Thanks Mary. Did you practice first in a park on the show lead with your dogs?. Razz goes for walks n hikes as you know - so he is used to feel of the grass. But I've not tried to show him on the grass... Umm think I will try 2morrow. It's finally getting sunny and warm here! yipee

Last wkend even though an indoor show the breeze was blowing through and I found it very difficult to iron coat and in particular to put in the topknot. So I begged a spot out of the breeze and then things improved. I'm going to see if there is someway I could set up in my van if worse comes to worse, breeze wise.

We do have that problem with the BRT's too - how-ever I've learned to do the show cut off site... then if God is good and gives me no wind I can touch up the topline a bit prior to show. Even though lots of problems with outdoor shows, there is nothing to beat them on a grand sunny temperate day!.

Thanks again
