The heat of the summer has got to most of us and made training a bit of a chore. We have tried some Friday Obedience sessions at the Reeme Road Reserve in Ngongotaha and have had Tuesday's in the shade of the trees on the other side of the park but still there is the unavoidable need to work in the sun on Thursdays and... <a href="http://dogsplay.co.nz/dotcl/index.php?post/2019/03/09/Good-Dog-Training-Newsletter-February-March-2019"><em>Read</em> Good Dog Training Newsletter - February - March 2019</a></p>Good Dog Training Newsletter - November /December 2018urn:md5:172721acd46a09bbddf3b050bc8cb6fc2018-11-18T11:50:00+00:002018-11-17T22:54:46+00:00Raewyn SavilleNewsletters <p>Christmas is coming….
Editorial….
Well the Christmas dekkies are in the Mall so that must mean that once again the crazy season has arrived. It has been a busy year and the Club has gone on growing and doing.

When I go out to Compete with my dog I am doing it in my time out from the dreary reality that life often is. For many working for a living is a brutal fact of mind numbing money go round. It is the glue that makes life function on a practical level but it is also stressful and boring.
So when I am working with my dog... <a href="http://dogsplay.co.nz/dotcl/index.php?post/2018/06/11/Good-Dog-Training-Newsletter-June-/-July-2018"><em>Read</em> Good Dog Training Newsletter - June / July 2018</a></p>Good Dog Training Newsletter - April / May 2018urn:md5:a7314d34356c7bfa28db6575400015362018-04-07T16:06:00+01:002018-04-07T04:06:37+01:00Raewyn SavilleNewslettersAGMclub newsdog training <p>All members wishing to renew their subscriptions for Dog Sports Rotorua for the above year need to do so by the 30th April.

It is with a heavy heart that I type those above words. Linda was a very close friend of mine. We were always pleased to be able to help each other and be there for each other, although the ledger was rather in my favor as she seemed to need to bail me out far more often than the other way.
