| My attempt at a topnot.... I see that the fan on top tips to one side and the gold is not evenly balanced on each side. Any other booboo's I should be aware of? And please ignore the gooby look on his face in picture B I was trying to get him to look down. Lisa

| I agree! The black soccer bow is just one of four "Boy" boys I ordered for him. He will most definitely have poppy red in his hair on Saturday! And I am thrilled, I found an xpen in new condition on Craigslist for $35 so that is taken care of as well!

| Thanks! I did a dumb move...as I have been practicing doing the stack on a table.... I have done so with bait... forgot all about putting his lead on for this part. It kinda freaked him out, he wanted to tuck his tail under. Aaaargh... and I think the glamour has worn off of chicken lol Gonna have to try a new bait. I think I have bumped my head for trying this on Saturday lol. I am instructor in training for a riding facility for children with disabilities and our fall session started this week. It's crazy hot and when I get home I am drained so the last few days I probably should have practiced more. We shall see how things turn out on Saturday : )

LOL you sound like me, we all make those mistakes. You can try "spicing" up that good ole chicken with a light dusting of parmesan cheese, It smells yummy to the dogs. For grooming n baiting I only use a special treat that they get only for those two activities. My oldest boy, god love him, will if I leave the grooming room door open, will jump up onto the grooming table to get some of that "treat". Of course he gets disappointed cause Mom ignores him, cause it is not grooming time. OH oh crazy hot, is your show indoors? If not better pack some chipped ice into a little portable cooler, do you have a little fan you can take? Remember to watch how the judge is organizing the show ring. Some judges don't want you to "stack" your dog on entry, but to stand, and when they give the signal to trot your dog around you do so. Also you have your ringside table get to ring about 15 minutes prior ring start time. Place pup up on table. watch ring. Don't carry your dog all the way into the ring. Instead at entrance to ring, put dog down on floor and walk him in on the lead. On the down n back. Sight on a stationary object and walk directly towards it. On the back to the judge, look at your dog the judge, and walk directly to the judge, stop about 1-2 ft away. If your dog freezes up and doesn't want to move, remember to speak to him, call his name in a lilting tone, and say let's go, move on or whatever the words you use. And after all of that advice, the best advice is to Relax and have Fun

| Thank goodness it is indoors with a/c. I will try the bait suggestions, he loves anything new. Y'all have been so kind to me, thank you so much for your patience with my lack of knowledge. I would so love to not completely humiliate myself : ) For a squeaker can it be one of his favorite small toys or just one of the lil squeakers that are in a fabric pouch? And when is it proper to use it if allowed?

Proper to use it, certainly on the go around, or down and back away from the judge. ON stacking , sparingly. Don't worry about humiliation, just go out have fun it is a fun match, so have fun. One other word, please I know you have a lot to think about, but try to pay some attention to the dogs around you. Best to carry your dog into the show area, and out of it. Once again best of luck. let us know what you thought of your first show experience.
