If there are any dog training facilities or breed clubs in your area, they should be able to point you in the right direction.
The Kennel Club site lists some of the Shows, the Exhibiting link has lists of Shows, Championship shows and Schedules.
There are other websites, mostly breed sites, that list these and other shows. |
You will find it is different on this side of the water we can compete in breed classes and if you are lucky enough to go Best of Breed can compete in the group even though it is a puppy - I should know have won Best in Show with a pup on a few occasions.
Ours become a junior at 12 months and over here we can compete for the challenge certificates from 6 months old BUT have to attain one after 12 months of age before they can claim the 3 cc and championship status.
