Yeah, between the two of you.....See you guys Sat!

We've had a really good response and I think we're going to be short on birds. If anyone can get us more pigeons, we'll take whatever you can get!

Thanks- Hap

Thanks to those who showed up! I'd say almost double the expected crowd showed up. We had over 60 dogs in attendance. Things went slow but smoothly.

Good news, we have a good start on buying food for the shelters. We took in close to $700. We're having our April 3rd day and then puting it together to buy and distribute food.

Thanks again, April 3rd, Sat. is the next training day/shelter food fundraiser.

Had a great time on Saturday, but do not know if i will be at the next one.

If i am you can plan on more help from me and the wife. I will drag her out to a blind if i have to.


Rocky loves helping out with the training session, maybe she could get her boyfriend to come out and help also  ;)

Lots of guns around, we should be able to keep the boyfriend in line....keep an eye on him from the flier station, should be able to sting him at distance... :chuckle:

My dad and I went on Saturday. We had a good time. It was the first time my dog was able to be around so many people and dogs.  He his 8 months and old and did really well.

We're hoping to go to the next one on April 3rd.

I don't think we met you. We did meet a few people though. My dad and I were there for about 4 hours and I ran the dog a couple of times. Maybe we'll see you next time :dunno:

FYI to all;

We raised $1,100 dollars total. I'm working with PetPro's to get a special discount on buying a bunch of food. Currently we've got a supplier, Avoderm, to give us BOGO on cans of cat food. Working to do the same with about $900 of the money for dog food. We're taking it to Pierce, King and Snohomish Animal shelters and one private group in woodinville.
