Spent Saturday at the State 4H Dog Show at Rutgers judging obedience. This event involves all the 4H Dog Clubs in New Jersey. Events offered included Jr. Showmanship, Obedience, Rally Obedience, Agility, Canine Good Citizen Certification and Seeing Eye. It was great to see the next generation of dog owners, dog handlers, competitors and dog trainers out there, on a beautiful day, working with their dogs. The kids did a great job, learned some stuff, supported each other and showed good sportsmanship.
If you can, next year, stop by. You'll see some great dog handling and a bunch of terrific kids. Oh, and I'm told the food is pretty good as well!
