Limited to 6 spots!
Get some practice in before your next trials! Some limited feedback and advice are provided.
Initial walk through will be at 7:45; if you arrive later you will still get to walk through. Every team will get two run throughs - more if time allows.
There will be a nested course for Novice - Excellent. Certain Master signs may be substituted in if there is enough interest. Identify your level when you arrive to help establish the run order. Exc / Adv will go first, then the jump(s) will be removed for Int / Nov. You do not need to be working full courses; during your turn, work on whatever you'd like to.
Crating inside is allowed if the dogs are reasonably calm and quiet.
