In NAKC you are allowed to show them at 3 months. They only earn ribbons if they place. They do not earn any points towards championships until 6 months old.
IABCA is a european type of show. Your dog is judged against the standard and then against other dogs. Each judge critiques your dog...you earn orange cards for the highest rating. 3 cards earns you a national 4 cards an international. you can earn national and international titles beginning at 3 months. So your pup could earn those at 3 months and again as a junior puppy. You don't progress beyond those until the puppy is older.
Dee can help you with the ARBA shows. She has two grand champions...(may have that title wrong) with ARBA.
