I've been looking around for a young adult for a few months while getting ready for a new dog. I've been looking at a 2 year old brown female for quite a while, and now I'm ready and are considering buying her.
The thing is she is a show dog (3 times youth winner, 4 times winner of national shows in class with title CAC, best of breed). I know nothing about dog shows. Is there anything I should be aware of when buying a show dog? I'm not talking about things show-related, but if there is some characteristics for dogs which do good in shows that I should be aware of? Besides the obvious fact that they look good of course.
FYI the breeder seems reputable, several people in here bought from him with great experience, she's health tested, grew up in the family with children etc.
I have not met her yet because the breeder lives in eastern europe but I would be looking at flying down to meet them.
