Glenn. Get a grip here. Barb made it perfectly clear that you can still have fun showing a dog who "has some really nice traits". You are beginning to give the impression of someone who expects to buy a Westminster winner first time out of the shoot, buy the dog inexpensively and outright to boot, and then go crying back to the breeder everytime the dog doesn't win it's class or the points. Most of us started out with dogs who "had nice traits" but weren't Best of Breed winners. None of us were harmed by the experience. In fact, it helped us to develop our eye for the dogs. We all survived to tell the tale. Maybe showing cavaliers just isn't your cup of tea. Myra
