April 29 Training Day Recap

We had a great turnout for our April 29 Training Day.  We had 64 people, and 50 dogs!  The day started with a demonstration of Steadiness.  After watching the demo, Vice President TJ McKenzie talked to members about different techniques that can be used, and then members had a chance to ask questions and then do some practice during their time in the field.

The puppy field had a great time working with young dogs, introducing them to birds and working on pointing.
