Show Dedication is....

Anonymous, submitted by Wayne Lewis, Australia

Being able to unclench your teeth when you are fifth in a class of five.
Rushing into the ladies room five minutes before ring time to exchange your crummy slacks for your dashing new outfit, only to find no doors and a half grown boy waiting for his mommy. How come daddies never take daughters into the men's room?
Meeting friends in a parking lot at 5:00 am to exchange dogs wearing a dirty raincoat over your nightie.
Buying a $35 picture where you look like something left over from Halloween, but the dog looks great.
Getting down on your knees one more time while feeling your last pair of pantyhose shredding.
Crawling into the van and cleaning up the results of nervous diarrhea in the middle of summer.
Resisting the impulse to abandon on the expressway the idiot who upchucks in his crate after you spent half the night grooming the creature.
Crying your head off after selling a puppy, and two weeks later the ungrateful wretch doesn't even remember you.
Spending three weeks preparing a super whelping box, then watching her whelp behind the couch.
Packing three suitcases for Kerry, and a shoe box for yourself.
Not taking the deep six when number two bitch comes in season two days before number one bitch goes out.
Not screaming when the P.A. system goes berserk and you wind up scraping your dog off the ceiling.
Not strangling the clod behind you who steps on your heels and suddenly you are wearing only one shoe while running around the ring.
Riding 300 miles home after losing a major to a friend and still being friends.
Sleeping scrunched into a 2 x 2 foot ball, while tomorrow's star sprawls in total comfort in your bed.
Rolling out of a warm bed and crawling into a cold van on Sunday morning.
