Always have someone in your set up to watch your dogs if you have to leave your set up..never know who's watching and what they'll do to your dog or things when you leave.
Always be aware of your surroundings and those around you just like you would at a mall ect...
Get to know those set up next too you so you can help each other out if you need to leave your set up. Again..( you never know who's watching and waiting ).
Never leave your dogs or grooming equipment at the dog shows especially if you have one or two dogs overnight even though it's allowed and security is on sight.
Always be watching...our dogs are our children and like our children they need our protection.
I hope these tips help those new and old to the show ring and serve as a reminder that never let your guard down and get comfortable in your surroundings.

Thanks Donna,
At times we do get complacent at dog shows.
