Dog Show World - continues

Longevity in the dog show world gives you the knowledge necessary to be successful.  The more shows you attend, the more judges you will encounter.  Each judge is unique and you should learn something new with each one; the things you learn will help you to be more successful in the future.  Observing the techniques of other handlers is also very beneficial.  The handler who makes this looks easy deserves your attention.  Take the time to really watch them in the ring; many are like magicians.  

Try to keep in mind that every time your dog enters the ring, you are asking someone's opinion about them.  There will be judges that like your dog and those that don't.  Learn from what they have to say; try not to take what is said personally.  You have asked for their opinion and it has been given.
