“O”GILITY®

(MUST PRE-REGISTER)
 

I am very excited about our upcoming “O”Gility® Competitions. We will be holding two Events this year in both Adult and Youth Divisions. The first event will be held at Sun Dog Training Facility, 79871 Kidder Road, Bruce Twp.,  MI on July 26th starting at 10:00 a.m. The second event will be held at A K-9 at 3434 Hart Rd., Jackson, MI  48301 on September 20, starting at 10:00 a.m.

 

If you are wondering what “O”Gility® is . . . it is a combination of Obedience and Agility. There is no time clock involved in this, just accuracy in both areas. The entire format for “O”Gility®, along with field diagrams can be viewed on our “O”Gility® Page.

 

I would really like to see both individuals and clubs become involved in this sport. Nutro Foods, once again, will be providing all of the prizes, which will include dog food and t-shirts at each event. The two top dogs of the year, one in Youth Division and one in the Adult Division, will receive free dog food for one year. This new sport has the potential to really grow. With the wonderful Sponsor, like Nutro, standing behind us in the early stages I can’t help but feel that we are heading in the right direction. All we need is for you to become involved. This is a very cost effective program. Please take a serious look at it, you could be getting in on the ground floor of something very special!

 

If you are not sure how to train for “O”Gility®, please contact one of the following people;

Amanda @ A K-9 in Jackson, MI, (517) 740-3454, or Kevin @ Elite K-9 in Lake Orion, MI, (248) 885-5551, or Jerry @ Sun Dog Training Facility in Romeo, MI, (810) 798-2474.

 

 

OBEDIENCE TITLES

 (MUST PRE-REGISTER)

 

Sun Dog Training Facility is continuing to offer Obedience Titles. These are not competitions; they are a pass-fail type of evaluation. All information can be found on our Obedience Title Page.

 

We will be holding two events this year. The first event will be held at Sun Dog Training Facility in Romeo, MI on July 26th starting at 10:00 a.m. The second event will be held at A K-9 - 3434 Hart Rd., Jackson, MI  48301 on September 20 starting at 10:00 a.m.

 

If you need any help with your training, please feel to contact the following people:

Amanda @ A K-9 in Jackson, MI, (517) 740-3454, Kevin @ Elite K-9 in Lake Orion, MI, (248) 885-5551, or Jerry @ Sun Dog Training Facility in Romeo, MI, (810) 798-2474.



PUPPY FUN! MATCH

This class is for puppies one year or less.

The idea of this class is to give dogs and owners, both adult and youth, an opportunity to take in the entire Sun Dog experience such as Obedience, ‘O` Gility ® and Streetdog.

This is not a competition, it is for FUN! There are three stages to the event and  you can do all three, or do only one or two. To view your choices see field diagram.

All dogs will be judged but they will not be placed in any order, such as 1st, 2nd, 3rd. All dogs and owners will receive a Gold Star and a Certificate of Participation.

You will also be able to speak with the judges regarding your score. This will give you an opportunity to better understand what Sun Dog judges look for and how to improve your score in the future.



 

The cost of entering your dog is $15.00.

This puppy class will be the first class on the field at 10:30 am at all future Sun Dog events.

We will be showcasing this class at our next event, Sept 19th 2009 at A-K9 in Jackson, Mich.

There will also be a puppy FUN Class at our Oct. 10th event at Sun Dog in Romeo, MI.

Come and join us with your puppy and have FUN!
