A Note From Prez Nancy Goldman
We had a very speedy and productive tunnel pull/storage last Saturday and even had time to do some badly needed grooming to all the den sites.
A huge thank you to Jan VanSyckel who went above and beyond, arriving at 7:15am before the gate was even unlocked! And to the rest of the crew, in no particular order, Mark & Michele Dougherty, Brina & John Powell, Hannah, Kate Pfluke, Ann Margola Louise Traska, Julia Haas, Nancy Sankus, Cheryl Cyr & Bob Haas and Julie LaFreniere!
The Dirty Dozen became the Fantastic Fifteen! Thank you all! Wishing you and your Earthdogs a happy and healthy Winter.
See you in the Spring!
The Greater Boston Area Earthdog Club invites you and your dog to come try Earthdog at our Training Days!
The Greater Boston Area Earthdog Club (GBAEC.net) will be hosting Earthdog Training Days. You don't have to be a member of the GBAEC to participate. There is no charge to come and play!
This is an opportunity to try out earth dog for the first time, to work on the "next level" before a trial, or to hone your and your dog's skills and improve comfort levels. All levels (Intro, Novice, Junior, Senior and Master) will be available for training.
Greater Boston Area Earthdog Club is based in Gardner MA at the Gardner Fish and Gun Club. Our season is from May to September with two Trial weekends and a practice each month. We are hosting ScentWork Trials and are looking into other fun things to do between Earthdog events.
If you are in the New England area and are interested in joining our Earthdog Club, come to one of our events or practices or Email: Hannah Gregorio (hnngregor4@aol.net) for more information.
Please look through our website. Checkout our Calendar for Events and practices and pictures of our club members and guests having fun with their four footed buddies! Membership Application is in the Files section.
GBAEC members, many of whom are experienced Earthdog competitors and several are Earthdog judges, will be there to assist with training and share tips. It's a super opportunity to leverage their experience and enjoy the great outdoors with your dog.
Breeds eligible for Earthdog are generally the shorter legged terriers, Miniature Schnauzers, Dachshunds and Min Pins that can fit in the 9”h x 9”w tunnels. AKC eligible breeds can be found here: http://www.akc.org/events/earth-dog/eligible-breeds/
Email Nancy Goldman, Training Coordinator (goldmann@mindspring.com) if you plan to come. Provide level you want to train and breed of dog.
