This rule is ridiculous; we live in the USA, not the USSR. To require exhibitors to submit a detailed itenerary will seriously inhibit their ability to do business as many have no idea where they will be at a given time. When I travel, I stop when I get tired, and find a place to house my animals at the time. the vagaries of weather, mechanical breakdowns, unanticapated problems with un cooperative animals, road conditions, and an infinite number of other uncertainties make it impossible for most exhibitors to know exactly where they will be at a certain time. Most exhibitors do not have a team of itenerary planners, the rate of non compliance will be so great as to make the rule unenforceable without shutting down animal commerce entirely. Please re consider, this appears to be a rule dreamed up by beurocrats sitting in a plush office who have no idea what goes on in the real world
