 showing
If you want nothing more then to have fun and winning is not a factor, take her to a fun match or a handling class. Why waste a ton of money and others exhabitors time to show your pet? If you find she is a show potential pup, then you can go to an AKC show and get serious.
People have the misconception that showing dogs are for fun and pets are welcome...not so..it is a very serious endeavor, entered by people who are dedicated to the betterment of the breed...no one has fun if you and your untrained pet have no clue what you are doing..you will go home with hurt feelings and a bad taste in your mouth for show people.
Of course, this is America and you may do as you wish.
Best of Luck |
