Dog shows and other events are a competition and exhibitors may be busy grooming or training before judging commences. Be sure to kindly say hello and to wait until after judging is completed before engaging more with exhibitors as they will be busy focusing on the event. Once completed most exhibitors will be happy to talk to you about their breed and share valuable time meeting their dogs.
