BethP Posted April 12, 2006 Report Share Posted April 12, 2006 Hi, I'm interested in starting my BC on sheep, but am a beginner. Does anyone know of any clinics or places in SE Wisconsin or NE Illinois where I can get started? Any help would be appreciated, Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura L Posted April 12, 2006 Report Share Posted April 12, 2006 Beth, We are hosting a Patrick Shannahan clinic and the beginner part of it is April 28 & 29 in Portage, WI. There are still a couple of spots left. If you are interested you can email me LauraLWentz@aol.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peg Haese Posted April 12, 2006 Report Share Posted April 12, 2006 Beth, I'd like to add that spectating at a clinic first can be a good way to ease into the culture and meet people. Of course jumping in all the way works too. The Shannahan clinic at Portage would be really helpful. Patrick has a great way with new dogs and handlers. Brag mode on: Chico, the dog in my avatar photo, is a litterbrother to Laura L.'s wonderful Brock.

juliepoudrier Posted April 13, 2006 Report Share Posted April 13, 2006 It's not terribly close to you (at least it's in the same state), but if you can go and audit it would be well worth it, and that's the Derek Scrimgeour clinic being held in May (I don't remember the exact dates, but the clinic is over two weeks) being held at Kensmuir in River Falls. If you are interested, you can PM me and I will give you the contact information. J. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
