Be prepared and only breed the best, our breed deserves no less.You might want to cultivate a special relationship with your vet as well, people person or not. |
Here's the link to Infodog which has all the listings for shows by state:

Hopefully you can find someone to mentor you and help you become a responsible breeder.
