Should I show?

[abbigail101]

I have a lab, and was just wondering if you think I should show her?
Tell me if you think i should! I will try to get some pics of her.

Show her in conformation?

How does she fit standard? Are her bloodlines good? Would she like to be in the ring?

Thanks, The lady that gave her to me said that she is pureblooded, but i don't know if she realy
is.

Okay.

If you want to show in obedience, you could use any dog as long as you train them the right way.

If you have absolutely no papers, and no idea about your dogs lines you probably can't show in conformation. Because not only would the dog have to be pure, but she would have to be a exceptional example of her breed.

Yes, exactly. We'll have to see some side profile whole body pictures of her also, her pedigree if possible. Glad you are interested in showing though!

I have papered sibs and was wondering what it would take just to try it out in a local show. i would love to see what its all about and i have beautiful dogs but i have never shown dogs before! how old do they have to be? what all do you need to know before entering the ring, please email me! crystalhiser@gmail.com

they have to be atleast 6 months to show in the puppy class (6-9 months). I would encourage you to attend a few shows to get an idea of how they are ran, and get involved with your breed club, and attend dog handling classes. You might want to get your dog evaluated before you go into the ring so they can give you a good idea of your dogs faults.
