Showing in obedience?

[Flatcoatluver]

have you looked on akc website they might have places around for agility that can teach jack

[k9krazee]

The only agility I would do with Jack is CPE or NADAC...even though there are fewer and fewer NADAC trials now . Hes not a purebred so we can't do AKC. I am starting classes next summer, my Aunt teaches it but she lives about an hour and a half from me, I really want to do obedience this winter and Jack isn't old enough for agility yet (only 9 months).

I know he couldn't do akc but they might have trainers in your area online

i just got a cocker puppy and i am thinking about doing obedience with him when hes older, and then possibly do agility!

I say go for it! I bet Kaige will do great.

I've competed in obedience with the shelties... both of them have their novice titles in CKC obedience. I really really enjoyed competing it was a lot of fun. I need to stop being so lazy and get back to work on getting them their CDX. I'd also like to come down to the states and get their AKC novice title.

I say you should go for it. A CD is a fairly easy title to get. Especially for a herding breed. As long as you and he are both enjoying the training then I don't see any reason to not go for it.

Good luck with whatever you decide.

Actually you can also compete in USDAA or AAC trials, though for AAC trials you have to be willing to drive up to Canada as they are a Canadian organization. For NADAC, AAC, and USDAA the dog has to be at least 18 months old.
