Saving the tiger means saving ourselves...

The tiger is a beautiful animal. But that is not the only reason we should save it. It is time to realize that when you save the tiger, you save the forest and in turn secure your food and water security.

This is because to make sure tigers live, we have to make sure that deer, peafowl and all other animals that the tiger eats (its prey base) live. To make sure that these herbivores live, we must make sure that all the trees, grass and other plants that these prey animals need for food are protected. In this way, the whole forest gets saved! So the tiger becomes an indicator of the forest's health and saving the tiger means saving its entire forest kingdom with all the other animals in it.

By saving tiger forests, we protect the catchment areas of our rivers and recharge groundwater sources.

Now having decided tht u r going to show ur dog, the preparation has to start quite early in the life of the dog. Many times people have a 'healthy' dog, that may not confirm to the standard, but on the advice of frens and at times even the Vet they enter their dog on the spur of a moment in a show. Poor dog and the poor owner are at a loss inside the ring. The bewildered owner either loses his kool or makes the judge fume with his antics. And naturally his dog loses and the owner cribs abt partiality in the show. I have at times seen owners kick their dog once they lose. All this is a shame and shud never be done. So in order to understand the intricacy lets know wat the judge will ask u to make ur dog do! If u have a toy breed and even some small to medium sized breeds, the judge will ask u to place ur dog on a table. He will ask u to 'stack' ur dog. Meaning u make the dog stand on all fours in his natural stance. then the judge wud like to feel his bones right from shoulder blade to pelvis and also his fore and hind legs. Thereafter he wud like to see the mouth. Meaning thereby he wud like to see the 'bite' or simply how his upper and lower teeth look with jaws closed. Same procedure he wud follow for a large breed on but on the ground only. Thereafter he will ask u to either go 'up and down' the ring tht is start walking off with the dog in front of the judge in an imaginary straight line and come back along the same so tht he can see the action of the fore and hind limbs. Alternatively he may ask you to make a triangle. Always keep the dog on ur left and never come between the judge and the dog-he is interested in seeing only ur dog and not ur charms. He gets barely a min or 2 to make up his mind. For a large breed he will make u run and run and run around the ring to observe the gait more minutely. Mind u all the while the judge wud be mentally noting each and every detail of ur dog. U may be asked to wait on one side. At tht time dont start gossiping with frens outside and dont lose nerve either.

If u intend to be a showman, u must know that dog show is nothing but a sport. Thus dont grumble if u lose. Learn to be a sportsman. Dog shows in India earlier were an occasion to socialise, meet frens and their dogs and talk endlessley abt dogs. Many times the clubs used to arrange accomodation for outstation exhibitors and people used to talk all night abt their wins and losses and of course the dogs. But those days a dog was a pet and not a source of earning or a something to show off. Anyway bygones are bygones. If u want to be showman, first know the standards of the breed u are going to show. Then observe whether ur dog has all the points or not. Ask ur frens to do so, bec it is very difficult to find faults with ones own baby. Learn the language of the standards. For tht u must know the doggy terminology very well-know its morphology. U must know wat is a muzzle and wat a square muzzle means. U must know wat is an otter tail and wat does it look like. If u have a cocker spaniel (english) then u must know wat is meant by a Merry Cocker gait. U must know wat it means when the standard says a well angulated dog, wat are the hocks and set on of the tail, wat are flews and wat is a cat eye. Etc etc the terms are endless. Once u have learnt and understood the breed standard and satisfied urself tht ur dog is worth a trial, start training him for the show. As i said in the very beginning tht there r the breed and the obedience shows. Right now we r still talking of the breed shows only. The obedience show will be a separate chapter. Most dog owners presume tht a breed show means tht u go and stand in the ring with a well groomed dog and self and just let the judge do the rest of the things. It is not so. I will tackle tht in some detail. Grooming for the show itself is a big job for breeds like cocker spaniel, where hair need to be trimmed,or the poodles or the Afghan Hounds and Lhasa Apsos where 'Hair care' counts. We will know how to train ur dog for the show next time.
