Julia Smith Webboard User Reg: 10-17-2003 Posts: 133 Loc: Offline	HI I am looking for ideas on types of competition obediance dogs out there. So far I can only think of Malinios, Shepherds, Pinschers and AB. I am looking for a long hair or plush coated dog that I could get into the sport of competion obediance with. Also another question, do you have to do bite work to compete in a Schutzhund club?

I don't think you should not consider a Retriever if they are a good option for you just because there are 6 on your street. That's so silly! What do you really want the dog for?

I would love to do Schutzhund, but living in the city and being inexperience at it I dont' feel that I should have a dog and teach it bite work. My neighbors would have a cow.
