The World of Bully Shows

So wanting to start showing your bullys in the show ring don't know where to start , I will share with you some of our tips in the ring to help get you going. 1. Please bathe your dog , noone wants to see a dirty dog in the show ring, go all out and spit shine them bullys nails ,ears & coat. Try to bathe your bullys the night before . To shine their coat before going into the ring there are sprays to shine their coat or you can just wipe them down with a wet baby wipe before entering the show ring. 2. If you are showing a xl bully and they have a hard time keeping their footing on the concrete floor , you can spray a little aqua net hair spray on the bottoms of their paws to give them a little better footing ,so they aren't slipping and sliding all over. 3. Try to walk your bully around the show once or twice or in the show ring before they start the show espically if the bully is new to the show ring this will help him with the nerves, but not to much walking around as shows can be exhausting for the dogs espically in the warmer weather. 4. Keep your bullys head up in the show ring, keep the nose off the ground. You can use some kind of tempting treat in one hand to try and keep their head up . 5. Most of all practice , practice , practice you need to practice stacking your bully at home . Learn the faults of your dog, keep an open mind and see your dog through other peoples eyes , in our eyes all our dogs are the best , but keep it real and learn your faults so you can correct it in the show ring.
