Good Luck!!

Good luck to everyone who has entered the Alberta Kennel Club Dog Show events this coming weekend.  There are over 32 specialties for spectators to see.  In addition to conformation, the club is offering obedience and rally obedience, plus agility trials..... and, of course good luck to our Due South Scent Hurdlers, who perform after Best in Show on Friday and Saturday.  My dogs will be pooped after a day of NADAC agility but I know our team will give it 100%!  
                           GO DUE SOUTH!!!!
A reminder that the Great Falls Dog Training Club has its entry close on August 13th for those who wish to join us Stateside.

Cranbrook closes August 6th so hurry, Murray, if you want to play at Cranbrook, always an enjoyable show.

Please join us at the Winchestser Cattle Co. Ranch 16 kms. south of Pincher Creek from Tuesday until Thursday to watch some all breed herding trials.  You will have the pleasure of seeing Australian Cattle dogs, Shetland sheepdogs, Belgian sheepdogs, Cardigan corgis, and German shepherds herd sheep.

Directions to Trial Site

From Calgary:

Take #2 South, then head West on #3, then head South on #6 - Pincher Creek.  You will be skirting the edges of town so be sure that when you come to the traffic circle you go ¾ of the way around that will keep you on #6.  At the traffic lights, there is only one set, take an odometer reading as it is 16.5 K on #6 South to the turnoff.  You will be going South toward Waterton Lakes National Park. You will be turning west (right) onto Township Road 45 - A. It is a gravel road. Follow for 2k. As you come over the hill you will see the farm. If you go under a train trestle you have gone too far! Turn around come North and take the first turn to the west (left). We have a lot of deer, elk and moose in this area so watch for them when driving from Pincher Creek to the farm please. I will have bright orange Cardigan's marking the trail from the highway.
