She was in conformation class with 4 dogs that were all over 50lbs and she did good. When she is afraid she drops her hind end and doesn't look straight. But all of mine do that. If she keeps her confidence up I think she will do fine. I am really impressed with her. I literally just started working with her. I got a grooming table at the show Saturday and it is very sturdy. I should not have put her on that unsturdy table. She was really afraid. Her confidence shows in the very last photo where she looks very alert. She is a very pretty girl and her coat is a dream. Getting her accustom to being handled is my objective now and growing her coat. She has been a lap dog so she's not use to having to work for treats. lol So that's my focus with her now. She is a pleaser so I have no doubt that she can do it. |
Well, it sounds like you are doing great with her. I am sure you will bring out the best in her. I do wish you the best of luck with her and your boy. I am looking forward to seeing you at some shows next year.
