If you have an ideas for fun events at the Hound Day (July 22 Ribarchek Field State Fair Grounds) please contact a board member.

Remember this is your club and we are just beginning to open alot of doors for our dogs.

We are doing lure coursing on Thursday night 7PM at the Ribarchek field at the state fair grounds. This is not for only the sight hounds. It is open to any dogs. $5 for 3 runs $3 each for additional dogs. We have had rotties, mixed breeds,  one very excited standard dachshund and one very little dachshund whom don’t know they aren’t sight hounds so any breeds can come.

We also have earthdog tunnels WITH cute rats for dogs that can get in the tunnels.
