Blow dryer - what the heck is that:)
I bathe my dogs the day before. I never really fuss over their coats. It is
what it is. When we have a 2 or 3 day show weekend, they get bathed on
Thursday and are good till we get back home.
Sometimes, I spray coat formula on their show side and run a pin brush through
it - rear to front - but that is all.

Thanks, Barb!!
I always have fun because I love her and she's my dog! Plus, I have never
missed a Westminster since I could remember!! Just love the whole thing....
But, now, I am trying to figure out what blow dryer to buy as, apparently, I
will need one!! I was told it makes more sense to groom her myself than
continue bringing her to a groomer every time I want to show. As a side note,
when do you all groom before a show? Day before?
Thanks,
Sara

That is the main thing - having fun! Don't let anyone rain on your parade.
And, no question is a stupid question, so keep asking the "experienced"
breeders for information. Remember, all breeders started as novices, too.
They asked questions, studied the breed standard, went to shows, studied
pedigrees, etc.

Diane,
That is a FANTASTIC idea!!!!! Maybe some of you bigger breeders could bring
hat idea back to the table!!!!! How exciting!!!!
I just don't know WHY the structural changes were made? My thinking is if I can
nderstand the reason that I may be able to make more sense of it.
Yes, I watch them all the time and I think I am improving(well, I *think* I am
nyway)! I always have fun showing her because I love her..... :-)

> Barb, the example you gave about the difference in types between UKC and AKC
as more to do with a divergence in type between working dogs and conformation
ogs. In a lot of the sporting breeds, the field dogs almost look like a
ifferent breed from their conformation counterparts. That's why it was
uggested that we have a working dog class at our National, to emphasize that
orrect conformation makes it a lot easier for the working dog to perform its
ask. The person making that suggestion got their head handed to them. @Sara -
reeders have made structural changes in the GSD. If you look at dogs from the
960's and today's dogs you can see that. As far as I can tell, there has been
o corresponding change to the standard, so I don't know how breeders justified
he structural changes. I guess the same standard that applied to the earlier
ogs applies now to today's dogs. But I know the earlier dogs would not win in
oday's conformation ring. Sara, if you are physically a
bl
e to show your own dog, learn as much as you can by watching the pro handlers.
he style of showing is different between the all breed and speciality rings.
how your dog and have fun.
