There’s a lot to do for your dog and for yourself if you are going to show in a big time dog show. First, decide which AKC (American Kennel Club) show to show in. Make sure you’ve already registered your purebred canine with the AKC and make sure you yourself are also registered in order to have access to show preparation lists and other helpful insights. When it comes to preparing for the show, talk with AKC officials and let them know it’s your first time signing up. They can help direct you to some practice shows to participate in. They may also recommend attending a few shows as a spectator to help prepare yourself on how to act and how to handle your dog during the showing process. In addition to these areas, the AKC website also has helpful articles that give tips on how to dress, how to prepare your dog, etc. Talk to your Washington DC veterinary clinic for additional tips as well.
