If you go to Jack Onofrio Dog Shows, LLC most of our local shows are listed with this superindenent. Or you could go to American Kennel Club - akc.org and check their link for events. That is also a great place to check for shows. As far as training to be a handler "for yorkies" you need to get to know some of the handlers that show in our area and see if you can be their assistant. Some have a mentor/training program - and they will teach you. If you come to the shows and talk with them, get to know them, you can ask them. Just be sure if you are interested in yorkies - you are mentored up with a yorkie handler. There is a world of diffenence to handling a yorkie, due to grooming.
