How about emailing some of the BC contacts on the WAC site? Some of our top agility dogs were bred in BC/WA state.

I'm in Victoria and my neighbour is very active in the agility/flyball circle. She competes in Vancouver as well so if you haven't found anything I can ask her for some info for you.

Oh Goody, please do. I emailed the Weim contact in BC and I have heard nothing back.

Here are a few links to sites that I got from her. I'm not sure where abouts in Vancouver you live so some might be too far for you. Hope it helps. Good luck!

Thanks so much Goody, I will follow up with all those leads.

What is Cooper doing? Looking in a log! if you go to our gallery, you can see the progression, of him finding the hole in the log, me asking him what is in there, him sticking his head in the hold - he is quite the character.

if you go to http://www.aac.ca/EN/Events/Main/Club_List.aspx there is a list of clubs in BC

I live just outside of Vancouver so if you need any help feel free to comtact me. There are a few Weims trialing in this area, it would be nice to have a new face.
