"In the searching exercises, self-confidence and nerve-steadiness, directability and controllability are of great significance."
"The dog should be intense, goal oriented and purposeful."

Photographers: Hali Camper, Anne Camper, Sammie Jones and others? THANKS!!!! to Anne for letting us use her spiffy new digital camera -- it sure made managing and uploading the pictures easier.
Sincere apologies to those who didn't get any pictures of themselves or their dog... it all depended on who picked up the camera and when. If any of the other photographers present during the weekend got pictures they'd like to send, that would be wonderful!
