G Handling Solutions
As a dog show handler Gregor is a professional responsible for presenting purebred dogs to judges in conformation events, also known as dog shows. His primary role is to showcase a dog’s breed-specific characteristics and adherence to the breed standard set by kennel clubs or breed organizations. Here are some key aspects of the profession:
Knowledge of Breeds
A dog show handler must have extensive knowledge about various dog breeds, including their standards, traits, and specific grooming requirements. This knowledge helps them present each dog in its best possible light.
Training and Grooming
Here at G Solutions we are skilled in grooming and training dogs for the show ring. We ensure that the dog’s coat is well-maintained, nails are trimmed, and the overall appearance adheres to breed standards. Training involves teaching the dog to stand, move, and behave appropriately during judging.
Communication with Owners
We work closely with the dog’s owner or breeder to understand the dog’s background, temperament, and specific traits. Effective communication is crucial for presenting the dog in a way that highlights its strengths.
Presentation Skills
Handlers need to exhibit excellent showmanship skills. Our goal is to showcase the dog’s movement, structure, and overall conformation to emphasize its best features. This includes presenting the dog in a way that highlights its breed-specific attributes and adheres to the judge’s criteria.
Ring Etiquette
We are familiar with the rules and etiquette of dog shows. They must navigate the show ring confidently, positioning the dog in a way that allows the judge to thoroughly assess its conformation.
Fitness and Endurance
Dog shows can be physically demanding, requiring handlers to be fit and agile. They may need to jog or run with the dog during specific portions of the judging process. G Handling Solutions will ensure your dog is at its peak physique.
