I also laugh when people say that their dog won't sit because they show in conformation.

First, I have to lol at that statement I had a very DA/human submissive male who would get fired up in the ring and if I tried the least bit to calm him down he would sit and not get up because he thought I was mad at him

To the op, everyone is right on, the start to a good wp dog is obedience. It doesn't take the dog very long to learn the difference between a leash and a harness. The only problem I have with heel is on the way to load up in the van for a show, they get way to excited about pulling.
