Each dog has to win their breed to move on to compete for best in group within one of 7 breed groups. These groups are; Working, Herding, Terrier, Hound, Sporting, Non-Sporting or Toy Group to compete for Best in Show.

Diane Rich I have been training dogs and their people for over 20 years. I work with pups from 7 weeks old to senior plus dogs and offer basic obedience to advanced off leash training both privately and group classes. Other services include behavior consultations to help both ends of the leash with everything from aggression, puppy/dog manners and public manners to separation anxiety. As a "real world" dog trainer, I take training out of the classroom or home when both the pet and family are ready, and take training to the street. I also offer pet therapy training classes preparing both the handler and dog for their therapy test and future service as a therapy team and coordinate several pet therapy programs in the Seattle area. My complete bio, description of services, class dates and on line class registration is listed on my website at www.spokesdog.com.
