And also, which skills/stats she should have trained for that event. Thanks!

Maybe Working events? Like search and rescue, assistance trials, obedience. Things along those lines. With skills I'd probably go with: Disc: 100 Sport: 80 Work: 100

Thanks! That's what I was thinking.

I agree with workin events but id angle him more towards hunting, search and rescue or that kinda stuff due to it being a hound. Edit: Also this post is helpful in determining how to train for specific events. <a href="http://virtualpups.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=45511"; target="_blank" class="bb-url">viewtopic.php?f=16&t=45511</a>

Thank, Vamp, I always look at it but I like a second opinion/further help. (: For hunting it says Discipline: 15%, Work: 15%, and Sport: 20%... Would 100: Disc, 100: Sport, 80: Work be fine? I'm always afraid I'll limit a dog's abilities by incorrect training.

Id do Disc 100 Sport 100 Work 80 personally. Basically the sport is 20% of the dogs total and if it is at 80 then youve lost some room where you couldve been improving his score. However thats a personal opinion on how i would do it
