A HUGE thank you to our sponsors!

  • Thank you to Abbie Tamber for her kind and generous donation, we were surprised by some additional fees bringing the dogs home, so this helps tremendously!
  • Nan Keder and the late Bill Gignac for their tremendously generous sponsorship check - I am moved to tears by the generousity of my friends near and far. In Bill's memory, I will be sure to "Go have fun with my dogs" - this was always his and Nan's advice before any competition and it will surely help me keep everything in perspective. Again THANK YOU!!!

Fundraising efforts continue!

The T-shirts (pictures in the previous post) are selling like Hotcakes. Only XLs left. However, note that the XLs run a bit small - they are more like a regular Large, it seems. Anyways - they still make great nightshirts for us short people too!

Also - anyone that is looking for a nice, all round Doggy magazine that caters to all "sports" and training including agility, rally, herding and more - DOGSPORT is the magazine you need to subscribe to! AND if you subscribe through me - they give me a portion of each subscription I sign up! To learn more about the magazine, visit their website and then email me with your request! I'll sign you up, you send me a check, written out to Dog Sport Magazine and then you get your subscription! And unlike many of the other dog sport publications, they pay for photos and articles, so you can be sure there will be a nice story relaying our Wales adventure in one of their winter issues!
