I to have battled with asthma my whole life. The doctor has me on Advair, Singulair, and the Albuterol inhaler which all help. I still have to take precautions against triggering the responses in...

I'm sorry you can't handle prosperity of a breed that is not your favorite. I never even made the original post on here about that. I responded with what was taken, band numbers, the the only...

For our club show I've tried many things to help out. I've created a website for the club on Yola.com. Its nothing super fancy but it works. It cost less than $25 to register the domain name. ...

Evy made some really good points. I know most of us just don't think that stuff like this could ever happen. Even when all precautions are made, if someone really wants to get at you they will find...

Thank you Jen!!! I have been so busy filing reports with the sheriff and off at work that no time to get on here. I got hit hard this last week. I am the MN State Rep for the ASBC and the NSBA. ...

Any results up for this show yet? I wasn't able to make it this year due to work. Curious as to overall numbers and class champions.
