I have yet to show but have been encouraged to show "Mercedes" she is 7 months. As I have said here before I dont know if I 'm cut out for the ring, the politics or the idea of enhancing the dog to win, it just doesnt make my toes tingle with excitement!  ! |
Hi, again:
There's nothing more fun than showing a puppy. I would highly encourage you to get your feet wet and take Mercedes in the ring.
Years ago we showed Dobermans and then Rotts. We competed in the obedience ring as well as the conformation ring. I was waiting my turn to go into the obedience ring when I fell in love with the little Yorkie working his heart out in the ring. He was SO cute and when they were done, his handler picked him up outside of the ring and off they went. That's when the seed was planted. My first Yorkie I bought strictly as a pet and for obedience work. She's now 15.
