Does anyone show their dogs??

[CJ7Boomer]

Thanks-Lou Dog loves his cowboy hat- you tell him he looks handsome and he hams it up he also has a disqualifying fault- only one eye has a full black circle around it but i love it

Is Misty the little brown puppy one in the corner?

[Dogz]

I *think* Misty is the one in the other corner.

sorry other right! she is the border collie with the big prick ears!

we dont do any conformation showing as all 3 dogs are not pedigree (2 crossbreeds and 1 non pedigree Chihuahua)

But we do compete in Obedience and Flyball, and i want to do Herding, Agility & Tracking as well one day but at the moment we are too busy with Obedience and Flyball

I am interested in someday getting my pup, a GSD mix, into something like flyball...can someone give me a basic explination of these different activities you are talking about and how to get involved in them. Thanks

Well, usually your city will have a dog club and that dog club has a flyball team that goes everywhere to these matches or races I should say and the dogs have to jump over jumps and grab a ball and run back over the jumps, it's a relay basically, with dogs that's really fun to watch! and gets energy out of your dog!

You don't agree with showing but you agree with breeding?
That makes no sense to me at all. Are you going to be responsible? And how responsible can you be if you are breeding when you are only 16? I think the most responsible thing I see you doing is waiting until she is 2. This makes me very sad.
I only agree with breeding if you are trying to better the breed and try to breed any undesirable things out of the breed. I certainly hope you advocate spaying and neutering of your puppies.
If you breed I hope you rescue.

oh BTW
I don't show.
I don't breed.
Keegan is fixed for her health.
She is a registered GR.
I have no desire to show her. I love her more for what her heart is not what she wins.
