Dogs wanted for Judging training course

[dave]

For those that don't know I'm doing an agility judging course in a couple of weeks as I've moaned enough about dodgy decisions.
Anyway the organisers have put out a request for dogs and handlers to help with the training on Sunday 25th March. It's at Southam DTC which is in the Midlands, about 50 - 60 miles from Thame. There will be 2 sessions, one in the morning and one in the afternoon and dogs should be capable of running 10 - 12 obstacles or be competing already. If you want to do all day, then they'll include you for lunch too! Let me know if you're interested, and I'll let you know more. As I'll be driving I'm more than happy to give you a lift if you don't mind staying for the day.
Thanks!

[dave]

Thanks Lorraine (and Mutley . If you let me know which session you want to do I'll pass your details onto the organiser. It's no problem for me to give you a lift if you want all day!

Oh! I would love to have done but sadly will be away on holiday!!!

[lorraine]

Thanks for the offer of lift, but i will drive, Do you know what times the session are? I might do all day if not too late finishing, as mut needs some practice and Waring out!!

Hello Dave,

Nothing planned for next weekend so will be more than happy to go along with poppy for the whole day if the offer of a lift is still open

[dave]

Hi Everyone. Many thanks for your offers of help - I really appreciate it! I emailed the organisers yesterday to let them know, and to check on timings etc for everybody so as soon as I hear anything I'll let you know. I'm not in the UK at the moment, so not training but will post any updates on the forum.

If you need to get hold of me, send me a pm here.

Thanks again

Nice life for some who can go jet setting around the world ;D

[dave]

I wish It's cold and wet here It's not a glamorous lifestyle. Honest

Dave, I originally said that Fudge and I cld do both AM and PM but have to be back home PM but would love to do AM if that's ok.

Just heard from the organisers that dogs are needed for the afternoon session from 2pm. It should finish around 4:30 to 5pm. For anyone going in the morning they've told me there's a lovely walk you can do with your dogs, and it's very hard to get lost.

As it's the afternoon, I think that's Karen & Harvey, Lorraine and Mutley and Tamar and Poppy. I'll put the venue details on here tomorrow morning, when I can get into my work computer.

I'm not taking any dogs so anyone wanting a lift can enjoy a peaceful, sheltie free experience . Let me know!

Thanks again - I really appreciate your support.
