For those of you involved in any of the performance competitions, I’d love to talk with you about how Toy dogs can and do compete. Would you con- sider writing an article tomake it even more important and include ideas on getting started? It is another world out there for many of us and TNT would like to include you! The Owner-Handlers are more im- portant, more successful, and much more able to compete, with many looking just like the professionals. Statistics prove that Owner-Han- dlers are becoming a force in the Toy ring, and the OH experience has en- abled them to move right up in the statistics. This is another area that I’d like to request articles and suggestions for Top Notch
T he Orlando shows are wonderful, exciting, fun-filled, and a shopping extravaganza. (Plus, there are sur- prises inside and outside the ring.) There is no other way to describe the AKC Show sponsored by Royal Canin except to way, WOW! With a huge en- try of over 4,000 fabulous dogs, it is the perfect place to see top-winning Toy Specials from within and outside the country, as well as up-and-coming class dogs. Many of these class dogs are produced by parents currently in the Specials ring, which proves that a pedigree of quality comes shining through—generation after generation. Many of the specials and newcomers have been highlighted in TNT , where all the finest Toys are found. It’s a great place to see the dogs you have only seen in pedigrees. It’s exciting (and one of the best parts) for me to know that I will have an op- portunity tomeetmany of youwhomI only talk with on the phone. For those of you who have missed the last year in Orlando—or even Westminster— be sure that you stop at our booth and say hello. A smiling face with a name makes TNT lots more personal, fun for me, and better for advertisers who call or email.
