Descriptions du produit

From Amazon.com

Dog shows are phenomenally popular, immensely competitive, and often perplexing for beginners. Show Me offers easy-to-follow tips and words of wisdom for those new to this challenging sport. Author D. Caroline Coile is quick to point out that the average pet pooch (although lovely in your eyes) will not make it in professional competitions. Most show dogs are bred for this very purpose, and the book includes practical advice for selecting and raising your top dog. (Can you really handle that Great Dane?)

Coile divulges her immense knowledge of competition culture, from grooming tips and obedience training to the psychology of dealing with competition loss. Crisp color photographs and expertly drawn pencil sketches of that perfect show dog will capture the imagination of any would-be competitor.



Product Description

What are the physical qualities and special training methods that make a good dog a prize-winner? When is it better to hire a professional handler, and when should owners show the dog themselves? Here are answers to these and many more questions. Owner's will find advice on grooming, training, dress rehearsals, and understanding the points that judges are looking for. Many full-color photos.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Eminently readable, enjoyable introduction to showing dogs, Déc 27 2003
Par T. McRae (Wallingford, CT United States) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
Though I'm not likely to become a breeder or exhibitor, I've attended a half-dozen shows in the past six months in order to follow a particular breed. More puzzled than enlightened, I soon found that I needed to find out what all this activity was about. This book has answered many of my questions in a serious-minded yet easy-to-read style, and it is a keeper for my library - just in case I get bit by the show bug. There are certain tricks of the trade that the beginner should watch out for, as in any pursuit, as well as accepted procedures and proper etiquette, which too many beginners learn only by trial and error. An eye-opener of a book, and just plain fun for anyone who loves dogs.

5.0étoiles sur 5 This book is a gem!, Aoû 16 2003
Par Word Tapestry (Fairfield, CA United States) - Voir tous mes commentaires
Ms. Coile does a wonderful job of explaining all the important elements in showing a dog. It isn't the first book I've read on the subject but it is the best. It is clear and comprehensive and provides wonderful illustrations--finally, a visual of the various patterns (down & back, the L, the triange!) and an explanation of "pacing" versus "trotting." A wealth of information at small cost! Our bouvier is on his way...

5.0étoiles sur 5 The Best Handling Guide Ever, Aoû 3 2002
This is a great book! It has really helped me.
I am a Junior Handler in shows, but I don't yet have a dog, so I show other peoples dogs.
I really enjoyed reading this book. It has so many helpful tips and pointers. I read it before I go to bed, and I also practice my ring procedures with a stuffed dog.
This book has done so much for me. So, if you are new to dog shows, like I am, this is definately the book for you. I would recomend this to newcomers, like myself.
After reading this, I attended my 5th show. I came in first and that was all I needed to make it to the Junior Nationals, where I placed first.
Read this book. If it can help me, it can help you too!
