Obedience Rent-a-Ring
Heading to the American Belgian Malinois Club’s National Specialty for the Obedience trial? Great news, there will be ring time for practice on Tuesday, May 6th at Purina Farms in Great Hall from 3pm – 6pm. This will be in the Conformation ring, not the Obedience ring, so food will be allowed. Jumps will be available. Sign up day-of onsite. $10 for 10 minutes with all money going to ABMR. For more information please contact Jeanine Daugherty.
Pet CPR and First Aid Certification Class
This event will be held Wednesday May 7 from 5:00-8:00pm in the Founder’s Room (2nd Floor of the Great Hall), with proceeds benefitting ABMR. Registration is required (the earlier the better, please, as a minimum number of registrations is required to hold the event but registration is available day-of) and starts at $75/person. The class content covers all major areas of emergency first aid and CPR guidelines as established by RECOVER – the veterinary emergency standard. For more information please contact Jeanine Daugherty. If you’re on Facebook, please visit their event page: https://www.facebook.com/events/1673318773577565/
