Well, that goes to show you how little I know about showing. I thought,
in order to show, you had to be a member of the club, not vice versa. We
got our Pyr to guard our family farm. 

I was interested that you had Pyrs and Shelties. I became interested in
Pyrs after months of research. I have always loved Shelties, though, and
had them when I was growing up. Eventually, I would like to get another
sheltie to herd our sheep. It should be fun.
