ADBA show question

    After investing in some brightly-colored, wide 1.5" collars for my girl for ADBA stuff, I learned that it is actually more beneficial to have a narrower collar that blends into the dog's coat. They say that a wider collar will distort the dog's neck and make it appear short. And I'm guessing that the bright colors draws attention away from the dog?

    Next time I show my dog in ADBA, I'm going with this gear. Kinda hard to see from the pics, but its a 1" leather collar with deerskin inside, and a 4' leather leash.

    Although I'd love to show up in my UKC gear just once and give some folks a heart attack. ROTF!

    Just kidding, of course. :)

    No there are no dress codes or anything and it is a relaxed environment but you'll get alot more respect wearing similar attire to the judge . He took the effort to dress a certain way showing honor and respect to the dogmen of old . Remember all the old pics you see of the handlers wearing suits ? I saw Irish Jerry judge in a suit and tie . If two dogs are even in the judges eye you can bet he'll give the blue ribbon to the handler dressed with class over the guy in flip flops and a wife beater .

  5. go to the adba website. click on show calender. then find the show in the month it is and click on it. below the calender info will appear on that show. there is usually at least 3 phone numbers to members of the hosting club and you can call them. they will almost always have a list of places to stay.
