Thanks everyone! They hold handling classes every Tuesday and Wednesday night at the Orlando Fairgrounds so I plan to try to attend at least one of those weekly with him. I took Bruiser to handling and obiedience classes when he was a pup and I have been helping with one of my friends English Cocker pups(I actually showed him last weekend did pretty good for both of our first times haha) I have been reading and talking to handlers for all the tips I can get. I am trying to learn as much as I can before I get him so it will be easier for me to train him correctly. My breeder is in Ohio but she has several of her dogs that she co owns down here in Florida and I met one lady that has a few of her dogs and is getting Polo's brother too so she will be helping me out with showing. Also I plan on showing him myself unless he turns out to be really really nice dog I might have a professional take him to some shows(I have been told shows tend to be political and judges will pick professional handlers for the win over owner handlers)

But basically I posted this thread to see everyone suggestions on things I needed to buy for showing, as I have nothing. Like should I buy clippers? Also what brushes do you use for boxers and what is the best nail dremal to get. Just seeing if anyone else of here shows boxers and if they had any good tips for me!

Also I will be getting most pictures this weekend hopefully! There first stacked photos at 5 weeks! I will def be posting them

Thanks =]
