Ok, my dog is a rat terrier and he is having such a good time doing agility, so I would like to start entering him in competitions. I would like to know the requierments to be in one and the rules and faults and all that stuff, no website I could find gave me what I was looking for.
Thank you.

I have a six week old, male, Australian Shepard, that is both deaf and blind. I can find advise for training pertaining to only one affliction or the other. I need to contend with both. Luke is energetic, loving and appears to be very bright. I would like to train without confusing or frustrating him. Thanks for any assistance.

The ones I found so far want to sell you books and CDs on the subject with no clue on some basic instructions. I plan to buy a book but want to first just get an idea if it will work with my dog. I have a clicker but just need a few free instructions on how to start. Maybe someone out there could give me some pointers on the basics of clicker training.

hmmm.. In the UK I am not sure there is any ‘certified’ Koehler trainers like there is in US, but if you ring arround trainers and enquire they should tell you their method and maybe direct you to a trainer who does use it, I know there is an ex police dog handler in the North East who is now a dog trainer and I am pretty sure he uses the Koehler method or something similar, his details can be found in the Yellow Pages so look in there also.
