***********************************

TWO of our previous CGC-earning dogs, Chase and Marco, participated in the
ON COURSE FOR KIDS
event at the Boston Expo Center.  This agility event raises
funds for kids with cancer.  For more information visit
http://www.dogsofcourse.com/ocfk.htm.
Tina has been the Volunteer Coordinator at this event and last year she was
in charge of the prize, trophy and ribbon tables and led the parade!  Son Tucker and
some of his friends and fellow students from Worcester Academy have helped each
year, too, with set-up, timing, course-work, the parade and more.
 

At one of our Canine Good Citizen tests, our students helped us collect LOTS of things
for the Worcester Animal Rescue League in honor of Responsible Dog Ownership Day.
We held  a similar event later in the year in conjunction with our agility run-throughs and
with our scheduled classes for that week.

EVENTS and EXTRAS

     We offer a variety of special programs throughout the year including Canine Good Citizen tests (we are approved as evaluators for this test by the American Kennel Club), agility and obedience run-thrus, workshops on various dog sports and more.  We can also provide these events for your organization.  For example, for the past several summers we have judged 4-H kids in Westford, Massachusetts in obedience, agility and fitting & showmanship.  We have helped a local 4-H group with Canine Good Citizen training and therapy work.   A local Girl Scout group came to us for some training to be used towards one of their goals.  We have taught dog safety programs for elementary school kids for a number of years. We have worked on the American Kennel Club's National Agility Championships committee (Luis was equipment chairman, Tina was Chief Steward).  What can we do for you?!

     We also welcome the opportunity to participate in community events.  For several years we have given a number of agility demonstrations each day at the Bolton Fair in Bolton, Massachusetts (www.boltonfair.org).  We have also taken part in the HudsonFest in Hudson, Massachusetts.
