Oops, forgot some brags...and We're on Facebook too

My apologies to a few students who's brags I missed here! At the Timmonium show in April: Congratulations to Judy and "Ch. Tucker TT" who completed their Rally Novice title, Congratulations to Luanne and Edison (Ch.?) who also completed their Rally Novice title, and to Deb and "Ch. Astra" on their two legs (RN). Reports from the breed ring that weekend require a congratulations to Karen and Beau (PBGV) on going winners, and Deb w/her young Rottie on getting WB/BOS, and to Sherri and Diva with their WB win as well!

I missed these brags here on the blog, but I did post them on the Dog Sense facebook page. Which brings me up to another announcement I missed here on the blog! We are now on Facebook! I'm very much a facebook novice, so forgive me but I'm not sure how to tell you to find us. I'll put a link here to see if it works!





If not, go to Facebook and search for Dog Sense: Dog training, sports, and learning center

Watch for changes to the Beyond Basics website www.dogsensewithwendy.webs.com in the next week or so as I announce new classes, new schedules, and more!

Congratulations to Joanne and Miija on their recent success in the freestyle dance competition. They won 1st place in both their divisions!

Congratulations to Lois and Teak on completing their Rally Novice title, to Erin and Blitz on gaining a leg in Rally Advanced at the Newfoundland Nationals. Also congratulations to Pat And Coach on passing the A.T.T.s evaluation (American Temperament Test) for his TT. Fire also gained his TT certificate, and I just have to brag...Fire was the only dog who was visited by all three judges after the evaluation! Thanks to my Thursday night class for pointing that Fun fact out! ;-)

As the week goes on, good luck to Deb, Pat, Holly, and Bob as they and their dogs compete in other events at the Colonial Rottweiler Clubs Regional Specialty! Also to Shay, Carol and anyone else heading to the Lancaster Kennel Clubs show this Sunday!

There will be a few adjustments made to the training schedule for upcoming classes! The first one includes a new scheduled Handling Class beginning next Thursday May 20th. This will be a four week scheduled handling class where handling skills and training the dog are the focus. Watch the website over the next week for more changes and additions.
