The OG New England, GSDC, Inc, would like to extend an invitation to everyone to join us in this historic event! Friday, Saturday is the Regional Trial October 7 & 8, 2011 with World respected SV Trial Judge, Dirk Stocks. We are truly honored to have Herr Stocks come to the United States for us. Herr Stocks has judged internationally for many years. He is known for his true judging for the level he is judging. He is very fair to those just starting out as well. He will be here with us to share also his teachings and experience. On Sunday, October 9th, 2011 we will be hosting the N.E. Regional Conformation show with SV Show judge Ansgar Kartheiser. Herr Kartheiser is also a very true judge and judges the dogs, not who handles the dog. He appreciates the youth in the ring very much! He too shares with us his years of experience and trueness to the German Shepherd Dog. We will be having our usual Junior Handling workshop at half time and HIGHLY ENCOURAGE all children to pre enter so we can make sure we have enough prizes for the kids. We usually have 12-15 kids in the ring learning from the German and American handlers as well as top breeders from all over donating their time to help us. The judge gives them plenty of pointers to teach them too! We highly support the kids being involved in the Trial as well, so any Juniors out there doing Obedience, the BH is a great opportunity to show your stuff, whether its the first dog you ever handled or your 10th! The WDA provides points for the kids so lets get their points going!! For those who wish to train with us on our field, we are here for you, just let us know! There is no charge, of course, same with the Juniors any time they want to come up, give Dawnmarie an email to _OGNewEngland@xxxxxxxx (mailto:OGNewEngland@xxxxxxx) We are very fortunate to have 2x World team member Kevin Lanouette as our Training Director and share with us his time, when he is not training for his competition. The event is a year away, plenty of time but we wanted to get the word out so MARK YOUR CALENDARS! Watch our website for updates _http://ognewengland.com/_ (http://ognewengland.com/) PS word has it, we have a special guest that is going to help us to host this event, if he doesn't go to the Worlds that weekend, although we want him to represent our World Team, if he doesn't, his 22 years experience and sound reputation in the southern part of the United States, is going to donate his time to help us put on an AWESOME REGIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP possible with everyone else's help and support! What better person to lay tracks for us than someone who won a North American FH Championships, not to mention many years on our National Team and World Team... more info to follow :) In closing, we are going to be hosting a Mock Obedience Trial soon, and welcome those looking to fine tune their obedience! We will be hosting a CGC and TC for our members as well, if there is room left, we can open it to anyone who wishes. More info to follow. Thank you for your support! Remember it should NEVER matter where your dog comes from, which ocean, which bloodline, its all about the dogs, NOT US!!! HAVE FUN WITH YOUR DOGS, leave the politics and stupid nonsense at home!!!!
