Question
In Shutzhund testing, what is required to abtain the Shutzhund 1 test.  How hard or might I say what is the per cent to pass on the bite work.  What is required of the dog to get his first title and what is the AD title also.  How about the SG points and BH?  I need to know if I should send my dog to Germany or try a Wanna be U.S. Trainer?  Please advise.

Answer
Hi Jennifer,  Actually there are a lot of good US trainers in Schutzhund.  When checking out a trainer find out if they currently compete and if so, how many dogs have they titled.  Also, what kind of dogs have they titled.   

This is an ideal site for schutzhund information.  It will answer every question you have as well as put you in contact with trainers.   http://finographics.com/schutzhund/  

Hope this helps,
