organization for your pedirgee book





I thought I would share with you a little tip for your pedigree book. Sometimes they become jumbled and cumbersome. I use page tabs (readily available at Wal Mart and other retailers). They come in colors (I use these) and clear. I stager the tabs for easy viewing. The tabs are adjustable and can be moved if you need to move them. The Does are in the front and all the Bucks (I only have 4 herd sires) are in the back. Mostly they are in the book with the oldest animals first and so on down the line. I use a Binder with 3 inch rings and a carry bag to put everything in. The binder also has pockets and other openings for misc. show reports and pedigrees for sale animals.

2008-2009 show season

The show season is over and considering I did not show any of the fall shows (to prepare for Convention 08) the year was fantastic! In the east there are only about 14 to 16 shows I can go to. Unfortunately there is NO way that anyone except people on the west coast can ever win the NARBC sweepstakes. I feel that a new way of compiling points should be considered. Personally I feel that exhibitors should be allowed to submit only points from 25 shows (the same number for everybody no matter where you live) this would level the playing field. Short of moving to California no one else has a chance to go to enough shows to be competitive in sweeps. I have never shown for sweeps points, because its an exercise in futility..
The spring season was enormously successful 8 BEST IN SHOWS and several Best Res. in shows with 3 different does from 3 different litters. Thank you GC SILVERTONE GLAMOUR GAL...GC SILVERTONE GRAND DIVA and the baby SILVERTONE ISABELLA.
Grand Divas little sisters are developing nicely Silvertone California Dreaming and S. Hello Hollywood.....along with Isabella...Marcella...and Sierra...oh yes and the little black guy Tyson B. ......we anxiously await the fall season.
