BREEDING MUD

2005 RULE BOOKS

Called CKC today and learned that the new Rule Books for both Hunt Tests and Working Certificates are available. I have ordered them both and will update the site ASAP

DON'T TRY!

Dr. RUSHTON came to out obedience class last evening and left us with lots of very useful info, including. Grapes and Raisins (which are dried grapes) are poisenous to dogs. As little as one grape could cause death. Grapes and Raisins cause kidney failure. This news is especially important to Lab owners who often allow their dogs to eat various types of fruit and vetetables.

BUFFALOED!

Dale STEWART, who bought "Jersey", one of Ada's first pups has finished his RCMP training and posted to Fort Smith, North West Territories. Dale calls quite often to report on his training and new experiences. He has been most anxious to hunt buffalo and just as anxious to call the other day to say that he shot a huge buffalo. I then called his fiancee, Karyn COOLING who still lives here in Dartmouth, and offere to sell their "Buffalo Wings" on commission. Karyn asked Dale but he didn't think that was a very good idea:-)
