Upcoming Agility in Michigan

The following TWO messages were posted at the MI Dog Event Info yahoo group. I am just passing them along.

If your schedule is clear and you are looking for some great fun with your 17" or under dog, have been doing agility and want to check out a venue you have yet to try, come on up to Pine Meadow's farm in South Boardman, Michigan (East of Traverse City) and try Teacup Agility (TDAA-Teacup Dog Agility Association) at our trial this weekend. Our judge is Margaret Henderschot from Ohio. She will also be doing a short distance workshop on Friday afternoon (space is limited but we may be able to squeeze in another or 2) plus two games to try out your new distance skills. Saturday and Sunday will have 2 standard and 2 games each day-more distance games. Come and join the fun.

If you are not familiar with TDAA, it is the ONLY venue I know of where you can register your dag at the trial site and RUN your dog the same weekend. We will also have sufficient judges on site to measure your dogs for their jump height card. It is the TDAA Trifecta-Register, Run and Get your Jump height card in one fun weekend.

As always, we accept day of trial entries, so if your plans change and grandma's birthday party has been postponed come and enjoy the fun. If you have never tried TDAA you may also run your dog FEO (For Exhibition Only) just to get a taste of the smaller equipment and closer quarters.
In any case we always have fun.

For more information, please contact me at beekeeper@tm.net and I can send the premium. In case you get hooked on this venue, we have 4 other trials scheduled for this year, also.
