Hope to see you there

My girls went last year and had a great time! Looking forward to coming back again this year!

Re: LRC Piedmont Specialty Looking for Jr. Handlers

Please encourage any young people out there to please enter in juniors at these specialties. Most of the time specialties do not even include juniors because of the expense, and the low numbers do not justify having it. Its hard enough for juniors at the all breed shows to get their wins using a labrador. At least at specialties the playing field starts at even. This will give them a chance to try and earn wins to go to Westminster.

There are only three juniors competing this year at the garden with labradors. We are the number one breed in the country and we have the least amount of juniors representing us.

Please encourage our young handlers and give them the support they so desperately need to keep showing labradors instead of switching to flashier dogs to win.

Worried for the future of our Labradors!
