      Join ABRT for a Showbedience Practice Show, a structured conformation practice designed to simulate a real ring environment in a supportive, training-focused setting.

      

      Handlers and dogs will practice standard conformation procedures, including identifying breed classes, ring etiquette, judge examination, handling skills, and common movement patterns. This is a learning environment where questions are welcome and repetition is encouraged.


      Each Practice Show session is limited in size to allow for quality ring time. Registration is required to guarantee a spot, and availability is limited.


      Keep calm — and dog show on! 👑

        Rally Obedience Skills Class


        Join us for a Rally Obedience skills class focused on building strong foundations, improving sign handling, and developing clear communication between dog and handler.


        Each week will focus on a different set of Rally skills, including position work, heelwork, navigational exercises, and AKC/UKC Rally signs.


        This class is appropriate for teams preparing for competition as well as those looking to strengthen fundamentals and communication in general. 


        Classes are drop-in style, allowing teams to attend the sessions that best fit their goals and schedules.
