Beginning Aug. 23, the Hangtown Kennel Club of Placerville is offering their final six-week session for 2012 of obedience and conformation classes at the El Dorado Fairgrounds in Placerville.
Classes offered include both breed and obedience training. For breed work, conformation handling classes focus on the finer points of handling your dog in AKC shows. For obedience, available classes are puppy kindergarten; beginning obedience, and intermediate obedience.
Classes are held Thursdays each week at 7 p.m. through Sept. 27. For the August 23 class only, dog owners are asked to arrive by 6:30 p.m. for the registration process and fitting of collars and leashes.
Pre-registration is required for all obedience classes. Puppy and beginning obedience is $90 (includes leash & collar). All other obedience classes are $75 for the six-week session. Conformation classes are offered on a “drop in” basis, at $5 per class. Proof of all age-appropriate vaccinations is required at the first class.
For more information, visit the Hangtown Kennel Club website at hangtownkc.org, or call Cathy Keeler to enroll at 530-622-6909.
Taking your dogs onto this kind of special class would probably can be compared into taking care of your children but then it’s not exactly the whole thing just a bit similar.
