We have a strong commitment to the Jr Showmanship Program in AKC and ASCA.  Our son Bryson started with “Monte” at the age of 7!   Sitting ringside is nerve racking as a parent, but watching the confidence, poise, and success kids gain from showmanship and performance event competition is not only extremely rewarding for the kids, but as a parent creates those moments of pride that are priceless!  I am in awe and almost always in tears watching these kids succeed.  From scholarship opportunities to the bond these kids create with their dogs, showcasing that love in the ring fosters such grateful memories.
