I hope you catch the show bug !! |
UKC shows are more relaxed. And my first judge was really nice. The 2nd one wasnt mean...just harder to empress. There was a few people there who really knew what they were doing...but a lot more, like me, who doesnt do it as much. I did have fun, but i would rather be showing Yorkies....I dont know the first thing about the group i was repersenting.
. Plus i would rather be showing my own dog....its hard to keep a dogs attention when the owner is either behind you our just out side the ring in eye view of the dog.
