Chewy started in training at 15 wks ... Chara and Zero (my other two) go as well but they started later in life. All do excellent and look quite funny mixed in with the Mals. Zero has turned into quite the looker with his perfect heels prancing like a pony.
As my trainer said 'Lets turn this dog into a real specimine and show for the breed'
I dont show because I am not a big fan of it and there is no point in really showing for wins if there is no competition, I can see doing it for fun but training is more interesting to me and I have nothing to prove.
All that traveling when you have young children new home, husband is taxing... I rather spend my time with them.
I will say that it isnt easy.. I did one show Zero hated it and I as well.
I have been asked by people to use him as a stud but I havent made up my mind yet.
