Please clarify?
When I am entering an all-breed show (scenario - I have the following entries (all same breed): one each of a puppy bitch, a puppy dog, a 1-1.5 mo. old bitch, a 1-1.5 mo. old dog, an adult bitch, a adult dog, a CH adult bitch and a GCH adult dog. I want to handle as many of these as I can in accordance with the rules and choose pro handlers for the rest. I know that if a pro handler is not available, their name will not appear on the list, so it is easy to choose another. But how many of these classes can I enter as Owner Handler without risking disqualification? Does the game warn me that I can't handle , say a puppy bitch *and* a puppy dog in the same show *before* the show?
Thank you.

As far as I know, in this game, there is no dismissal from the ring for having *too many* entries.

These are the only grounds for dismissal: https://www.showdog.com/help/topic.aspx?id=87

Additionally, unless a judge specifies " Actually prefers to see the owner of the dog handling it" in their bio, you should be using a handler, unless you are entering a no handler specialty show.

Lastly, you can enter as many dogs in a show with as many handlers but you will pay:

I hope I answered your questions. If not, let us know.
