I know for me, preparation is key. Have mock shows with a friend or something. So, that Heidi is used to that kind of thing. See if you can get small group to clap and make noise around her if she's never been around a crowd. Do whatever you can to simulate the situation you'll both be in. Whatever you need to do to feel comfortable with the situation. You have almost a month, you can be a pro by the time you get there! I don't know where you could go to learn what you need to know, but, I'm sure with a little research, you can find the resources!
Thank you for the advice! There really isn't any place to go except for Agility and I *probably* could take her to obedience class once in awhile, but she isn't signed up for it so I don't want to go barging in, ya know. But the intstructor has told me before to just bring her around every once in awhile. She used to show her GSP, she doesn't have them anymore, so she wants to get together with me but she is SO busy, its just crazy! Do you show Finn, or do/did you show another dog you have/had?
