ANNOUNCEMENT...
With my recent life changing health problems.
I will be unable to handle dogs in the future.
I have been diagnosed with cerebellar ataxia and have balance and mobility issues. Which will make it extremely hard to handle dogs.
If in the future I can show without a walker and have a power scooter to do so. Ill be just spectating from ring side and supporting my daughter in the junior handler rings.

After I get into the doctor to have xrays and know results.

I'm letting everyone know ahead of time. That I may not be able to show any longer.
We will see what I find out first.
If I cannot show anymore. My daughter will be taking my place and handling after her last year as a junior next year.

I will be available to handle at limited shows in 2026.
I will be choosing shows more local (Michigan, Indiana, Ohio, and possibly Illinois).
Though I love to travel I am choosing to stay closer to home.
Why limited shows you ask. Well I also plan to show other animals as well that I have worked on to do so.
I will post shows I plan to attend and will attend if I have clients booked.

In order for a dog to be shown. The dog must be registered with the registry in order to be shown under that registry.
If the dog is to be shown in ABKC it has to be ABKC registered. If the dog is to be shown in BRCG it has to be BRCG registered.
Just as if I want to show my own dogs in UKC they would have to be UKC registered in order to do so.

So if the dog is ABKC registered but is to be shown in BRCG it has to be BRCG registered 1st.
