Most small towns won't have dog shows. The ones listed on those sites are pretty much all you're getting.
I usually make a mini-vacation out of it and stay in a hotel for a night (or sleep in the car...) if I need to go farther to see what I want. If you want to learn how to show, look up an obedience club in MO and see if they have a conformation handling class. They'll probably let you go to class with Anna, and you can apply what you've learned on a show pup if/when you decide to get one. Most club websites will tell you when they have meetings and what classes they offer. You and Anna would have a blast! Most will even let your daughter come if she's old enough and she can learn how to handle too! Junior showmanship can be a lot of fun for little munchkins and some start as early as 6!
