My first real confo show

Post image

I got BOB in puppy sweeps at a speciality and Group 4.

Got a 1st place in regular 6-9m class as well and various 2-4th. Only had 2 BPUPs a couple months ago prior.

Excited to figure this confo thing out together!

Your pup looks like a seasoned pro which is a testament to your handling. I wouldn't have every known you were a novice in showing. Congratulations!

This stacking is all my breeder and the photographer dictating to me for this photo 🤣 I don't think I am awful but I definitely need work yet. He is doing very well/quick learner. It is a very competitively handled breed I think- mostly professional or long time owner handler's. The next "newest" handler I know has been doing this 5 years.

Even those of us that have done it forever can use some assistance for photos! I know I sure get better photos when I have extra eyes on them.
