I do also want to add that a great thing to do and it's suggested in the first book I suggested and that is to take any dog you have to handling classes. Not to prepare them for the ring but to prepare you to show your dog properly. Handling classes are great if you can get to them. I used to be able to go to handling classes until I started working in the evenings over a year ago. I had to do my own training but because I remembered and applied what I learned at class and what Pat Hastings talks about in her books. I have an easier time with getting these pups started.
