Obedience and Rally Fun Matches are held in conjunction with our local Sheltie Club and Collie Club on a Sunday in January, February, and March.  The matches are held indoors at Spokane Dog Training Club.  We always need more workers.  Even if obedience is not your sport of choice, please help out for a couple of hours to support your club.

CCA IS FULL!

Johanna Doty is hosting a CCA event.  panel of evaluators:  Ainslee Mills, Judy Slayton-Bachofner, & Jane Jensen.  Johanna has estimated that it will cost at least $1500 for judges travel ($600), hotel (Oxford Inn $155 X 6 nights=$930), etc.  Then we have our ribbon expense (approx 125) on top of that which is required by GRCA.  Most recent posting of a CCA shows an $75 entry fee!  Jeanie suggested we buy Costco croissant sandwiches ($32.95 for 20 half sandwiches) and have 3 members bring salads, and 3 members bring a dessert.  Dani volunteered for a dessert.  Johanna will bring a crock pot of meatballs, Mavourneen will bring a green salad, Mary Cole will bring a broccolli salad.  Marilee will measure, Ellen will assist.  Jeanie and Gene will photograph.  Workers to show at 7:30.  Johanna will pick up judges.

We are looking at Saturday, March 9, 2019 at Spokane Dog Training Club ($175).  Now that we have the date, Johanna has contacted the evaluators.  We havel filled (which is 24) with club members.  24 X 75= $1800

Dr. Sheryl Krohne( & Onyx)

The veterinary cardiologist that was scheduled for this Memorial Weekend has cancelled due to a family emergency.  We will still be having the eye clinic.

Each Saturday after our Friday Specialty Show, we sponsor a health clinic featuring a Veterinary Ophthmalogist and a Veterinary Cardiologist.  2018 featured Dr Maran from Olympic Veterinary Cardiology and offered online booking at $45 for ascultation and $200 for an echocardiogram:

Dr Maran said 49 dogs were processed in 2018.

Ophthamologist for 2018 was Dr Sheryl Krohne.  Eye exam price was $28.

81 dogs went through the eye clinic, a new record!

Thank you to all our workers and participants!  Both Doctors were thrilled with their responses.  Dr Krohne said the eye clinic was the best attended and most organized.

Gene Daspit & Corrie New JH

Gene Daspit and Johanna Doty are both exploring the idea of holding a WC/WCX test.  Insurance is one of the factors stopping us.  We may try to work with North Idaho Retriever club to make something happen.  Please consider joining them.  https://www.facebook.com/North-Idaho-Retriever-Club-540273832986790/
