8:00 a.m.:  Tracking 

Tracking is best done in the mornings when the air is cool.

Following tracking, we will begin Temperament Testing and Bitework with trainer Yohanny Gomez.  Please be sure you have a strong, tightly fitting, flat buckle collar of leather or heavy nylon of at least one inch wide and a good leash to participate in the temperament test.  A working harness is acceptable.  Limited equipment will be available for purchase or borrowing.  It is best to have equipment that fits your dog.

********************************************************

Note:  The schedule is subject to change accommodating the weather but we will play even if it is in the rain!  Children are welcome but please remember there will be many people and dogs on the grounds and children MUST be supervised by parents or be crated.  We will not provide babysitting.  Dogs must be leashed or crated at all times.  Uncontrolled dogs or children will be asked to leave for the safety of all concerned.

Thank you for participating and we hope you have a great time!!!!
