    My Sheltie Club's specialty is this weekend. I'm hosting one of the judges -- a wonderful person. Last night, we talked for hours! She went over all of our Shelties, teaching me how to feel for bone structure, check musculature, examine coat, view gait. I heard history, stories of many breed lines -- it was incredible! I couldn't have paid for a better tutorial -- and today I get to watch her judge all day, then learn why she chose who she chose! Lalalalalalalalalalla!! :biggrin2:
