To this day my husband has never been in the ring, he knows how to put up a topknot, iron a coat., put a dog in wraps......but, boy he's always at ringside, helping exhibitors.....and holding dogs. |
You made me laugh! At the last show - my hubby was asked to hold dogs. I even have a photo of it. He likes it. He is such a good papa!
Gophering - I knew I was handling better when I was asked by my handler (back in the old days) to go into the ring with an extra dog she had. She would not have asked me unless I was doing something right. I felt like I had finally made it and was getting there.
