Thank you to everyone who came out this weekend support and play with us during the Great Lakes Fiber Show. Many new dogs had a chance to learn about Rodeo Dog and Happy Ratters. The Wayne County Fairgrounds is a beautiful venue for any event.
Tonight I came across this plan to put into action each time you trialing or just visitng with your dog. It is a great reminder to handlers when taking your dog to new places (or even places they haven't been in a while, a year, a month or even a week). Be there to set your dog up for success. I am looking forward to seeing everyone at our summer events♡.
