Classes will resume session 4 starting the week of Aug 10.  Registration
will open on line the week of July 20th.  We will have a few classes at the
land and when times are firmed up I will get a list out so you can plan.
Our intention is to offer classes that our members want to take, such as,
Rally Obedience, Freestyle and Novice Obedience.  We are also offering a
CGCA/CGCU titling class. 

 It has also been suggested that we offer members
an opportunity to earn the rally novice virtual title.  If you are
interested in using the clubs rally signs and space at the club to video for
this title please contact me at [email protected] or text 937-838-6042.  We
will assist with set up and reserve the building for you, you will need to
provide the videographer and trained dog.  There will be a $20 fee, for 20
minutes of ring time (does not include set up time), that will be put toward
building improvements.

Due to the extreme circumstances from the COVID-19 outbreak, the current class session has been completely canceled. Refunds for PayPal payments will be issued automatically, Checks will be shredded, and vouchers will be credited.

At this time, Session 3 is unpredictable. Watch for future emails on when we will be able to open for regular business again.

THE CLEANING CREW IS NO LONGER CLEANING THE BUILDING. Use at your own risk!!

Because of the unpredictability of the future, many of our trials are expected to cancel. Again, the website event calendar will be updated as I receive clear confirmation of cancellations. Please do not continue to ask questions on the facebook page, as it is a public forum where any may read it. If you truly feel the need to ask questions, contact me at [email protected]

Until we are able to safely play with our dogs together again, please take care of your family, furry and otherwise.

President, Gem City Dog Obedience Club

Due to the recent announcement from the Governor of Ohio declaring that all large group meetings of 100 people are more are banned, and the fact that we regularly have 100 people in and out of our building every day, we feel it best that we suspend classes for the time being.

At this time we are unclear on how long the suspension will last, and what actions we will take to “make right” any payments made for classes. Please be patient with us while we protect our families first, and make non-life threatening choices later.

Instructors – Please call your students and let them know that we are suspending classes for the time being, with more information to follow.
Thursday evening instructors– please cancel classes if you are available to do so, if not, please run your classes and inform them that future classes are suspended.

For questions/concerns on class refunds or for requesting a refund, please email: [email protected]
Please DO NOT email if you just want a credit. Credits will automatically be given to those who do not wish a refund.

With regret,

Chris Kiefer – President, Gem City Dog Obedience Club
