Yep I was not sure where to put it either !! considering it is about dogs, all breeds, about buying them, about research, about the goofy stuff that we often hear, about out right lies like the breeder who assures the buyer of a ridgeless "don't worry the ridge will come in later " , it is about dog websites, about what each of us foudn when looking into the breed of choice ....
I think the idea of having an events calendar is a great one! and I like the idea of having a page not simply about showing but encouraging folks to go to shows. They are so much more than just competitions. Maybe pointing out the vendors, sports, activities or talking about the giant shows like Houston where it is an entirely different world ?? Maybe I could put my list of both dog show supers in it along with a list of the different catalogs I am addicted to??
The concept of needing to see a dog move is so simple it is truly brilliant, THAT is the type of thing that when you have been in a breed a long time you just "do", and since this is about helping new comers That is the type of thing I need pointed out.
This is a monster site but hey why do it half way?? By breaking things down they do not have to linger on any given page. They can browse to their heart's content. And due to the generosity of the RR comunity world wide I have some amazing photos and a ton for future pages, medical issues etc oooh ooh I need a page about the at home medical kit we all should have !! And you should see some of the photos I have been sent, just got some non RR ones because the sender and I began chatting she bred some awesome Chinese Crested and when lending a bitch to another breeder as a wet nurse got her back bred to a champion pug ! the pups are tooo darn cute, I know OT but stilll you have to see this baby for real!
come on guys what did you learn after you got the dog?? Anything about color, build, needs etc that the "Breeder" should have told you up front?
hee hee this is like crack I am addicted and can't stop myself!!
