Have you noticed the difference between dogs who look fine in the show rings, versus the ones who look fantastic? This difference in showmanship can be achieved with YOUR handling, training (hint: which doesn't happen in the ring), and body language techniques to bring out the best in your dog's showmanship. In this webinar, we will show you how to not just "handle", but "SHOW" your dog! The key is understanding the difference between training, handling, and SHOWING - with speed, consistency, and confidence!
