Observations From The Other Side Of The Line
Time flies. I vividly recall my first AKC judging assignment 34 years ago. I awarded my first Best of Breed to the English Springer Spaniel, Ch.

And I can easily remember the first dogs I showed in the classes when I was eight: an orange roan English setter and a black-blanketed beagle. But when I tried to recall the last time I showed my own dog, I drew a blank. After a quick check through the file cabinet, I realized that, while a few handlers showed some of my dogs in the years between, it had been 21 years since it was just me, my dog, and a Resco.
