COCKAPOO OLYMPICS 2012 As I have hinted over the last few day's I've been putting together some idea's for an event that would coincide with the London Olympics 2012
I am willing to organise the above event which will be totally for fun
with a little bit of competition thrown in for those who love a challenge. I propose to hold three disciplines, you will be able to enter 1, 2 or all 3 Or you could just come along and enjoy a great day of Cockapoo FunThe three events are:-
Obedience: - This will be carried out on or off lead. It will consist of 2 left, 2 right turns, 2 about turns, 2 halts in the sit position, a recall and a retrieve.
Agility: - This will be conducted off the lead against the clock, the course will consist of approximately 14 obstacles such as:- Hurdles/Jumps, Long Jump, Tunnels, See-Saw, Pause Table, Weave, A Frame and a Dog WalkAll the obstacles will be small and simple nothing more than what you will have come up against in your classes if you’ve done your Puppy and Bronze Award.
Best Trick: - As it say’s, show off the trick’s you’ve taught your Cockapoo, anything goes really!!Venue and Date:- Woodland Water's, Ancaster, Lincolnshire. 14/15/16 Sept 2012.
That will make most of us who got puppies this summer over 14 months of age which will be ideal to have them schooled on the small obstacles that will be used. Although if there is enough interest from people who have younger Cockapoo's I can adjust the height, length etc of the obstacles and we could have age categories. I also thought we could charge a small entry fee for each event you enter and all proceeds given to Charity of which we would nominate nearer the eventSupporting Attractions:- I am hoping to have a display of Obedience to Music and a Man-Work or Search Dog Display from the Royal Air Force or an International Dog Training AgencyI have also been busy on the sponsorship front and I'm pleased to say I have secured 'JukeeDoodles' as our event sponsor
Let me know what you think
and I realise some may think it to far to travel but I am willing to source some pet friendly B/B's so as you can spread the driving etc I think it will be a great event and hopefully one to remember
