Iguanadon Posted October 2, 2017 Report Posted October 2, 2017 (edited) I have an event coming up the weekend after next, first time doing it... a dog show, here in my county. It's something like the 72nd annual event and I had no idea what to expect... Well, I just saw the "ring assignments"... It appears that there are about 560 dogs entering twice (both Saturday and then Sunday). And the list of about 112 different breeds participating is mind boggling. I take 63 breeds of dog puzzles with me normally and I'm going to have to expand that to try to cover as many as I can. There are several listed that I don't have patterns for, and some I've never even heard of. LOL This is going to be a wild one... http://www.hanoverkennelclub.net/2017_show_schedule_and_ring_assignments Edited October 2, 2017 by Iguanadon lawson56, Falcon, Lucky2 and 2 others 5 Quote
orangeman Posted October 2, 2017 Report Posted October 2, 2017 Iggy, I think you will hit the jackpot!!!!!!!! Several years ago someone wanted to know if I would wholesale my dog puzzles so he could take them to a dog show. I probably had 6 dogs at the time - fewer now. I see it now. Iggy on the dog show circuit!!! Nationwide! Madison Square Garden on Thanksgiving Day (after the Macy's parade) Good luck!!! bb Quote
Scrappile Posted October 2, 2017 Report Posted October 2, 2017 I'd think this would be a great venue. I know you will do well. Get out your order pad for the ones you don't have puzzles for. Quote

One of our favorite flicks. I could see myself traveling the circuit. LOL! Quote
bandaideman Posted October 3, 2017 Report Posted October 3, 2017 If anyone is up to the task it would be you. It may be hard to get some of the dogs looking just right but you can just tell the customer the mother liked to run around at night Iguanadon 1 Quote

I know there is one in Nashville that is a big deal. Quote
Woodmaster1 Posted October 3, 2017 Report Posted October 3, 2017 Sounds like it is going to be a great chance to sell dog puzzles. Take orders for designs you don't have and get your designer busy. Quote
lawson56 Posted October 3, 2017 Report Posted October 3, 2017 Get out you Superman Cape. And you will do just fine. Quote

Sam777 Posted October 4, 2017 Report Posted October 4, 2017 Good luck Iggy. No one better than you for this show Go at it with full force. When opportunities like this come up, you give it all your effort. Then you can take easy for a while after that. Sam Quote
