Are you sure it's tomorrow there's no show in the KC diary for them tomorrow
- By mygirl [gb] Date 22.10.05 16:03 UTC
Are you sure its not next month? The show for next year is in November.
Anyway if it helps that show next year is at Rhondda sports centre perhaps give them a ring to see if its booked for this month?

just in case you look in before going, type the address in the box on this site and you can change the map to get a wider or more close up view of where to go ;)  Good luck at the show :)

Sorry haven't had a chance to get near the computer before now!!  damn family :rolleyes:  they always want feeding on a sunday!! :D

No, I was at a show yesterday so didn't want to do 2 shows in 1 weekend ;)

Hope you got there ok!

And how did you do??  was it worth the effort?  :D

Well all went ok in the end.....i was nervous though being our first show. We entered open Ridgeback as there was no puppy class and she got 1ST and BOB... However we were the only one in the class so was a little dissapointing and she wasnt happy about the judge being a man touching her, something we have to work on. People there told me to withdraw from the second class we entered which was AV HOUND puppy and to go for group, but i decided to go for av puppy anyways as didnt want to come away deflated. I was glad we did as we did much better in that class, i felt a little better and Lexy did too and she got a 3rd out of 6. I was so proud of her. We have a champ show in dec so ive entered lots of opens for practice before then. She will be fine, its me that needs it, i was shaking like a leaf.
Thanx for all your help

Well done It's nervewracking that first step into the ring & every class is good practice for you as well as your dog ;)

Maybe some Rescue Remedy for you next time :D or just the brandy ;)

I still remember my first show & was only a nipper way back in the 50's :D
- By Dill [gb] Date 25.10.05 10:57 UTC
Well done! :)  don't worry about being the only one in the class, you'll find more RRs at other open shows :)  

MM's right about the rescue remedy, it's brilliant, I give it to dogs that are a bit nervous and take it myself if I feel 'strung up' 
When I first started showing I used to shake like a leaf and couldn't remember anything - even my dogs name :eek: Rescue Remedy helped a lot!
