Question of the Week

What favorite good-luck charm, color or clothing do you wear when exhibiting?

 

Randy Garren

Apex, North Carolina

May I speak for Dennis?  His same pair of pink socks were worn every time he showed “Peter.” More than 100 BIS, including Westminster KC!

 

Mark Francis Jaeger 

Mason, Michigan

My good luck charm isn't visible: I tuck three Altoids under my upper lip and let them dissolve while we're in the ring. It calms me, and (if I remember correctly, according to George Alston), peppermint masks handler nerves from the sensitive noses of our partners.

 

Anne Coy

Oxford, Connecticut

I have a pair of socks with four leaf clovers on them that I wear to every show. I also wear a garnet ring and pendant that were my mom’s.

 

Susan Shephard

Deltona, Florida

I've been using the same rolled-leather slip leads for more than 30 years. The older they get, the better they are.
