Take the opportunity while in the UK to attend the largest agility show in the world at the Kennel Club International Agility Festival 10th – 13th August at Rutland Showground just 50 minutes from the WAC venue.

If you have more time available, extend your stay and move on to the fabulous Dogs in Need Agility week at Trinity Park, Ipswich, Suffolk 15th – 19th August. (closing date usually mid June)

If you would be interested in competing at a Kennel Club show, all international dogs need to either have an ATC (Authority to compete) number — click here if the breed is recognised by the KC. If the breed is not recognised it may be registered on the Activities register click here.

If you think this is something you may be interested in doing we would suggest you start the process of getting the registration as soon as possible so it is in place for when the schedules are released.

If you need any more information or help drop us an email [email protected] and we will try and assist as best we can.
