Anyone who trains much around me will tell you that I am definatly not a confirmation person. Not that it does not have a place, and if it's what you like then go for it..but for me it rates right under tracking.

But as suprised as I am at myself, I will be entering one dog in the working class at the 2012 Seiger Show in Indianapolis

. Turns out I have a great mentor to help coach us to get ready for it too. It's going to be lots of conditioning I supppose, but based on his show record (we are first in 3 of 3) I would expect him to do really well. I'm open to any experienced input as well, tips and what not! And btw it is a working line dog

Matt, you have done Larry and I proud. Good luck with Bravo. it doesn't matter what the judges say you have a superlative German Shepherd.

One in the same. Where were you looking at him at? Going to have a club trial/show in April. It will be good practice!

Well I know he's going to be up against some tough dogs, and I'll shoot for sieger (which I don't really expect to get

), but I know he will do very well.
