Bjelkier Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 Personally I don't do formal show training. I teach my babies at home for a couple mins a day. It's worked well for me so far. My little girl could free stack perfectly at 10 weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOGWARTZBOXERS Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 Atua i would not be taking a pup to show training untill it is fully vacinated, and i could be wrong but i would say 12weeks like entring shows I agree. The training is a secondary, your most important issue at this age is socialisation, get puppy out there with the others and walking on a lead, making sure puppy is having a good time, then slowly include the training as a game. We hold classes at Caboolture Kennel Club on Wed. nights at 7pm if you are not to far away. Cheers Hogz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atua Posted July 6, 2010 Author Share Posted July 6, 2010 yea its 3 months from calander dates so not 12 weeks. Our Whippet baby is 3 months on the 15th July and her first show is the 18th July. She was born on the 15th April. Thanks for the advice guys we have been practising at home but we really want her to get used to the other dogs etc. Hogz I am in logan so caboolture is a little far away but i will bring her to your grounds for the shows:P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
