Theres a reason not to go. BC's They are taking over all the events. I think they need to make a seperate class for BC's and their owners lol

J/K Maybe once they take a pointing dog title I might feel that way lol.


You didnt see my last attempt Kel.......We even got a trophy for it lol

Hey now... GSDs are good at most everything, too. Snickering Hehe.

Thom, I did see partial video footage of your first disc trial! And I heard about the "crowd pleaser" award. Lol.
