New Rally Drop In Class
We are please to announce that Beth Baily will be teaching a Drop In Rally Obedience Class every Wednesday evening at 6:15 p.m. starting May 7th. Beth has been involved with training animals all of her life. She started in 4H showing horses. She has been training dogs since 1987. She has competed in UKC and AKC events and has put conformation, rally, obedience, tracking and hunting titles on her dogs (RN, RA, RE, RAE, RAE2, CD, CDX, UD, UDX2, OTCH, TD, TDX & JH). She taught 4H dog training for 8 years. She is an AKC Rally Obedience Judge and an ASCA Obedience Judge. Beth attends as many obedience seminars as she can and believes you can learn something new from everyone. There is always more than one way to solve a problem.

Drop In Rally Classes are $10 per hour session or 6 sessions for $50.

To learn more about Rally Obedience go to: AKC Rally Obedience

Fast and the Furriest,
Saturday, April 19th
The Dog Club is a sponsor of this event which is a 5K/1K run-walk with pets. It benefits the Companion Care Fund which offers financial assistance to clients of CSU's Vet Medical Center who have an animal in need of emergency or immediate life-saving care. Without this fund, many clients would be faced with the difficult choice of declining care for their animal or relinquishing ownership. Over 475 runners attended last year's event. Stop by The Dog Club's booth and register to win free services. The event is held at CSU Vet Medical Center.

Meet the Staff: Shelley Tuttle
Shelly Tuttle
Shelley is 23 years old and has been working at The Dog Club for just a few months. She was born in Sacramento, CA and has lived in Colorado for 5 years. She has travelled quite a bit and has lived in France, Costa Rica and Spain. She is very active and likes to ski, hike and play baseball. Prior to coming to The Dog Club she volunteered at Animal House, a local no-kill shelter. She cleaned kennels, followed up on adoption calls, fed, walked and cared for the animals there. She has one dog, Teddy an Aussie mix. She is wonderful with the dogs and thinks daycare is a great job because it's like she owns lots of dogs, not just one.

Grooming:
Now that spring is here, your dogs are starting to shed and are in need of baths and grooming. Linda Uchytil is our groomer and is available on Monday, Wednesdays and Fridays. She books up days in advanced, so please make your appointments early. Baths and brushouts can be done by the daycare staff, but advanced notice is greatly appreciated.
