*Exciting News & Request to Take Care*
Friday, April 17, from 4:00-6:00 PM Kool Tintz will be at MOTC to tint our building doors. We hope this will allow us to have a more enjoyable training atmosphere during the warmer months when the sun is shining so brightly through our doors! Note: 1. PLEASE Do Not schedule a ring rental tomorrow, as opening the doors and dogs going in and out will adversely affect how well the tint stays on the door. The technician does not need to fight dust and dog hair while applying the tint. If you really need to rent the ring, then please try and do so either before noon or after 6:00 PM. We realize people want to get in some extra work before the trial next weekend, but this was the only time available in the near future for Kool Tintz to come out. 2. Please Do Not post anything on the inside of the door! If a sign needs to be put up, please place it in the windows on either side of the doors. Tape CANNOT be applied to the tint! 3. Please be very careful as you go in and out the front doors. Dogs jumping on the doors will tear the tint as will people bumping them as they go in and out. If you have to carry supplies or equipment in/out then please get help to hold the door open for you. If you have questions or concerns, please feel free to contact Donna Simpson.

Do you dream of a dog that comes when called, walks politely on a leash, knows how to sit, down, and stay? Does cute party tricks? And even leaves the trash can alone? Do you want the best training jumpstart for your puppy, where they can have positive experiences around other pups, surfaces, and learn to focus their attention? Do you want to have the most well-behaved dog in your neighborhood? We can help! All levels of owner and pup experience are welcome, Puppy to Basic Manners to Canine Good Citizen and beyond, with specialty sports like agility, scentwork, and rally obedience available for dogs having completed foundation training.
