Does anyone know of any ringcraft classes in the portsmouth area? I was thinking about showing, although Rosie may be a little to old to start at 2 and a half. What type of shows should I start her at? How much does it cost and do I need anything to get me started? Any advice would be great, I guess I just need a bit of a shove in the right direction, i'm a bit of a wimp with starting new things and I do find the show world a little daunting lol

Have you googled Ringcraft
There is a database somewhere on the net - it is a little out of date though, someone may be able to provide te link! I cannot remember where it is. Noushka, pommum and a few more will likely have the info at their fingertips

I found one site called best of breeds.com but they had none within 45mins - hour drive.

Im just trying to find about one in portsmouth i will let you know if i find any
2 1/2 is not old atall, i would start off and do a few open shows but if you feel your dog is doing really well at ring classes you can go straight into champion shows.! Prices and all different but club shows and open shows tend to be more cheaper than the champion shows i have found any way lol.
You could find out when the next club show for your breed is and go along to that and see what its all about introduce you self ect.!
All you really need is to enter your dog into the classes at the show you are taking them to.
and all you need to really take is your dog you and a show lead lol
best of luck kerry x

You may have to travel a fair distance most of our breed shows are held in stafford so that means us taking a nearly a two hour drive..


Opps i thought you ment shows lol i now think you ment ring classes sorry

I dont mind travelling to the shows it was the ring craft classes I dont fancy driving an hour each way every week lol. Rosie isn.t that great at travelling but she has got much better as she has got older. Do you think the judge would mind if she had sick on her lol
