If you have not operated then there is no problem it is only if the dog has been operated on that you have to ask permission to show.

In some breeds hernias are so common they are ignored but in other breeds the judge may penalise a dog for the fault.

thank you nova for the swift reply. my vet has told me a op is not required as so small.

Then off you go and enjoy your showing, BTW if the dog is still a young pup it may disappear altogether.
