Ive been enquiring locally about both these, we have a local ringcraft group which have said Smoo can go as soon as he's clear with his vac's but Im struggling to find any obedience!!
Should I be doing one before the other or can both be done?
Have you tried the KC website for details on the scheme they run to see if they have any trainers near you.
Each person will have a different view on it, i've always done the 2 side by side and they have different leads for each one. Also in obedience they know I show so don't ask me to do too many sits. Its a case of the dog being still so normally I use the stand or down command.
