 Showing dog
My kids are my pets first and showing or breeding stock second. Buster will look oh so pretty when groomed and ready the day of the show. Check him out at home- he is in the back yard chasing the birds- leaves in his hair and his topnot in his face.
I have tried a new groming method- I am not wrapping or oiling the coat. His coat is down all the time- it is still growing and we are winning in the ring. It makes for a happy dog.
I think the pet/show dog has a happier attititude then a straight show dog. I want my dogs to want to show-if they don't then- we stop. It is like being a parent and trying to force a child in to sports for your own gratification. |
