And if things don't pick up around here, look for me at the front gate collecting spare change for the price of admission.
Randy
Oh, I didn't know we could do that! Then I might be there too, depending on how the spare-change-for-airfare thing goes at this end.

Since I've decided that I am definitely going to Michael Ellis' seminar as a spectator, what do you guys think of me bringing along a 12 week old American Bulldog? I've been in touch with Scott (the guy organizing the show), and he said to feel free to bring him along.
Since I've never been to one of these things, I was wondering about others thoughts on this being a good opportunity to do some socializing without overwhelming the pup. Would this be appropriate, or do you think the pup will be to young?
Thanks,
Tracy

Tracy,
You can hang with me if you have too
This is fairly new to me too so I also am going as a spectator minus my dog.....I'm too easily distracted.
Randy,
You have as much in common with a shrinking violet as does a bull in a China shop (no offense)
I agree it would be a sin NOT to go. I should pick up dog training again FOR Lent, I've been such a slacker, I'm lucky my boy is still housebroken.

It would be a sin for me not to go; I live in the next town to Holbrook
Is that down near Braintree and Quincy?

I don't know Sheila, this bull is pretty careful around china shops, pottery barns and such. I figure if I break it I buy it.
Gee I hope no one asks me any locations. I found it by accident last time!
And found my way home via central New Hampshire!

If I moved to New York already, I would have attended that seminar. Maybe next year, if there is another ellis seminar, I can attend there and meet some of you guys.

Lindsay,
I think this might be the last call tour for Michael.
I vaguely remember reading a piece from Ed about Michael starting a school in Southern Cal this coming spring/early summer.
Good news for people in your quadrant of the states, bad news for the rest of us.

I believe it's actually closer to me.
I believe it's nearer to San Francisco.
But maybe I just imagined that.

Any thoughts on be bringing a 12 week old pup along to observe? Good opportunity to socialize, or too much for a baby pup?
