juliepoudrier Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 Hey everyone, We are having Jack Knox back at Willow's Rest this coming January. We've moved the date back a week to January 16-19 so as not to conflict with the Edgeworth Winter Trial. Last year's clinic was a great success--lots of good learning for both dogs and their handlers, as well as the spectators. This year the clinic will have the same three-day format. We have a 50-foot round pen and a approximately 7-acre field, as well as everything from well-dog-broke puppy sheep up to the challenging wool ewe flock. Jack is well-known here and is an excellent trainer and clinician. The cost is the same as last year: $220/dog for a three-day slot and $25/day to audit. We are limiting working slots to ensure that we have adequate time to get all the dogs worked twice a day. If you would like further information or an entry form, please contact Tina DeAngelo at osci @ aol.com (remove spaces), who is doing the administrative work for the clinic. If you have general questions, you can post them here and I'll answer. Thanks. Julie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
painted_ponies Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 I just sent an email requesting an entry form. I had such a blast last year. I think maybe it will be just me and Violet this year, though. Faith hasn't quite got in touch yet with her inner sheep dog. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to, as long as the pussycats don't mind sharing their bed with me again. So I'll know what to bring, what kind of wine is Pip drinking this year?

Shoofly Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 If it's Pip, it's gotta be *white* wine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebecca, Irena Farm Posted November 23, 2008 Report Share Posted November 23, 2008 Now since when do we match beverage to our attire? For last year's wonderful lamb, I hear Zinfandel goes with garlic well. If we're going with a sweeter flavor or natural, Cabernet Sauvignon. Mr. Pip will simply have to take care not to spill it on his white dinner jacket. Quick, ask how a non-drinker knows anything about wine . . .

Robin - Srsly, though, last time Pip and I shared a bottle it was pinot noir - but we didn't have to worry about him spilling nary drop on his formal attire.

juliepoudrier Posted November 24, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 Sally, Pip says that any old wine will do. He's more of the teenaged boy just out to have a good time--no real refined wine palate there. Actually what he really told me to say is that he's not particular about his wine, it's the person whose lap he's sitting in at the time that really matters! LOL. J.

BC-Liz Posted December 3, 2008 Report Share Posted December 3, 2008 This may be a perfect way to see what this is all about. Do you need to fill out an entry form to audit? And can one bring the pups if one is auditing? Thanks! ETA: is that $25/person/day? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
