Yes I will have one dog there.
Wow another hundred. That must be more updated then on the Master National website. With the northeast and upper mid-west getting started I think we will likely go over 1300. Maybe over 1000 at the event.
Thanks I as curies about it
I think it's getting out of control !!!! and has out smarted itself. I know I will get a lot of grief with this but here's my take. Average MH is 5-6 YO, take 4 years to get 3 MN passes to get MNH title, now 9-10 YO, too old to breed or collect. DUH
I sure like the look in your post picture's dog's eyes, now that's a DOG !!!!

Where does this list come from? I have found three dogs on the list that have NOT "officially" qualified.
What you mean is the wealthy/self employed or retired amateur right? I am 40, 2 small kids and work full time with 3 weeks vacation. Pretty standard. I did the basics and the vast majority of the training with my dog and have handled him in 90% of the events he has attended. He has a HRCH, MH, MNH, QA2 and has some Amateur Jams. he is 100% owned by me. I skipped last year but the year before he went to the Kansas MN with a great pro. cost me around 1000.00. With the 2 days travel back and forth i would have to take 2 weeks off at least and would have cost me 2500.00 at least. Explain to me how I would be able to do that?
well my dog is amatuer trained and qualified for national by amateur but there is no way i can take 10 + days vacation.
My MNH is QA2 and I have run several Amateurs and finished a few. The issue is that with the grounds I have and $ I cannot compete. I also work full time and have 2 kids so I can only train a few times a week and cannot travel like I would need to to train. I pull up with my one dog beside 15 or so chasse mounts with 3-4 dogs each that spend large amounts of time with the top FT pros. Ever so often a great dog will come along that can compete but for the most part guys like me are just cannon fodder. I enjoy it a few times a year going and taking my shot but why would you suggest that that should be the only avenue I should have. MN provides a great middle ground for people like me which by the way is the majority of the dog handlers out there and are the future of the sport.
