The AKC trials used to be 150 to 200+ dogs and Region 12 ran every stake. The old format used to attract 5 or more pros and this year Region 12 had 1 pro. It us...

We feed Purina Pro Plan, good food and the GSP on the Performance bag is a show dog we bred, CH Crestone Armed And Dangerous. The real reason is the Pro we use feeds it and it is easy when dogs come home and go back. Purina also supports FTs and you can get money back for Vet visits.
