Thank You very much for the replies!!


I'm just getting ready for the first show. I believe we'll be going to the one in NJ (maybe)
If anybody knows of any closer to the Ohio area, please let me know.

Thanks again!!

There is one or two in PA and one in VA. Not sure where in OH you are or how far you are planning on traveling. The good thing is a lot of the shows are hosting 3 shows instead of just one. I believe the PA show is 2 shows on Sat. and none on Sun.

We'll be in NJ. I may have a female in your class. Should be fun and we'll see you there.

Thanks for the info!!

I'm in Columbus and willing to travel to surrounding states or anywhere no more than 6 hours away. NJ bearly made at 5.5 hours ...lol I will deff look up the PA and VA shows.
My female is currently 34-35lbs (chain weight) so conditioned she should be around 31-32lbs. What class would that be? Which one will yours be in?

I believe my one female will be in the 12 to 18 month or 18 to 24 month female class. I'll have a 5+ male and probably a 2 to 3 yr female. Not sure if I'm bringing any of the pups. I believe it is approx. 14 hours or so for us.

I'll try and get the dates for the other shows for you. I believe some are posted on the www.adba.cc (http://www.adba.cc) website. There is also a newer AADR Club in VA that is run by a really nice gentleman and with any luck we'll be attending that show as well. I'm not sure of the dates at this time.

You'll love the shows and we'll see you there!!!

[pitbulllvr25]

WOW!! 14 hours! :eek:
Thats a loooooooooooong drive! ...lol

I'm going to check out the AADR site and see when and where their shows are this year and maybe reg her with them too.....

[apbtluver]

They don't have the AADR website updated. There is going to be a show in NC in March. Not sure how far of a drive that will be for you but there will be three shows. Hopefully you'll be able to make it out to that one.

[FearlessKnight]

Yes that would ba fun one for ya! AADR shows are a little more laid back and the people aren't so uptight about everything (no offense to anyone) we attend the ADBA as well! :p They are both really great shows.

[pitbulllvr25]

Thats what i don't like most about UKC. Everybody is so uptight and snooty.... well the one i've been to anyway. You gotta dress up in skirts and dreese and be all perfect look'n ...lol That just ain't me, I'm a sweatpants, t-shirt and tenny shoe kinda girl :p

LOL...well ADBA is NOT that uptight....Thank you Jesus! Amen!

[pitbulllvr25]

.... LMAO!!

AADR shows are much more enjoyable in my opinion, and i have been to show form Georgia to New Jersey. ADBA clubs just aren't that friendly from my experiences and its a funny thing to me how the club memebers seem to win an awful lot. Plus AADR still allows dogs to act like dogs in the show ring - ADBA seems to to want statues in the ring instead of bulldogs.

[pitbulllvr25]

Sound like i'm gonna enjoy AADR more ...lol

Penut is a true clown and you can tell from a mile away :p

Please be sure to let us know about the March AADR show.
