Guess it will need allot more water and im questiong myself whether both dogs will have the same air.
Im in dubiety because training outside can cause more problems with the neighbors for me. But the dog's come first.
Thanks!

Actually, you should train the dog in an environment which (as closely as possible) mimics the environment of where the match will be happening

This is one of the things I learned from Hardcore Kennels, who lost with Doogie by failing to do this. He was training Doogie in a hot, humid Florida climate ... and matched his lean, strapping dog in a cold Michigan climate ... and Doogie was ill-prepared for this drastic difference.

I also remember Pinky & the Brain saying, when he traveled from a cold climate to a humid one, that he would increase the temperature of the room his dog trained in, and would even run boiling water to create steam (to mimic the humidity), again trying to approximate as closely as possible the climate his dog would actually be competing in.

Hope this helps,
