Here is an all-inclusive accurate pic-
ture of dog shows and the problems
of dog handling. Interestingly and
informatively written it shows the
reader how he can double the en-
joyment he gets out of placing his
dog in shows, by handling the dog
himself. How much more rewarding
it is to know that you have been a
part of making your dog a cham-
pion than merely to have been a
spectator.
In How To Show Your Own Dog
Mrs. Nichols covers the field step
by step from the early training that
a show animal should receive, down
to the day by day, hour by hour
procedure to be followed in all kinds
of dog shows, big and small. There
is even a chapter on equipment,
another on what to do and what not
to do when you re waiting for your
turn to show, another on how to be-
have in the ring and with the judges.
One of the best known breeders and
show ring personalities in the East,
Virginia Tuck Nichols is eminently
qualified to write a book on shows
and handling. In the years when she
helped to run the famous Silvermine
Kennels she did most of the showing
and made many champions. Aside
from the fabulous Silvermine Eng-
lish Setters she has shown Beagles
and English Cockers, here again
coming away with many honors. To
have the dog she is showing go Best
In Show has been an ordinary occur-
rence for her.
Mrs. Nichols has not only shown all
over the country, she has also lec-
tured and given live demonstrations
on the proper way to condition dogs
for the show ring. In HOW TO
SHOW YOUR OWN DOG she
brings to the reader a lifetime of
working with dogs and the experi-
ence of handling them in scores of
shows ranging from local sanctioned
affairs to Morris and Essex and the
Westminster Kennel Club show at
Madison Square Garden.
