Is my 3 year old Shepherd too old to start training in search and rescue?
Full Question:
I have a 3 year old Shepherd. Is he to old to train in search and rescue? I have a trainer willing to train, but is it really worth it? He is a great dog, but I'm not sure if he's to old. 
Cindy's Answer:
If a dog has the proper temperament and drives for the work, 3 isn’t too old. It’s better to start young but dogs can learn new skills for their lifetime.
