Run Orders for Open, Nursery, and ProNovice
For the OPEN Trial, we are extending it a day due to demand. We are going to start on Friday, run 50 dogs, then on Saturday, run 25 dogs in the morning for the first trial. At noon Saturday, we will start the second trial and run 25 dogs and then finish up on Sunday with 50 dogs.
We are having a clinic with Angie Coker on Tuesday, Feb 20. It is limited to 8 dogs, so lots of personal attention. Contact Bill if you are interested in attending at 530-662-4507. The cost is $100 a dog, $25 for an auditor without a dog.
