Yes, you can go to the seminars and the auction even if you don't have any dogs entered. You have to pay to go to the auction dinner, but I think there's a "bidder only" option as well.

Agility is both Monday and Tuesday (Monday is boxers only and Tuesday is all breed but boxers get preference), and it is about a 30 minute drive away. If you wanted to go, and were prepared to stay the whole day, I could always give you a lift.
However - don't forget about rally and obedience on the Saturday and Sunday! That is at the hotel and will also be fun to watch.

That would be great. Thanks Kerry.

I hope to drive down on Sunday and leave Tuesday or Wednesday.

Oh I am so jealous.... I want to go so so bad.. My handler only has one boxer special and as of right now is not going I am too scared to show her myself at that large of a show. I want to go to watch but that is pricey. I wish it was closer too. All of Cami's littermates will be there but her they are all on the east coast. Maybe next year.... I keep reading all the premium lists and wishing.

We will be there! My Amaya is doing agility and hopefully Ninya will do futurity a and breed.

I went. My Mamie didn't do anything this year (last year she got a Futurity placement), but her brother took third in his Am Bred brindle class.

Friends did very well -- one got Best Jr. Puppy in Futurity and some other nice placements.

I was unable to make it. My mom was in the hospital. She is home and doing fine now.

I was going to observe.

We went and had a lot of fun but I came home feeling that I didn't spend enough time watching dogs, and that it was all very rushed.
My good news was that Star got her Novice Agility title at the Tuesday agility trial. Her breeder showed her in BOB but nothing to report there.

Star's dad got a 4th place in the stud dog class which was very exciting, and a brother of her's (from a later breeding) got a placement in the fawn 12 to 18 months class.
