Find a Seminar or Clinic
Getting the word out to people interested in dog sports!
Herding Clinics:
This area of the website is dedicated to Clubs hosting an upcoming competition SEMINAR and for the exhibitors who want to do better with their dog or get started the right way by learning from those with a LOT of experience. Add your event here to reach more exhibitors at NO CHARGE!
Each sport now has its own page since I am finding so many seminars out there!
Events are organized by date, then by the city/state they are in, if they fall on the same date.
What you will find here are IN PERSON seminars! Webinars are NOT listed here. If you think the information on this page is valuable, feel free to share!
