I would have to agree with this point to an extent. I think this is also a
generalization. I am a newbie. I purchased my foundation bitch and first ever
show dog in August of last year. I have taken every bit of advice from all my
mentors and probably driven them nuts with questions along the way! I have
done classes, road work, kept her at a great weight, etc. They even got me
hooked up with this list. I should mention that my girl has won her class in 6
of 8 shows entered. I would have to assume I'm doing something right (that and
I have an awesome dog!!). In fact, besides my mentors, most everyone I've met
ringside have been awesome! From reading some of the other posts though, I
guess I should consider myself very lucky.

All breeders have had people tell them they want to show but then sometime
down
the line, socker comes first. The handling classes necessary to train the
young dogs is just too far away and what's wrong with a few table scraps. The
dog is way overweight and try as hard as you will, asking them to see the last
rib just doesn't work. How many new people are willing to put their house pet
in a run to encourage double handling? How many couch potato dogs make good
show dogs? How many know how to properly road work? House pets often do not
show well...that is a fact. How many breeders tell their new people that?
There is so much more to learn then just the basics.
