This class, run by Dick Cillo, builds upon the skills learned in Novice and Advanced Rally, incorporating more challenging exercises performed off-leash.

This one-hour class begins Thursday September 4th at 7 PM and runs for 6 consecutive weeks. The cost is $150. Class size is limited to 6 teams.

For all the inquiring minds….we’ve finally identified who has been digging holes in the sand at WB! In an effort to maintain good relations, we’ve named him Jeffrey.

We had a great day Saturday at the LEAP Agility Club Scent Work trial in CT. After months of work and tweaking our training plan (and goals!) it all came together. My goal was for Stevie to have fun and be confident and she nailed it. Imagine my surprise when I realized that we won HIT and HCT (Advanced)! I’m so proud of this girl.

Sunday the wheels came off the little red bus, which I expected based on how tired she was. We tried two classes and it was clear that she wasn’t engaged so I pulled her from the remaining classes. We then headed for Springfield and managed to make a late BOB class where she won O/H BOB. Went out to the car to take a breath and make some calls and missed group! As always, lots of valuable lessons. Trials are great for people watching, too. You can learn a lot as a spectator or volunteer. Thank you LEAP for a great experience and wonderful people!

Scenes from a summer scent work class. Bailey the Cocker is our class poser! She and Corgi Dillon love the camera. I absolutely adore all these dogs and handlers. One of the most rewarding things is watching the friendships form in these groups. So looking forward to watching them all grow together.

And for everyone I wasn’t able to get a good picture of, we’ll be scheduling a time later this summer just for that purpose. Stay tuned! Kristie Adams

Tons of fun with our friend Karen Holden and her litter of Aussies today! The Vt. Lakes & Streams crew is fun, fearless and correct with dispositions to match.

These pups show potential in many venues and there may be some limited availability ! Kristie Adams

This is so true, and such a lovely sentiment. I hope that anyone who trains with us always feels supported. We’ve all been there - and sometimes we’re STILL there!
We want to be the reason you start AND the reason you stay. Kristie Adams

Congratulations to everyone in the level 2 SW class! I’m so pleased with the skills you’ve developed, but more importantly, the connections you’ve made with your dogs and each other. From day one at Warner Brook, safety and a supportive culture have been top priorities and you’ve all nailed it! Looking forward to seeing you back for the next session.Kristie Adamss

SAFETY ALERT: As temperatures moderate and we get more precipitation, our dog walking/hiking needs made change. Below are some basic safety tips.

If you need traction, consider something like Yaktrax (coiled) which are less likely to puncture the dog’s foot in case of a misstep.
If you have a competition Obedience dog, train a cue for “in front” or “with me”, but NOT heel. Because these dogs are so heavily rewarded for that close, beautiful heel position, it may take time to condition them to move away from you (and reduce the risk of being spiked).
Dog booties may help, but remember that they need to be conditioned prior to use.
Consider a head halter if you have a strong and/or impulsive dog. That added control of the front end may keep you on your feet should the dog bolt.
Always check your dog’s paws after hikes/walks. Look for foreign bodies, redness, inflammation, bleeding or any other unusual conditions.
Keep a basic first aid kit in your pack and consult your veterinarian with concerns. (NOT Facebook or someone who stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night)!
