Dog shows are competitive by nature, but the people who stay in this sport the longest usually discover something important: The ribbons fade. The friendships don’t.

We all have our favorites. Holidays, vacation sites, handbags, power tools, and dog breeds are just a few that come to mind. However, when asked, all of us have a number one food choice.

The most likely place we eat is in our homes; whether we prepare it, have it delivered, or go out to get it. If we consider all the small eateries, drive-up locations, diners, or five-star restaurants, the options are overwhelming. It sounds simple, but too often, it isn’t.

The backer who enables worthy dogs to be seen in the ring? The breeder of the most champions? The well-known owner-handler? The president of the parent club? Judges’ Education coordinator? Research guru? Rescue saint? Every one of these people can lay claim to being vitally important, and perhaps even the most important. But the truth is, you don’t have to be any of these people to have a profound influence on your breed. You just have to care.
