If she is something you are proud that you bred and you believe she is competitive, then show her in Bred By. 8 months is not too young. As soon as a show is closer than 100 miles I will be showing Jack--in Bred By. It is the only class he will ever be in until he finishes. However, if I felt he were not competitive yet, I wouldn't show him at all.
