What's Bitchen at Bitchen Bitches? 

What happens when three friends who share a passion for Gordon Setters start emailing or IM'ing at a time when we had nothing specific to talk about?  You'd think, since they collectively account for over a century involved in dogs - three-quarters of that in Gordon Setters - that their experience would lead them to the same conclusions and there'd be nothing else to discuss.  Not so.  At least not for  (Heidi Moon of Moonsetter Gordons, Dianna Ellis of Bluewin Gordons, and me, Bev Holoboff, SureShot Gordons ).  While we seem to share a similar 'eye' for what a good Gordon means to each of us, we can debate even things on which we are fundamentally in agreement.  What we've found is that these ongoing discussions have helped each of us learn and change (or even just reaffirmed our previous convictions).  That's what good discussion is about; not the "I'm right/you're wrong" positions but rather, "here's what I think and why but you could have a point".  Over the past while, each of us have had shifts in opinion as well as the rush of having someone else see something in a new way because of what we said.  We all benefit.  Our dogs benefit.  Our breeding programs benefit.
