Now this is a good question for Dixieland Dancer, she shows
her dogs in conformation, and their are others on the list
that compete in obedience etc. They are the experts.

I edited my post, when I saw you are not interested in conformation,
but you still might want to consider joining a local breed club in your area.
Check the AKC web site for your official
breed club etc.
I love watching dogs compete in obediece etc.
Your puppy is adorable.
