Join us for a relaxed day with our dogs at Frying Pan Park, we have rented a Pavilion covered area that will protect us from the sun (or rain, if that is the case!). We’ll begin the day with coffee and donuts and the chance to run your dog through a Rally Obedience course. Someone will be available to talk you through the obstacles if it is your first time.

Then we’ll try our hand at teaching our dogs some simple tricks. Many tricks are easy to teach and you’ll get simple, step by step instructions that you can use to continue training your dog at home.

Our meeting will include our annual elections.
