Thank you both Judy and Peggy for answers, it is sad - as I am a fairly recent newcomer (3 years) to cavaliers and I am an owner/handler and am new to the world of showing as well - I am one of us who has integrity and show my gorgeous Berkeley - Ch Shenandoah Danzig (Ch Elvenhome Keep Going x Shenandoah Georgie Girl) in his natural and true form. I had no clue what people do/did to dogs until I observe what I do at all breed and at speciality club shows - it is truly amazing and an eye opener for me!
