To compete in the regular portion of a conformation match (dog show) your age doesn't matter, and neither does the age of the dog. However, to take part in Juniors (which is where the handler is judged vs. the dog being judged as in regular competition) it varies based on the kennel club. CKC, UKC, and AKC all have their own rules. Generally though, I believe the average accepted age is 6 to 18. If you visit the websites for each of the clubs, they do have details and rules posted for Junior Handling.
