I hope you don't mind, but I have a few question regarding dogs with show potential and breeders. Any info you could give on the subject would be great.
1: Did you have to make any kind of commitment to showing your dog a certain number of times or have it reach its championship by a certain age?
2: How do breeders decide on the best home, do they generally turn away beginners for established breeders?
3: How much experience did you have with the breed before your first show prospect?
4: How long did you wait before talking to breeders?
How soon is too soon to ask questions?
I'm just curious, I know if I ever get another dog I would wait and get one with show potential.
After researching the breed standard for a certain breed, I have become increasingly interested in showing someday when I feel experienced enough in the breed.
Thanks :)
