Woo hoo! Our Fall agility weekend was a great success. Huge thank you to all of our volunteers who got us set up on Friday and cleaned up today, made the event safe, and kept everything moving for 2.5 days. Some of you really went over and above and we are extremely grateful. Big thanks as well to our judges, Kiersten Lloyd and Kirsten Locke. You designed fun, fair, and challenging courses for us. To all handlers near and far, we hope to see you in April!

Hello everyone! Agility premium coming soon. Huge thanks to those who plan to come Oct 1-3 and have been anxiously awaiting the details. We'll publish the premium as soon as we have confirmation that we can open online entries when planned.
We regret to inform you that our Sept 25-26 Lure Coursing Trials and Sept 25 Field Conformation Show have now been cancelled 😫 It won't be a surprise to anyone in the Okanagan Valley that the drought conditions have made our field conditions unsuitable to safely run the hounds. The local fires also mean that trying to source appropriate fields in those areas is a non-starter and mowing tall, dry grass would be a fire hazard. Our best wishes to everyone currently on evacuation orders and alerts ❤️
Hopefully we'll catch a break next year. In the meantime, our friends at ALCA Edmonton have just released the premium for their September long weekend events. Keep an eye open for Foothills Gazehound Club and Western Gazehound Club as well.
Lastly, we still plan to run our October 1-3 all-breed agility trials and will release the premium a little later.
