My, how things have changed in our world. Perhaps you have noticed this as well. Daily tasks which were easy to accomplish seem to have become more complicated than ever. Every promise that new and better ways to do simple tasks are helping us is far from the truth. Confronting larger issues creates even more difficulties. There does not seem to be a day that goes by without some issue–or more than one–which befuddles us. With the new tech developed and continuing to be created, the premise was it would make our lives easier, save time, and make us more productive. My question to you is does it?

Every generation in the dog fancy believes it is living in a pivotal moment. But some moments truly are different. Some moments ask more of us than nostalgia, tradition, or personal success. They ask us to look honestly at who is coming in, who is leaving, and what kind of future we are actively shaping.

When I look back at my early years showing dogs, there is an air of fascination and wonder for the sport that permeates every memory. I vividly recall watching expert handlers as they handled dogs with such skill and precision, but also the dedicated assistants who perched ringside, ran back and forth between rings, and diligently cared for dogs. At that time, ringsides were full of assistants carrying bags, fans, and coolers, or bringing up dogs for the next group. More recently, I flew home to Florida to work a show and looked around…Where did they all go? This experience, coupled with recent discourse, has left me considering the role of assistants and their future in our sport.
