Default Free one day seminar poll-puppy/young dog training interest?

Some of you may recall we did a one day free seminar to get everyone on the right track two years ago here at the farm. Since I am also training a puppy this year might be a good idea to have another one. last one was in April and turned out to be a nasty day despite a turnout of almost 20 folks with their dogs. I am thinking a Saturday in May this spring.

You can comment below or select a poll option to give me an idea on how many and what is required for a lesson plan:

While I am well on my way past the puppy level, I'd still be interested in coming out and participating. I think that with dog training, there is always something I can pick up or adversely something I missed.

I can say that last time was nasty, but I know I sure learned a lot. Tobias has gone on to retrieve well over 1300 birds since that ugly day. Never mind the hours and thousands upon thousands of bumpers in the time past. I had a blast and think this would be beneficial to anyone that is new or even intermediate in the world of training dogs past the usual sit and shake a paw stuff.

Good stuff Rob. Always nice to see the Funny Farm too.

I was also there that wonderful snowy day. But I would really love to come back out if you have the room for a 3 year old pup....

Still need to find a pup, but if I can line one up I would be very interested.

Just not enough interest to justify so far.

Have a new Newfoundland pup - was thinking of seeing if she would be interested in retrieving.
