Hi Kristen!
Maybe I can help you?
I'm from Finland and in my own country I was very active dogperson. I use to held puppytraining, show training, rally-o etc. and I organized youth activities for Finnish Kennel Club in my own area.
I do it for free, so don't worry about the costs. I just miss dogs and being with them.
I live in Canberra.
