Thanks borzoimom. Growing up as she did in our "doggie" family she completely understands the time, effort, dedication and consistency required to train a dog for any sport. She's like her grandma, when she does something she puts her whole heart and soul into it.

It's my guess that the hardest part will be finding the right dog from the right breeder and then finding a great (not just good) trainer. They are willing to travel in order to research and learn too. I'll be sending her any information I can come up with but they're more the "hands on" types rather than sitting on their behinds and relying on what they might read on the internet.

My main concern is finding an ethical breeder and trainer as she tends to be a little too trusting sometimes.
