Message from Frank: I have decided it's time to retire from teaching obedience training, effective December 1st. Thanks to the many people and dogs that have trained with me over the 30 plus years our school has operated. I am truly grateful for that experience. Nancy and I want to move on with our lives at a more leisurely pace. The Center will continue to offer boarding and ring rental and I hope a training program offered by others will be hosted here in the future. Best wishes to all.

Our dogs are so devoted. Those of you who work with your dog on something know how they watch you for information. Rio is gone now, of course, but he was an example of this.

Rio says thanks for the happy 14th birthday wishes. Time flies. He is always watching. Doesn't want to miss anything.

Still staying close to home. We are fortunate to have the forest preserve right next door, so we can walk there. Sure hope we can see you all in May! Posting a photo of Strider and Mitch with Frank at their graduation a year or so ago. Notice Stider's foot is on Frank's shoe. Love puppies.

We have had several requests for ring rental information. The cost is $20 for 1 hr., 1 ring. $10 for 1/2 hr., 1 ring. It does not matter how many people are in the ring. Well, within reason. We have jumps for obedience. These rings must be reserved. We have classes Monday through Thursday, evenings, so not available then. Classes Wed. morning also. Otherwise they are available unless someone has reserved one.
