Ground Lighting Upgrade to LED with assistance from Gambling Community Fund
Replacing the lighting enabled us to continue running evening classes and Agility and Obedience Trials especially during the summer months when it is often too hot to do so during the day. The old lighting was put up in the 1970's and was starting to fail, was expensive to run and below standard lighting levels for Agility Competition. After we were successful with the grant application one of the power poles fell over into our big gum tree - not great timing but it encouraged us to get moving on the project. Many thanks to the small hard working team that got the job done - Murray worked the lighting plan over many many times until we were happy with the design and Kevin our groundsman overseeing the underground cabling so that we don't have to worry about trees falling on cables. Chris de Jong our electrician was very patient with us, Logan Power Poles were great to work with and Tiger Lighsts supplied the LED's.
Kamal Fernandez Obedience Seminar
Last weekend a group of trainers and students attended Kamal Fernandez seminar down at Camp Tailwaggers. I think we all gained alot of information about relationship building with our dogs. Emma & Jenny Gill, Kamal, Ruth Raymond, Cherie Bekker and Leonie Crowe - front row Stig and Jessie Gill and Chedy Crowe.
Behaviour Adjustment Training for Aggression, Frustration and Fear seminar. Instructors Leonie Crowe, Ruth Raymond and Caroline King spent the weekend of the 8/9th November with presenter Joey Iversen at the Empowered Desensitisation course. Learnt lots that we can pass onto members. Come talk to us about issues you may be having.
Posing with Dr Ian Dunbar after attending the three day seminar "Science Based Dog Training with Feeling" - lots of information to process and lots of new ideas to incorporate.
