Just have a quick question when importing from the usa as the akc does not provided export pedigrees and nzkc needs them for the registration in nz how does a person transfer the dog from akc registry to nz cheers.

Oh that would be fun, going to show classes, I will ask my friend about it, she is my mentor, but there is a bit of distance traveling between us. I will also go to the show this feb and view other breeders that are showing...thank you both for the advice :0)

Thank you so much Jed I will do that, there is a show coming up early feb so I will go and view exhibitors and their little canines. great advice. :0)

What kind of dog do you have? Is your breeder happy for you to show her. As a very wise person told me today - 'There is no such thing as a perfect dog' - every dog is going to have faults, you just have to learn how to show off their good points. My dog is a Pomeranian, she has lack of coat, stands low on her pasterns, big ears and her tail doesnt sit against her back like other poms its like a fountain, apparently there are things I can do to improve her look...but im not sure how. she is also to long in the body and weighs a bit to much. She is on a full register. I dont think the breeder cares, what people do with her dogs.

Hiya im wanting to show a dog. Im honestly considering show my female with all of her faults in a ribbon parade just to learn I cant afford right now a very expensive show dog but its all I think about. Did you show dogs with faults anyone?

Well really that does make full sence, I will need to save a bit longer, I so want to have fun showing, Pomeranians are the breed I love.

Thank you so much for your reply :0) I guess im feeling a little desperate my first dog in the breed I like is almost 2 years old she has turned out to be pet only, but well shes just lovely. I have been reading alot and know what I desire but to have that it would cost me alot of money. Do people when they first show spend alot of money or do they start at the bottem and work their way up? I have never had the opportunity to show a dog. Some days I think about entering my female in shows just so that I can learn. But then again that could be embarrassing with her many faults.

Hiya, Well Im wanting a Dog that is Kennel club registered that i can show, im confused on what I should do. One breeder that I can get a puppy off is good in some ways. She will sell to anyone, her dogs are Ok but from what I have heard not show quality. many other breeders that have show quality dogs sell them of course for a top price that I just can not afford. There is the option to import from a Aussie where of course because its a bigger place there are alot more dogs available of the breed I like. And the cost would be cheaper for a good puppy because of that reason. That would included flight etc. But then to import how do I know who is a good breeder and who isnt? I didnt think It would be so hard to get into showing and find a good canine.
