SUMMER CAMP

Summer camp known as Boot Camp is 3 to 5 days of intensive handler and dog training.  We will work dogs mornings and afternoons and make lecture tapes in between. Depending on which camp you are eligible for, I will cover all aspects from starting your dog in the round pen to making and working the trial course. We will go over all aspects of training your stockdog for ranch work and trial work. Sessions will be taped and reviewed to see what is done right and wrong. If there are Ranch chores to be done while you are here we will work them in also. The tapes that are made during the camp are optional but highly recommended for the first time campers

The cost for this is $ 450 a dog, spectators $200. The number of tapes usually runs between 4 and 6 per camp and cost $ 25.00 a tape. To save a spot in the Camps there is a $200.00 non-refundable deposit unless other arrangements have been made. If you have a self-contained camper you can stay at the ranch. If not there are several Motels and camp grounds in the area where you can stay. Make your reservations early because during the summer this is a tourist area.

I schedule my lessons and camps through a Yahoo Group.  If you are interested in being added to the group contact me via email

The above programs are done on a routine basis however it is possible to design a program to fit your needs.
