Arghhhh. Just a little rant.
As if it's not hard enough to get a major on a GSD in Oklahoma,
the new point schedule just made it harder.
Last year it took 11 dogs and 14 bitches to make a 3 point major in our division (Oklahoma, Texas and Colorado). NOW, after May 15th, it will take 13 dogs and 16 bitches for that same major. We have the highest number in the country needed to make a major.
Sage needs both her majors (hence the rant, lol). It's so darn expensive to show a dog, that you practically have to beg everyone you know to enter their dogs. I have Sage entered in Ft Worth in less than 2 weeks, with a GSD specialty the day before. The breed count came out for the show, and no majors, even with the specialty.
Not that anyone here cares about this, but I just wanted to have a little temper tantrum about it.
