I feel so much better reading that. My Gidget is so full of attitude (should have named her Regan after the girl in the Exorcist). Today I managed to get her to walk on lead for a few seconds and your're right...it was VERY entertaining!

To the OP, your puppy is adorable!

Does she do this on the floor or just on the table? or perhaps both?

Razzle fights me on the table - we are still working it out. I use a hold under butt and other hand under chin to bring him up to table. I swing him a bit back and forth and look to see if hind legs are where I want them then place hind legs down first - then lengthen his body forward to place front legs. next I place my forefinger beside jaw and try to keep his head lifted up. If god is good to me he will stay in place and have a good line. lol
Then it all falls apart when the judge comes up to him. Mainly he just wants to kiss and say hi to everybody all the time!. We are also working on that too. lol

HI!

Thanks for the kind words on Selma!

^That's what I'm used to do with my dogs, but she just won't relax her body.. She puts her feet nicely by herself, it's just the the final touch, the "proud" look that she doesn't show all the time. She's just like a teenager, "I won't and you just try to make me.." and then the expression on her face is like this

other times the proud stack comes naturally. I just really don't know when it'll appear and with my luck, the "magical moment" will not be at the show.

She is looking very nice.

Selma grew up to be a beautiful girl. Good luck with her.
Love her full tail, it certainly adds to her personality.
Also love the deep blue of her coat.
Thanks for updating this old thread, it's nice to see how
she has grown.

Females will often go through a stubborn streak and you may have a time with them. It is expected. They are female! I had one girl that at about 15 months to 21 months just decided too that she hated the table. We were in handling class one week acting like a pro and then the next week her hormones kicked in and she decided she hated the table. My trainer even asked me if this was the same girl. LOL My girl finished in 3 weekends (back to back) with an extra major. I could not believe how fast she finished! It blew my mind! I love the ones with this mean streak! And so do the judges - because they usually love the ring and show off when coming back up to the judge. Love'em!!

Just let her know who's boss and you can work with a table lower to the ground and give her treats and then work your way up higher, till you are using the regular table. She will get it.

Nice looking girl... I loved seeing the changes (clearing, etc.) over her growth!

Bravo916 · 02-02-2010, 02:00 PM

Very pretty girl!!!

I love the naughty ones too!! Makes them so much fun in the ring

Domino · 02-10-2010, 07:47 AM

Your girl is very nice,the colour is beautifull and her topline is great! And if sometimes you have some problem with his temperament -maybe you just try to use a specialle ferromones? It can help for dog to be more relaxing and then you show her favorite toy or some good food and when she will stand well for moment you just give it to her as a price.Maybe it will help?

Kicki · 02-10-2010, 08:18 AM

Yeah, this one is a stuborn little lady

I hope it is her age, that she'll grow out of this awkward behavior. Just now she's been really nice on the table, but we'll see what happens in a few weeks at a show.....

Selma 22 months in spring sunlight. She already had longer beard, but managed to destroy it... and she still fights while being stacked and now even when moving, it is so frustrating because when we're on our regular walks there's no such behaviour.
