Showing is deffinately partially for bragging rights too! I mean honestly, lets say you had a Am. Can. CH ***** who produced 3 Am. CH, 2 Can. CH and 6 Am. Can. CH and a Am. Can. CH Dog with a CDX and TD who sired 8 Am. Can. CH and 3 Can. CH and 5 Am, CH wouldn't you want to tell the world about what your kennel has produced? (sorry to anyone who doesn't understand what I wrote...Am.= American, Can. = Canadian, CH = Champion (have recieve ?8? points in the conformation ring), CDX = Citizen Dog Excellent, TD = Therapy Dog)
