The showing thread

Jean very much knows what she’s doing - hers was one of the most incisive critiques I’ve ever received, pinned down his faults and virtues exactly in one paragraph - however that breeding is unlikely to be the type I like. At least it’s a puppy out and about.

Yes, he is Jean's. He was small, black, fluffy and foxy
...my entire Schip knowledge I wouldn't know anything about lines/types or what makes a good one!

Terrier, gundog and hound group are more my jazz!

Yeah, that's a schip in a nutshell. I bet he was cute as a button and he will do well, and she will use him on something unexpected and produce something I do really like, because magic breeder skills.

Suri went to Midland Counties yesterday and had to go into post graduate as there wasn’t a graduate class. Handles by my friend as my sciatica is playing up she totally smashed it and won the class then down to the final 4 for the CC/RCC. This win now takes her out of graduate she is truly in with the big girls

Aspen hit the show ring at a Christmas open show today and was a saint, no problem with bite/testicles/being gone over. Moved much better than at ring craft. It was his first time showing indoors on carpet, Christmas music playing, Santa and elves in costume around the show etc. Handled it like a pro

Show hotel list of important things....identifying the nearest drive through Starbucks and decent takeaway or dog friendly pub

Manchester show next week, we have an entry of 14 in breed but only 8 in rare breed gundog classes.

Skipping Manchester for the first time in years, all rounder judge we've been under before. Many have also voted with their feet, entry of 12.

Small one had two incisors removed in December (with the last of my staff discount ) so I'm going to have to be selective about where I enter now, I know there's plenty that won't overlook missing teeth even in a veteran.

Authority to show letter to the steward before and they really shouldn't be considered an issue!! Pity some judges haven't read the rule book

I thought you chose your accommodation based on the cocktail menu?! good luck! Can’t wait to hear how you get on!

Ringcraft for us begins again last week of Jan, he’s always been a very easy boy to show so hopefully won’t be too problematic
