  What actually happens is that you enter the ring when the steward calls your number.  you set your dog down on the floor and the judge will tell you to take it around the ring in a circle.  if there are other dogs, you all go round the ring together.  Then you stop and ge down to stack your dog and wait your turn on the table.  When the person in front of you removes her dog from the table to  walk again for the judge, you set your baby on the table and stack her.  After the judge goes over her with his hands, he will tell you to do a triangle, then a diagonal line and you stop a few feet from him.  he then looks at your dog in the face to see how alert and etc he is.    Then he pulls out the best ones and they all go round the ring again and he chooses a winner.  Plus the other posters above me explained the classes and etc.  This is just what actually happens.  |
