Summer Conformation Classes

Posted on by

Drop-in Conformation Classes Start Up Again Tuesday, May 30

Summer Training Classes in Conformation starting Tuesday, May 30 and will run through Tuesday, July 11th, 2017 at the Preble County Fairgrounds at 7 p.m.

Classes will last approximately an hour, but it won’t be a solid hour of work — just a relaxed introduction to structured ring-work. Free for members, $5 for guests. Dogs of all ages welcome, puppies 12 weeks and up.

Outdoors in the sheep pavilion– covered, with lights and on concrete— though we will do a little work on grass too.  Come on out and have some fun.

Let us know if you have questions!

Join us for Roy Rogers during Groups!

Every year, Fort St. Clair honors a famous Ohioan and their beloved dog. This year, it’s Roy Rogers, native of Cincinnati, star of the silver screen and his famous German Shepherd, Bullet. (Read all about Bullet and Roy on the back of our show catalog–  we even found out about Bullet’s pedigree!)

To tip our Stetsons to Roy, we’ll be serving Roy Rogers drinks during groups— a splash of Grenadine, (a non-alcoholic bar syrup made with pomegranate whose flavor is described as both tart and sweet) in a tumbler of Coke over ice with a Maraschino cherry on the side. So light and refreshing!

We’re not quite up on Infodog (probably tomorrow) but here’s a sneak peek at our 2017 Premium List and all the fun stuff we have planned for this year. Our “famous Ohioan” this year is Cincinnatian Roy Rogers and his beautiful German Shepherd Dog Bullet (we think Rumor would approve). Show closes April 12th.
