.Ok I have a question for you show ladies

I am in the process of training my girl Whisper. I plan on showing her later this year but she hates the lead. How on earth do you get a dog to like the lead lol. Also she walks with her tail up really nicely off the lead but as soon as I put the lead on her she tucks it down. ok one more question I have heard of teaching a dog to free stack, how is that done?? thanks in advance I need as much advice as I can get!!!

On one of the pics you can see what I mean when I say tail tucked lol...
Smiles,
