USCA Sieger Show – Lake Geneva, WI May 10-13, 2013
Expert handler has classes available for UScA Sieger Show
May 10, 2013 weekend: I have classes available; let me know ASAP if you would like me to show your dog. I offer many years experience as an expert show handler, and as an SV breed judge. I know the judges well, what they are looking for, and what they want from handlers. Remuneration negotiable, but I ask for only a pro-rated share of my expenses, not any extra fee for handling. (The more dogs I show, the lower the amount.)
Whether or not I show your dog, I will have copies of my books available. You really should have the GSD book and the Orthopedics Disorders book, too. Order in advance so I pack enough for the trip.

Dazz is a medium-size, extremely well-balanced male with far-reaching fluid gait and true coming and going. Among the few that moved as smoothly were some of his offspring, so he obviously is producing high quality, and is not just a flash in the pan. Continue reading
