Message From Your President
The time is right around the
corner when we have our annual
Auction/Picnic. This is going to be on
July 19th at our place around 11:30.
Please come and join us for some
good food. Bring a side dish and
something to auction off. Probably a chair as well.
This money goes towards our leases for training
property. Also we will draw for the duck and dove
hunts at the East pond.

JULY 26-27, 2014 - Berthoud, CO
Bill shares his training methods and
secrets to produce a fabulous retriever,
whether you are interested in a family dog,
a hunting dog, or a dog for hunt test and
field trial competition. While owners of
dogs at all levels will benefit from this
seminar, specific focus is on retrievers in
the Basics and Transition stages of their
careers. To illustrate specific concepts and
drills, Bill will work throughout the course
of the seminar with various dog/handler
teams but every dog will not run every
setup.
Cost is $225 per person with one dog
