    Oh i apologise, I misread the post crufts put up on facebook, when I read it originally I thought they said there were rules however its actually states only guidance. Heres hoping they do learn from this and chane the rules next year!

    Terrier specialist or not it is clearly written in the rules that the handling is not allowed, as a top judge he should be familiar with these rules and enforce them.

    Are you sure? It was stated very clearly in the paperwork sent out to all exhibitors that terriers were not allowed to be picked up by the tail.

    It said 'not necessary' rather than 'not permitted'

    I was showing at Crufts this year for a first time and have to say that both myself and my dog enjoyed it. The whole day is about him, he gets attention, a ton of treats, rubs from other people and he likes being in the ring. Shame I can't post a video of him running in the ring wagging his tail, he loves it :)
    As for show dogs being mistreated, I agree it shouldn't happen at all, however I'm sure that there's plenty of purely pet dogs who are mistreated as well, so it's not only show people who are bad (not all and not all the time of course)
    I own a short coated breed, so not much grooming (if any), I actually didn't even give him a bath, just grabbed the dog, show bag and off we went :)
    Other than that, he lives a very normal life, goes for walks, runs in the fields, plays fetch, trains agility and sleeps on the sofa :)

    And here's a photo from the ring, one happy smiley dog :)

    Aw ACD!! Didn't know you were showing, otherwise we'd have come to see your dog and cheer him on! :(

    How's my boy Green Puppy getting on in his new home?

    Shame, I was so busy with everything I didn't think of mentioning here that I was going :) Maybe next year :) Green Boy's doing great, he went to Tipperary and accompanies his owner everywhere even to work, I'm getting regular updates and pictures and he looks sooo happy. I think I picked the right home for him :)
