First Ringcraft Class
« on: April 30, 2012, 01:23:51 PM »
Does anyone have any tips / recommendations on preparation for our first ringcraft class?

I've asked about leaders but don't know what else I should be preparing for...if anything.

Make sure you have show lead, poop bags, treats, water, brush, etc, and....enjoy. Try not to take too much in in your first week as it can be quite a daunting place and don't worry too much if you dog isn't perfect straight away, it takes a while and that's what you are there for!! Good luck  :D

I don't have a lead but I've asked about that already. I had totally forgotten about water although I'd have remembered before I went.

I second the poo bag- indie did a number two during our first ringcraft class a few weeks ago! I had a bag thank goodness- at least everyone remembered her!

Every coat and bag I own has a stash of poo bags, even my work coat :005:

At least Indie was making sure she was noticed...
