Maybe if your question was more specific you'd get some responses. I think people just aren't sure what you're asking for.

Are you looking for places you can take him for exercise and play, like parks or beaches, or an actual sport like Schutzhund, or agility, or flyball? Dock diving? Tracking?

There are all sorts of things you can do with your dog. Do some research about the various options and see what interests you, and then start looking around for places you can do them. For Schutzhund you'll want to find a club to train with, for agility, you'll want to take classes. In any case, some basic obedience classes are a good place to start if you haven't taken any already.

Putting your (general) location in your profile will help because it will show up in all your posts, making it easier for people to recommend trainers/clubs/classes near you.

sorry about that. i am actually trying to get into some sort of sport, since i live in nyc there arent a lot of options. i have already researched schutzhund in nyc, but the closest one is in long island. i guess what i am trying to say is what kind of activity/sport is there to do in an urban enviornment

You can do pretty much anything you want, but you may have to drive a ways to get there.
