Default Agility trials/competitions??

I don't know the correct word for it. But anyways, one of the things I plan on doing when I get another GSD, or another dog is Agility. It looks like so much fun! I am still considering putting Molly in it.

But I am wondering if there is a website where it lists upcoming agility trials and competitions in your area? I might like to go to one and check it out. Do these things also have Obedience and Rally trials too? Those are a few things I plan on getting into as well. I am wondering this because they have one for Aussies and was wondering if they had one for GSDs too.

Any information is appriciated!

Check out your local obedience training club- ours has lots of classes and practice times on the weekend open to anyone interested. You can look at our webpage and see what we offer and maybe you can find one in your area. Ours is tylerotc.org. It's the Tyler Obedience Training Club

You can go to AgilityEvents.net - Events to search for events in your state.

I found a few places for training. Thanks for the sites. No breed specific ones? Doesn't matter, just curious.

The only GSD specific agility trial I know of is GSD nationals, which is only once a year.

I don't know of any breed specific agility classes. Even with the tons of Border Collies in the sport there's always a mix of dogs in any classes I've ever attended.

Clean Run: Search for Agility Clubs and Schools

That link has a ton of clubs and classes
