Topic Dog Boards / Showing / Clothing tips needed
- By Jeff (Moderator) Date 17.01.06 20:26 UTC
Hi all,
Need some advice on a subject NOT very dear to my heart. I work from home and when I need to visit clients I just put on a suit etc-not much thought-but looks smart so job done! :cool:
Problem is a have a black and tan dog, I also handle (badly) dogs for friends. These dogs are mainly gold, brown and occasionally white. Now the white dog is not a problem but can anybody who knows about these things suggest the best colour for showing all the others on the same day? My best guess is green but I am a bit out of my depth! And no-white trousers are not an option :-)
thanks.

Green came to my mind :) What about a lightish blue? Obviously not navy. I'm not sure about a grey, I suppose it would depend on the shade :confused:

I'm still inclined to suggest mid-grey, that's what I tried to find but couldn't - I've posted elsewhere about my stupid multi-coloured dogs!

Only going on my friends who handle rottis (black and tan thing) They generally wear light grey, light blue, oranges. Generally anything that doesn't blur the outline of the dog when standing, running etc. I even have one that wears cream. Don't know how she does it and stays cream. I've bought a lovely cream suit for crufts but i'll still be wearing my joggers and fleece in to the show and getting changed in the loo. Not taking any chances.

Megan I where ALL my suits only while in the ring, normally after the majority of grooming is done! ;)  BTW leave plenty of time to change if going to the loo or build a changing room out of friends and/or coats! :eek:
