My Dog Can Do That!
IT’S BACK!! The 35th Annual Reliant Park World Series of Dog Shows, July 18-22, 2012, is excited to bring back the My Dog Can Do That! events inviting all dogs of different breeds and mixes to test their skills in agility courses. With the help of professional trainers, your dog will run a condensed version of the agility courses seen throughout the five days of dog shows. The My Dog Can Do That! events will occur on Saturday, July 21 and Sunday, July 22, ONLY. Times will be announced closer to show dates. The events are free and open to all dogs as long as they are 6 months old and on a regular 4-to-6 foot leash. No prior registration needed; however, in order to maintain a healthy and safe environment at the dog show, proof of rabies vaccination is required.
As an added bonus to participating in the My Dog Can Do That! events, the American Kennel Club will offer participants a discounted registration in its AKC Canine Partners℠ program. The program is for ALL dogs, including mixed-breeds, and allows them to list with AKC and compete in many events, including agility. With the AKC Canine Partners listing, you also receive other perks including a lifetime enrollment in AKC CAR Pet Recovery Service and a complimentary 60-Day Trial AKC Pet Healthcare Plan. For more information on the AKC Canine Partners program, visit http://www.akc.org/mixedbreeds/ or check out the flier below.

Do the applicants need to be spayed or neutered to enter the agility course???
No they do not. We only require proof of rabies vaccination.
I love to bring my dogs to join, can one handler bring 2 dogs? also what’s the course like (what do they have to do?) Where do we go to register at the dog show?
You are more than welcome to bring 2 dogs to participate in the My Dog Can Do That! event but we suggest you have someone there to handle/hold one dog while you are doing the agility course with the other. The course is a condensed version of the competition agility course, we will not know they exact set up until the show. Registration will be at the show prior to running the course. See you there!
I would love to bring Bosco, my rescued dog as he is very smart and loves to work and play.
We saw the segment about the Dog Show at Reliant , this morning on Deborah Duncan Great Day Houston.
My dog Max, a mixed breed, male, is the smartest four paw'd dude that I have ever adopted.
I can't keep him out of the poo. It's an above ground pool with a pet ramp to get out safely. He lovesrunning and retrieving his toys.
Where do I find a place in Houston (Galleria area) for Max to train and compete in the agility and obstalce course events? He is EXTREMELY Competive~!!!!!!!!!!!
Will the Dog show have a place to evalute his talents and particijpate?
We ready and willing!!
Max and mommy
We suggest bringing Max to try the My Dog Can DO That! Event and then you can register him for the AKC Canine Parnters program which will allows Max to compete in agility, rally and obedience competitions. Also, the link below is a list of Houston-area training facilities that you may be interested in. Hope this helps and hope to see you at the dog show!
