Re: How to handle all breed shows

I have done a few shows, not lots, but have found lots of rude people. They take one look at your dog and they turn the other way. Or they give you a really dirty look when your dog touches noses with theirs, even if theirs instigated the whole thing.
I have learned to keep a very close eye on my girls and walk around others, because no matter what I own a "big bad" Rottie.
But, on the flip side of the coin, I have met some really nice people that have no problems with my girls. At one of the show, I sat next to at couple with Chinese Crested, in the grooming area. They had no problems with my dogs, in fact, allowed my girls to socialize with their teeny tiny little Cresteds. So, you really never know what you will get at a show. I just figure it is best to keep my girls noses facing forward, and not give them the chance to be distracted by the other dogs. Which, is seriously hard sometimes, because all Kaylee ever wants to do is play.
