Show lead/set
Ring clip
Brush/Comb
Dry Shampoo and Towel if needed
Benching chain (I'm guessing for a larger dog)

Comfy but smart clothes for you...

Ermm, can't think of more right now, but others will come up with some

So much of it you will learn as you go but I find this a really good reference too

Show lead set
Ring clip/s ( I need at least 4 in order to find one)
Brush/comb or whatever you use for a dallie
Wet wipes
Dry Shampoo
Benching Chain
Blanket
A sort of smallish holdall, for ages I was using this really deep backpack and it was a nightmare trying to find things at shows. Then just before crufts I was in tesco and their tesco value holdall for a fiver is just perfect for my needs . This list basically is what I have in that holdall
Water spray bottle
Travel water bowl
Breath mints
Towel
Poo bags
Pen and paper or notebook
Bait bag
Spare emergency bait


A smile and a lot of patience

All we ever took - and wouldn;t think Dally's to be much different were
A show lead
Poo bags
Treats (to TRY and encourage her to stand)
Number Clip
The show schedule
and in the car we had a bottle of water and some bedding !

Guess we were lucky though that her coat always has one hell of a shine and that she never needed sprucing up! she needs to lose acouple of pounds now - but almost thinking of taking her again!

Reckon she i looking pretty OK and she has matured a fair bit.
