The dog must be 15 months for the BH and 16 months for the AD (but I don't like a pup that young running 12.5 miles, or all the miles it takes to conditioning them to that point....), so I guess that would be the age order.
But realistically the pup will be training for the BH from a pretty young age and will likely be doing tracking and beginning bite work. Since the dog must have a BH to go for the SCHI they should be the first and second goals (and all the OB will also be in the SCHI, so you are training for both anyway...). While training for these, the dog can begin endurance training and go for the AD if one is offered nearby (and it is timed to be fairly cool... Hate running an AD in the dead of summer!!!)
While training for the SCHI, if the dog shows an aptitude for tracking, you can also do more with that and go for an FH.
The AD is needed only of you plan on Koer Klassing the dog (Breed Survey).
The BH is a pre-req for any Schutzhund title including the AD.
One of our club members did Pauli's FH before his SchH1.
It's not uncommon for someone to do a BH on Saturday and then a SchH1 on Sunday. However, that's the only time you are allowed to do two titles on one dog at a trial.
FWIW, they are messing with the rules again. A Schutzhund title is now an IPO title.
