Does anyone know how old a child has to be to handle a dog in the ring during a champion show in QLD.

10 Years old

Thanks for that Pointers Rule, is this including ag shows, are they strict about the child being 10.

[ShesaLikeableBiBear]

The Ag. shows are Ch. shows so yes, 10.

e.g. from the March edition of Dogworld. Blackbutt Agricultural Show Society. Championship Show.

10 yrs and yes, they are strict about it.

The thread is talking about handling in normal breed classes in Qld.

In Qld you can't start handling until you are 10 and yes, they are strict about it. CCC claim it's to do with insurance (so why can't they change and use the same insurance provider as other states? )
