Talking Dogs Rally Course Building Workshop
Talking Dogs Rally has built up a strong and dedicated following since our arrival in 2010. Through our many trials, classes and workshops, we understand how challenging it can be to set up fun, flowing courses. This workshop is for trainers and handlers who would like to improve their course design skills. We will help and advise on all aspects of course design, from how to combine stations for class or 121 use, and set practice and trial courses for all levels of experience, to how to nest courses and adapt Level 1 designs into Levels 2 and 3. We will go over what makes a successful, and unsuccessful, course and demonstrate how to make them challenging for your clients. This workshop is a must for those considering becoming a judge. This is primarily a discussion based workshop. However, should delegates wish to bring their well behaved, sociable dogs we may allow delegates to use them to demonstrate some practical exercises. However, please be aware that they are unlikely to be working for most of the day. Thursday 31st May 2011, 10am - 4pm Tickets are £35 and include all day refreshments. Please bring your own packed lunch. Speaker info: Pam Mackinnon BA DipCABT, Director of Talking Dogs Ltd. and her associate and co-founder of Talking Dogs Rally, Becky Skelhon have been teaching Rally classes for the last three years. Both having gained knowledge and insight on Rally from the USA, they have taken the best from Rally around the world and integrated that with their own unique take on the sport. Pam is an experienced and popular speaker, trainer, behaviourist and author.

Jean Dodds DVM at APDT - APDT Continuing Professional Development Programme
This year we are very fortunate to have Dr. Jean Dodd present a day on Hypothyroidism. This will be a day not to be missed for anyone working with dogs in training, behaviour and veterinary practice. Those of us who have been affected by Hypothyroidism in our dogs know it is very difficult to find a UK vet who is attuned to this all to common problem and even more difficult to get blood work done to the detail that is needed to make a proper diagnosis. Dr. Dodd is a leading expert in the testing and diagnosis of thyroid problems. She has also been a strong campaigner to change the vaccination protocol in the US and had been instrumental in achieving changes in revaccination schedules. Come join us for an interesting and informative day which will give you much to think about and new ideas with which to go forward into the dog training world. We urge to you make sure your local veterinary practice knows about this presentation and hope to reach as many vets and vet nurses as possible.
