OK, might be dumb questions, but

I have never seen or done this before.
1. How young do you start training a pup?
2. Do you give certain commands for the bench show?
Thanks, DJK

I like to start them early. Just dont expect to much. My best broke dog I started at 9 weeks. Just puttin her on the bench and moving feet that sort of thing. As far as commands STAY or STAND are my two. Go watch a few shows, thats how I got interested!!!!


Tara at about 10 weeks.

a few things that might help

1. go to a local show watch and ask questions

2. Look in the magazines and find a dog who captures your attention and try to copy his/her stance

3. PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE

4. BE Patient

5. Lonnie Mears has a video on Bench Training

6. Show your dogs pic on here with you standing him/her on the bench and ask for advise

Hope some of this helps

Nice Stances

Thanks everyone for the info. I have a pup coming up and thought I might be up for the challenge.

your comment made me chuckle!!!
feet issue could be breeding, could be environment - everyone has an opinion.

vit C is suggested to help the feet. it will not work overnight. I give 1000mg / day and dog calcium daily.
