Field Training Days
I am trying to organize regular field training days. I want to
encourage people who have never done field training before to
come and try it out! I would also love to see our members who
have field titles come out for practice, its great to have a
visual example of what we are working towards. Keep checking
the events page for updates on the field training days. Katy
knows of some land near Gainesville that can be used on Saturdays,
Claire Koshar has offered her property which is west of Orlando
on some Sundays, and we are looking for more locations. If you
know of any potential training sites please contact Alison at
aschultz@southernskiesfcrc.org

Retrieve/Scent Article Seminar
Sunday Nov. 28.at Best
Paw Forward www.bestpaw.com
407-328-0550, 407-327-1920
Retrieve Seminar 9 a.m. Starting your dog’s retrieving
work should be fun for you both. Even if you want to go on to
a compulsive retrieve eventually, you and your dog will benefit
from starting with a gentle play retrieve. And many dogs of various
breeds, including those with advanced obedience titles, never
need to be forced with clicker work and shaping.
Scent Article Seminar 12:00 noon: Absolute Day 1 Beginners
through Advanced Levels. Fun, fast scentwork focusing on competition
obedience scent articles, but you are welcome to use any safe
article you choose. Beginners sometimes enjoy starting with alphabet
blocks, for instance, so they can teach dogs to “spell their
names.” Be as creative as you like.
$35 for both workshops if registration received by Nov. 13,
$45 for both workshops on day of seminars
Single session $25 to register at door; $20 in advance
UKC Hunt Test
December 4-5 Montverde,
FL Central Florida Hunting Retriever Club UKC Hunt test and Upland
Hunt http://www.cfhrc.net/
. There will also be a "Puppy" Fun Test at 12:00 noon
on Saturday. There are no set rules for "puppy", inexperienced
adult dogs can enter too! Usually, they will throw a wing or
a pigeon, a couple of times on land and a couple of times in
the edge of the water. It all depends on the dog, the age and
experience. It's fun and the dogs enjoy it. You don't even need
to fill out an entry form.. Just send Marilyn Dumas mdumas@mfi.net
your name, dogs name, and age. This will give CFHRC an idea how
many are entered, so they can allow enough time.
Even if you decide not to enter, come on out to watch and cheer
on the others. There are 3 levels- Started, Seasoned and Finished.
This hunt test also has the bonus of an Upland Hunt (flushing
and retrieving birds).
