For AKC and FCI there are multiple sites you can visit to enter DogShows. As far as social media goes , you find shows there but you cannot currently enter a show through any social media platform

You can quickly find yourself spending big money on big health problems due to bad breeding.

I have a friend active in the show world. She’s always flying overseas and she frequently spends $50,000/yr having dogs trained and boarded. Does she get more money for her pups than most people? Yes

A LOT of people choose a dog based on its looks and/or its reputation, or the impression it will make on others.

Heartworm is a painful and terminal illness. treatments for a dog who has Heartworm ranges from $ 500 - $ 1500 and its brutal on the dog and weakens their hearts for life. Heartworms is totally preventable with one pill a month.

Its sad when a normal dog rescue charges $150 - $250 to adopt a dog and people think that the rescue or charity is making money.

If you buy a show quailty pup.. DO SOMETHING WITH IT!!!

If you’re about to buy a high energy dog off a good breeder, watch their face when you say you live in a city, You will need more than luck getting approved.

Sometimes a groomer is needed for dogs with hair that's so matted no way could you get a brush through their coat. Expect to pay much less overall and have a better condition dog if you visit a groomer once a month

You should study the breed you want before buying it, this is an endemic problem, you see hundreds of crazy hunting/working dogs in the responsibility of people that don’t fulfil their needs.

Judging is a privilege which requires professionalism and awareness.

Bad grooming can make dog look structurally unsound for example clipping the topline to look arched or swayed when it isn’t

You should be able to see the puppy’s parents, brothers and sisters, and where they were raised. Good breeders have nothing to hide and will brag about their work.

Breed standards of dogs are very old almost all were created over 100 years ago
