Needless to say, after showing the yorkie for a couple of weeks she admitted that she just could not handle showing yorkies and she returned the yorkie to the owner. Of course the owner learned a lesson also and she then got a handler that was familiar with yorkies and the dog finished.

Handlers are not cheap but a person is much better off hiring a reputable handler because there are some handlers that will take advantage of unsuspecting newbies.
There are some handlers that will take them ringside, but groomed.
