Spokane Dog Fanciers Fun Matches
Terry at nosework
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.
2019 fun match dates:
Jan 20,
Feb 10,
March 10-
plan accordingly
2018
January match-our portion-$187
February (right before show) - $327
March-$157
We earned almost $700 for our club from these 3 shows so it is well worth our while. These funds basically pay for our club insurance.
Certificate Of Conformation Assessment
Christy Swanson & Callie New CCA
Johanna Doty is hosting a CCA event. She has come up with a proposed 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.
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 figure we will fill (which is 24) with club members. 24 X 75= $1800

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.
Working Certificate Test
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/
