So I've done it. I have a newbie to all this and have decided to try my hand at showing. I have a 14 week old pup with excellent bloodlines and while I do not know if she is show quality, I am hoping that the dozens of champions in her lines don't fail me. I have registered with our local kennel club and will be starting conformation classes in the next couple of weeks. I am lucky to live in a part of the country where I have easy access to lots of shows within a 3-4 hour driving span, so I will certainly be doing that! I have lots of questions -- I found a super friendly Yorkie show person's website and have emailed her with some questions, but I feel bad inundating her .. esp since she doesn't even know me! So I've come here looking for some answers. I hope some of you don't mind obliging =)
I'll start simply. What is the best way to train my girl how to stand nicely in the bath without sitting/jumping/gnawing on my fingers as demonstrated by the beautiful Yorkie in this video --
Thank you!
