Do you have anybody that will help you with advices and show you how to do those things ? I can imagine apprehension ! Especially with a breed where coat
is such important part of showing. I hope you will find a good mentor - maybe your handler friend and groomer would be glad to help you every step of the way . Do not worry that he is white - it is basically same grooming as black ! You will maybe need some different products that enhance white coat, but same amount of care goes for black ones.

You will do great - try to have fun - it is all about that after all : )). It should be fun for you and your pup : ))) ! You will make some mistakes , but that is normal and nothing is unfixable : ). If you mess-up the puppy coat - you can wait a few months and show him in adult coat : )) - no biggie But, I am sure that you will do just fine !!! : ))

Well, yeah she's going to be helping me a lot. She's not a pro handler but she's been handling two of her dogs for a while and she's a pro groomer. Like she said there's always someone that can offer advice and help if you've screwed things up. She will most likely be at every show I go to so she can help me fix anything I've ruined. One thing I told her was that grooming can be fixed but structure cannot. I don't care what color I just want the best structure. Which is why we went with this white boy.
