Dog Showing

When you are convinced, after doing your research and following all the suggested material, your dog is beautiful, well-trained and conditioned for the show ring, and you are familiar with the show ring and what is expected of you and your dog, you are ready to enter your dog in a show.  When deciding which show to enter, first find out who is judging your breed in your area.  Dog show novices should seek judges who are not only experts in their breeds but are also patient and encouraging to handlers who are just starting out.  Your breeder or mentor would be a good source for this type of information.  As you gain experience, look for judges who like the type of dog you are showing.  This is a good article that everyone would enjoy reading.
