Mideastern Region - Training Weekend - All Welcome! - Page 2

Ruger,

Contact the club to verify if it is OK to bring the puppy - that is the correct thing to do.  Jim et all will answer back promptly.

This is a great club and great members that are skilled at all levels and supportive.

This is great that Mid-Ohio is hosting this event!  Great idea.

                         Shelley....Prince has just turned 8 months old....he does not mind socializing with other dogs, just strangers...:(    ......thanks for the post. I think Sam said it best.." I have way more to learn than Prince"......

Better still. Have fun.

 Hi All:

Thanks for all the kind words about the club.  

Puppies are more than welcome.  We'll do our best to have "puppy" time and there should be tons of socialization opportunity.  I'll try to have bikes and "BH" stuff around so that if appropriate for your dog/puppy, you can use as a resource.

Let me know if there are any other issues/questions/concerns.

Bump...

who is giving the seminars?  will there only be a helper seminar or one for training too?

I didn't take it as a seminar type event. More of a fun atmosphere to emulate a bigger event and bring people from the region together.

Hi All:

Sam's got it right.  There is a helper seminar for anyone learning helper work or wanting classification. 

We'll have a variety of helpers for protection and folks who've competed nationally/internationally/regionally/etc.  Discussion is welcome and encouraged, but there won't be a specific person discussing/training specific exercises.  The international competitors have aggreeed to do a short question/answer session to discuss their preparation for the upcoming world events.

Great questions . . . keep em coming. 

FYI . . . I've received about 45 responses from attendees . . . looking to be a fun, well-attended weekend.  ALL ARE WELCOME!!!!
