rotts there's a cocker spaniel The people actually laughed and then it brought a discussion of how it feels to be biased against and so on. Over the years, you will meet idiots like the Greyhound person, I then once had my sweet Rottie walking along and a Saluki came at her while her owner was not even paying attention, I had "Exe's" back pack on, (she was carrying our dog stuff to the ring) and this dog grabbed her back pack and was very aggressive. the woman didn't even say, "I'm sorry" I stopped her and spoke to her and all around how if that would have been my dog, there would have been a bench hearing, etc. So, try and not let that bother you, look for nice people at the shows, because the dog show world has many levels of people...
