He should be at least 18 months before doing a lot of jumping. I don't think it matters if he is neutered or not. I can't help you with locating a club as I am not familiar with your area, but perhaps someone else from BW who live near you can.

You can start training earlier. I thnk there are a few agility club in Maple Ridge and in the Fraser valley. Unfortunately I don't have any contact names. Try doing a search on the internet. Most are booked up early, so I would start looking now.

In the meantime, work on your obedience training. It will help with your agility training.

Hi there.
I couldn't help but notice that you're in BC too. I want to put my puppy in agility once she's old enough. She's just about 7 months right now. I haven't looked into any clubs around here yet, but I hope I can find something. In the meantime, Elsa and I are still working on obedience and all that jazz. Let me know what you find in terms of clubs etc.
