About this product

Product Information

David Turner was a general practitioner who acquired a part-time sheep flock as a means of controlling a grass paddock. He quickly realized that good presentation was a key to selling Southdowns. So, several years later, after he had progressed to earn the distinction of First at the Royal Show, he decided to pass on his findings while the early trials and tribulations were still fresh in his mind. Here, for novices (and for the interest of more experienced exhibitors) is a nucleus of information on which to build, covering; how to start; housing; feeding; grading and finishing; the beauty parlour; trimming; halter training; preparation of specific sheep breeds; advanced showing; kit and caboodle; in the ring; breeding; and coming home.
