The Sport of Dogs

I was thinking this weekend...at the dog show.... that this is a sport that all of us who show, in whatever venue, have a role in....and it occurred to me that we can make a CHOICE about that role:  there are leaders (those who have a generous awareness and by example demonstrate good sportsmanship to everyone; managers (those who feel the need to talk about what others are doing wrong.); the workers who work their hearts out to make the events happen; and the solitary players.  All of us have probably been in each of those roles at one point.... and all of us have the power to pick the roles we want to play.
