Please don`t include any identifying faces of handler,as gorgeous as you owners are, its your dogs we want to see

You may need a friend or family member to take the pic for you [ unless free standing ] or you can have someone else stand the dog while you take the pic, so long as the photographer is not a professional as per the general rules of entry here

Virtual Companion Show FAQ

Don`t worry if your dog does`nt stand `just so`, the main thing is to enter a nice clear side-on pic of the dog standing up and it does`nt matter if its indoors or outside, but preferably not on a formal `showing table`

As there is a very uneven split between number of breeds by size, the entry threads [ which you can see by clicking on the thread names below ], will be as follows :

The Boys

The Girls

You can enter as many of your dogs as are eligible for the class, but only one photo per dog.

Scorpio


Please put the name of the class as the title on your pm and the gender of the dog

The Judge will shortlist three from each gender
