| Handling the Conformation Dog
"What is good handling? When one watches a dog and handler working together as if they were in a "dance," it is truly a wonderful sight. The dog is not overshadowed by the handler, but rather acts as if it is alone, center stage, in the spotlight. To achieve this is the ultimate for dog and handler." (1) "How to reach that point is not that simple. There are many ways to approach the "how to," but it's best to keep it basic, especially for the novice handler."(2) In our Paws for Fun Conformation Handling classes, this is just what we will do; keep it simple, keep it basic, and keep it focused -- directly on your show dog. We provide expert instruction with constant and constructive feedback, so that you and your dog will be the best that you can be in the show ring. Welcome to Paws for Fun! We look forward to meeting you and your dog very soon! To sign-up for the next Conformation Handling class please contact Brenda Staley.
