Thanks for the encouragement. Keep at it with Bryco. You'll definately want to add the rubber matting since you're wanting to show him. Make him stay on the floor and walk on it. Oh, and put some duct tape across it in a couple places so he doesn't become a tape jumper.
Important note for show dogs - no clothes to "keep warm". They will regulate their own body temperature. They can't wear clothes in the ring and if they get used to clothing to regulate their body temp, then when they go in the ring "naked", they are shakey, shivery little pitiful things. Not the image you want to give the judge.
