I agree it is probably better to leave your dog at home unless, it has had all of it's vaccinations and you are planning on showing your puppy and want to introduce it to the hustle and bustle of the show or would like experienced exhibitors to evaluate it. 
Have a great time but be careful.  The show bug can bite hard..haha   |  
 
  
 I totally agree! I know many of the shows are starting to crack down on making sure non-exhibitor dogs are not allowed in. There have been a few problems in the past. But it is great to go and view and learn, as well as talk to others.
The catalogs were all sold out when I got there about 8:30 AM. When we left, they still did not have any.
My girl did great for a pup. She was a bit anxious at first, so we practiced some over by obedience - nice larger area to practice and not many people. She seemed better by ring time. Still no tail up, but I think she will once she gets use to it all. She did look very pretty.  She was in the class by herself. She did okay when we had to go in for Winners though. I was pleased.
