Do you know someone in the club who has had a pet cross the rainbow bridge? Maybe had a surgery, or a death in their family? The Sunshine Committee has always been willing to send out sympathy cards, but they can’t do their job if no one tells them about it!
There is button in the Members Area where you can send a quick note to the Sunshine Committee Chair.
Please welcome Mary Kemphues as our new Sunshine Committee Chair! She can also be reached at sunshine@gcdoc.com
The updated Agility registration form is now on the bottom of the Class Schedule page. Hurry and mail it in, classes fill quickly!
Attention members!
Obedience class registration will be open for ONE WEEK ONLY for you to early register as a member.
AFTER THE FIRST WEEK it will be open once again to the general public.
YOU MUST FOLLOW THIS LINK TO REGISTER!
Going to the general website will not work, as I have hidden the registration to give our members first choice.
Important note! If you are using a voucher to pay for the class, you MUST now send your voucher to the registrar to secure your place in the class. The honor system has been taken advantage of, our club needs the money. No longer turning in the voucher is grounds for dismissal from the class and a paying customer taking your place.
We are excited that some of you are back earning titles on your dogs (safely, we hope!).
The form to submit titles for your dogs is now available on the website.
Both the submission form and the list of what has been submitted are currently available from the membership login area, just look for the “Submit 2021 titles” box after you’ve logged in, it’s under the list of board members. The form to submit does NOT require a log in, however, the link to view the submission (with email addresses and names) is a restricted page and you must log in to view it.
Hello everyone.
Great to meet everyone and accept the position as obedience director. Thank you to the board for having confidence in me to get the job done. I am new to the club but not new to dog training. My experience started at age 10 with my rottie mix in 4-H. Demon was my angel and God send and made me into the person I am today. We trained in obedience (competing in Utility in our final year), Rally (up to Excellent), Conformation, and a little bit of Agility. There are several of you that were a part of my 4-H journey and I thank you for your time and know you all hold a special place in my heart. I am excited to see what this obedience director job holds for me. I love meeting new people and having new experiences. I want to provide the best service to all of you, so please feel free to reach out with any questions, comments, or concerns. I do work night shift so if I don’t email or text right away I might be sleeping. My email is demondog_1990@yahoo.com. Or feel free to text anytime at 740-606-8943. I accept calls but I am not the greatest at answering. Now enough about me for now. The attached survey is to help me get to know all of you. I want to know your backgrounds, your interests, what makes you happy. As said in the last meeting, we are all a team. No one is more or less important than the next. Please fill out this survey honestly and let’s give 2021 a boost to being better than 2020.
Looking forward to working with all of you

We have no Obedience director! This means that while we made every effort to contact instructors, some class times may change in the first week, some classes may be added or removed. Please try to be patient as we work through this!

Our little Hailey was always a little shy in public, but she loved to work.
She would play frisbee, chase her ball, and play agility at home endlessly.
She loved to be with her people , and enjoying life at home.
