I didn't hear about it until a lady in my agility class told me, because her husband is the secretary of the local UKC/HR club. Shelley never saw a duck until she was almost 3.

Give the club people a call! I have found that everyone in our club is just great. Here's a picture from one of our training sessions just over a year ago, as the Shellster and I were just getting started (you can see that I didn't own a heeling stick or even anything in camo except a silly hat. The training collar was borrowed on the spot from the nice blond lady with the black Lab.)

We figure Max is probably about 5 now. We've had him since May of 2002. I can't believe that it has been that long! This looks like a great activity.

I'm going to suggest that my son look up one of these clubs for his Brittany who is only about 3. He lives in Kansas, and I'm sure that there are clubs around there.

Oooops! Quick thought -- would they take a Brittany? It's a pretty sharp dog, bred from hunting stock.
