We have Betty (Claripugs Lady Elizabeth) clue in the name - a Pug, and we show her at The Pug Dog open shows, just for fun and we do not take it too seriously, she has had 2 firsts, but nothing last Sunday at Brackley, we show her because we have had 2 rescue pugs in the past, and as we bought her as a puppy thought we should see, and of course the first time we showed her she won 1st puppy, so that was it we have shown her a few times since.
no way!!!!!!
This is my wifes hobby, i like to go especially if we can make a weekend or more out of it, but its her thing.
Im happy if shes happy and i was proud as punch with her friday.
Indy is the first puppy we have bred ourselves,
so is a credit to sue.
our yougest, Rio, had her first shows last weekend and she got a 2nd and 3rd so were off to a good start there too.
all the very best to everyone who shows.
oops, ive just been told off!
not knowing quite as much about dogs as my wife,
ive just been told it was a german shepherd, not an alsation that decided to take a chunk out of the back of indys leg.
in private i wasnt calling it either of those names

Talking about the differences with show and working dogs, this depends of course on the gene pool available. In Sussex Spaniels (see my avatar) due to being one of the countries rarest dogs there is as yet no distinction between these show and working gundogs. In fact my Bracken (Marquell Lite My Fire) was bought as a gun dog not a show dog but has 5 generatons of Field trial winners and show champions in his pedigree. In fact his mother is a show champion and his father is a field trial winner.
My last dog was completely different, a Laborador from the working Drakeshead bloodline and he was half the height and half the weight of a show Lab.
No dog at the moment Gaz, Sorry about the GSD biting your dog. Totally agree about the difference between show dogs and working dogs. For example, how many police dogs do you see with dodgy back legs?
À tous mes amis du forum thankyou pour toutes vos pensées agréables et avec son amour derrière moi je lutterai contre mon conflit avec un esprit de postive et le triomphe
Hi we used to show pugs (jansclan sir Galahad ) but we decided it was not in the dogs best interest to get up at stupid o'clock be driven long distances stuck in a small cage then put on a bench again in a small cage only to be taken out of it for 20 mins to be paraded around a ring then stuck back in the cage for another ? Hours with only the occasional toilet break then finally the long drive home stuck in a cage all in the name of vanity but what really got to me was all the exhibitors patting each other on the back and saying how much the dogs enjoyed their day out.but despite a good success rate we put our dog first
