I have a tack box for my show set up with almost everything in it......Outward hound, canvas Another bag with all the essentials, wipes, small blow dryer, bungie cords, water bottles, piddle pads, table cover, grooming arms.
Are you talking ringside, ringside? I have a ringside bag from Chris Christensen....in it I take a comb with a rattail for parting, a couple of brushes, box of small bands hairspray, small spray bottle of antistat.....box of mints, need to pop those....your dog can smell your nerves through your breath...lipstick, some paper towels, I do add other things appropriate for each dog. I usually keep the ringside bag packed at all times.....
There is a butaine hot iron, mine is a Conair, but I've had it for years........goggle it.....I know in California, most show sites do not provide electrical, so I usually groom the dog at the hotel or home, do the topknot at the show site and last minute straightening with the cordless.......
California has made me change my equipment.....everything is loaded onto a cart and stays there......Crate, table on top, chair, portable sea-breeze x-pen
