PS.. I just looked at your profile and see that you and I have something in common besides yorkies.. Antique shops! I am not an antique shop owner, but I LOVE antique shops.. When I go to bear shows, we are always browsing around for antique shops.
Puppies are usually owner handled so they can get used to showing. The puppies are shown just like the adults. Most people don't get a handler until the dog is around 18 months and in full coat. It would be great if you could attend a show so you can really see what it is all about. Are there many shows in your area or any breed clubs?

What a bear show? I love antiques and neat 'old junk'. I love going to garage sales.
