We're Learning

We went to a Match today in Vernon, CT. Didn't really understand what this was all about at first, being that we are so new to the show world. I guess the easiest way to put it is, it's a practice show. Most of the dogs were young and they have to be shown by their owners. No professional handlers. It was also training/practice for others that had different positions in the show, ie: Judges, Stewards , ect. It would have been a perfect opportunity for Sadie and I if we had at least taken a couple of Handling classes. I didn't want to go into the ring and look foolish....you never get a second chance to make a first impression ; )
