– Anyone who has ever lost to a lesser dog in the conformation show ring!
Regardless of whether you are competing for the Winner’s points, Best of
Breed, the Group, or even Best in Show, this clinic can help you sharpen your
Winning Edge! This clinic is designed to educate the participants, it is not
intended to be a training session for the dogs.
Please bring only ring-wise, well
mannered dogs over one year of age.
Dogs must be current on all vaccinations (you must bring proof of rabies
vaccine). Handlers may alternate
between dogs. Crating areas inside
the building will be available for your convenience.
Dogs must be crate trained as they will be in a separate room from the
seminar.
Dogs that are disruptive will have to be
removed from the building.
Weather permitting, you may wish to leave you dogs in your vehicles.
Parking is adjacent to the building which is in a secluded complex. Only individuals who have enrolled in the seminar will be permitted in the building. Children who wish to participate must be over nine years of age and handle dogs of appropriate size and temperament. Any individual under eighteen years of age must have a parent or legal guardian sign the registration form prior to enrollment in the seminar.
COURSE LEVELS: Beginner (Limited to 20 Participants with dogs): This class is geared toward the novice exhibitor and Junior Handlers.
Advanced
(Limited to 20 Participants with dogs):
This class is for participants who are at the point that they do not have
to consciously think about their every move. Observers (Unlimited): This is extremely beneficial if you have never attended before. This offers a great opportunity to listen and learn without the distraction of a dog. At the end of the seminar there will be a competition for Best Handler in each class. These two winners will compete with each other and a rosette being awarded for Best Handler in Show. A rosette will also be awarded to the student who is Most Improved at each level. Participants should wear appropriate “show clothes”, such as rubber soled shoes. It is also suggested that you bring pencil and paper in order to take notes. Mr. Alston is a demanding teacher and he makes no bones about calling it like he sees it. If you bring a tough skin and a desire to learn, you will walk away having attended one of the most enlightening and useful seminars ever!
