Excellent! Hope to see you there - loads of ferret classes! And an unbelievable amount of ferret stuff was donated, so you'll be hard pushed to go away empty handed!

do you have to prebook???

never done a ferret show

__________________

No ned to pre-book - we take entries on the day at the time of the class - it's simpler that way for us! Ferret judging starts at 1pm though. Dog judging starts at 11am

Don't worry if you've never done it before - it's very friendly, someone will be able to advise you if you have any queries and the judge is lovely.

oh thanks.
is there any breed of dogs for the show as well as lurchers and terriers

__________________

There's something for absolutely any breed of dog because there's a Companion Show and a Terrier, Lurcher & Ferret Show.

The Companion show consists everything from Pedigree Dogs to Waggy Tails, Child Handlers, Appealing Eyes, Best Veteran, Best Crossbred, Best Trick, and so many more!

There is something for everyone, right from those people who are experienced exhibitors to those who have never been to a show before.

Hopefully the weather will be kind to us - I keep checking the forecast 'cos too hot is just as undesirable as rain, although in 2004 we had a thunderstorm half way through, but people were not deterred from having a good time!

yeah was at one like that just waited untill it passed.

oh is it kc reg show????
as merlin not 6 months yet but would still bring him and zak who's ok and prob tess
will see

i know pain in butt with lots of questions lol

Ask as many questions as you like!!
Yes, it is a KC registered show, but in the Terrier & Lurcher classes (which aren't subject to KC rules and regulations) they will judge dogs under 6 months.

Having said that, in the novelty classes, the judge possibly won't mind dogs under 6 months entering the ring if they would like the experience, but they won't be judged - ie won't be eligible for a rosette, but having said that, there's nothing to stop our judge handing out a "special" rosette at any time. It's all for enjoyment and charity after all.

If anyone reading this thinks that the KC would murder us for this, please let me know!

how exactly does one show a ferret? on a lead in a crate?
