Well, first you have to choose a breed. What breed are you looking for?
When you say show dog I assume you mean conformation (breed specific standard characteristics being judged). Or are you talking about showing in a venue such as obedience, agility or tracking?
These are the first set of questions to answer.
Hello. I really appreciate you answering me. I would like to show Cavalier King Charles and go into the show ring and be judged on basically his looks, example of the breed. I have been a dog groomer for eight years and raised yorkie pups about 7 years ago. I went through alot trying to find the BEST examples of the yorkies I could. I was told and promised everything and was disappointed at the end result.I still can't believe the money time and effort I put into that and it's made me gunshy. I have been researching showing for a several years but it's really that I need some good advice on choosing a puppy. I know there is no absolute gurantee but alot of the people I'm comming across about choosing a pup are trying to rush me and act as if I'm affending them when asking LOTS of questions. I 'll shut up now.......Thank You, leann266:)
