If you are looking to compete with your Beagle in a dog show then you will need to decide if you will be competing on a local, national, or international level. If you’re not sure, talk with your veterinarian Manalapan, NJ as he may be able to assist you in your decision. If you’re not familiar with the world of dog showing then local shows will most likely give you the start you need. If you are looking to compete in American Kennel Club (AKC) shows then you will need to follow their process to begin. The AKC suggests attending at least one dog show before signing up to compete. Your Beagle will also need to be registered with the AKC club and be at least 6 months or older on the day of the show. Note that spayed or neutered dogs are not eligible to compete in confirmation classes. Visit this website for more details.
