Dog Agility

[Tarnie]

Am moving to france very soon, brittany/normandy border. Can anyone tell me if they know of any agility in the area either training clubs or shows that have taken place?

Had to ask Corrine, but what kind of dog is that in your picture?  Is it an Akita?

Brittany is where most on the Border Collie breeders are in France so you will probably find mor Border Collies in that region (and hence possibly a greater interest in agility).

http://www.france-agility.com/ will take you to directly to the agility page of the cnea website.  It has lots on info on rules, clubs, competitions etc.

Also, a list of all events for 2005 (for all France) can be found at http://www.chiensderace.com/cgi-bin/liste_manifs.pl (where you can filter by date and event type). If you want to enter any of these I would imaging you would need to join a French dog club. For agility you would need to get a French agility licence (through your French dog club). Don’t know if this is mandatory but would probably make life somewhat easier.

My sister has a dog handler by that name: Are you that person? My sister is in the hospital, and I am trying to contact her friends.
