In her pictures she looks very young. Most show breeders do not sell show quality until they are 8-10 months of age and sometimes older. This is after the bite has come in and you have a good idea about movement and topline as well as coat. Did you buy her as a show potential? I hope she turns out.
As I am sure your attached and want to show her. Who was your breeder that sold her to you and does she show as well? If she does and has finished/shown for many years you might have a good chance on her turning out well. In the past I have taken a chance on a younger one (purchseiing from a long time show breeder)and bought it. Because the breeder was not wanting to run it on, and I was willing to take the chance. But personally myself I do not sell show potential ever, I wait until they are older and sell show quality. As I do not want someone showing something I do not want in the ring. And selling it to young this can happen.
Your breeder once she is over 8 months of age should have a good idea if it is show or not if she has been showing and producing herself.
Good luck and enjoy your matches!
I still love puppy matches to this day!
