n this episode, Martina speaks with Anna Herzog about FCI obedience and why it’s growing in the UK.

They discuss:

• What FCI (Fédération Cynologique Internationale) is

• How FCI obedience differs from KC obedience

• Why the sport suits more than just Border Collies

• The balance between motivation, precision and handling

• Why you compete against the round, not just other handlers

• How beginner-friendly UK intro classes are being developed

They also talk about training practicality, minimal equipment, and the long-term goal of building a UK team for the FCI World Championships.

If you’ve ever loved obedience but wanted more variety and movement, this episode is for you.
