i have a pup that i am going to hunt but i figure it wouldn't hurt to show him and was wondering how some of you guys get them to show on the bench.

Practice Practice and More Practice Just start the Pup on the Bench ,table, crate , anywhere and place it in a stack or show stance If you do not know the proper way tha a dog should be stacked then get someone that has been doing it awhile to show you. They must also be lead trained So that they know how to act on the lead The best way to acomplish this is to start young and go to a few dog handling classes alot of the pet areas or show clubs and all breed clubs offer them. They are well worth the money.
