Most of you have benefit of a larger, more active local club, I think, that may make the club more interesting. I belong to a nice little local toy breed club where everyone treats me nice. The president of that club, by the way, is daughter of a long ago president of YTCA, Betty Dullinger.
Most of us belong to Regional Breed Clubs as well as All Breed Clubs.
YTCA is not just about showing, it's not a great big social club. They are actively involved with research on diseases plaguing our breed. Although, we do have 2 big social events a year (The National & The Roving) where people come from all over the world, not only to show their dogs, but to meet up with old friends that have a common interest.
