ASCUK CLICKER TRAINING DAY &
FUN DAY (2) (NORTH)
Sat 29th & Sun 30th August 2009
After a busy Training Day on the Saturday, Sunday dawned cloudy and overcast. It didn't stop everyone enjoying themselves and great fun was had by all. There was have a go agility, obedience and flyball. These activities produced much hilarity and were busy all morning. Julie Blackburn was also trimming dogs for donations to rescue and Pat Gatenby produced a wonderful lunch as always. ASCUK must say a big THANK YOU to David and Lesley for agreeing to come from Ireland and give their time to provide us with an interesting, entertaining and though provoking weekend.
