News Updates -
We are not able to gain access to the Farnham venue as the road is closed due to major water leak! Please note that Tuesday class will be held at our Alton venue tomorrow. We hope to be back there next week but you will be notified by email or text if the situation changes. Hope to see you tomorrow - 24th August. All Day Workshop on 30th September We are delighted to announce another of our very popular all day workshops on Thursday 30th September at our Alton venue. Come and spend the day with us working on any problems that you are currently experiencing. A chance for you to concentrate on your dog without distractions - these sessions really help our dogs learn and you have fun too. An ideal place to remind your dog all that you have taught him/her and a chance for them to run off lead with our balanced pack members. Book your place soon either through your trainer or the office. Residential Training - your dog lives with ours and has the time of its life!
We are delighted to announce the start of our Residential Training and Care
service with effect from the 15th September. As you may know we are already
offering a service whereby dogs can be trained whilst they stay in kennels at
Spangleberry and this service will continue.
August Bank Holiday Meeting - Sunday 29th Aug - 11am at our Alton venue We shall be running a social skills meeting at Jane's venue near Alton on Sunday 29th August followed by a cold buffet and drinks. As there will be limited places, please book through the office asap. Usual fees will apply and all donations towards the buffet will be most welcome. Dont forget to put the 3rd October in your diary for the next event of our Walkabout year. A message from the Peanut Pet Shelter in Mexico - From Jennifer Macdonald :jen@peanutpetshelter.org> to: walkabout.group@ntlworld.com date: 29 July 2010 15:50 Thank you Carol, the help of the Walkabout Group is very much appreciated! When are you and Stuart coming out to visit? love Jennifer
Katie - 21.06.00 - 26.7.10 Our beloved Katie was taken ill on Monday 26th July and sadly the Vet could
not save her. The greatest hunter we will ever have and probably the
best footballer! She was a special one, unique in many ways, but always keen to
help and one of the many dogs that have taught us so much over the years.
Introducing to all Walkabout clients: Stuies aussie grills - homemade sausages and burgers - available now to all at each meeting - text Stuart on 0773 506 1037 to find out more or pick up a leaflet at your next meeting. And be sure to try some of Jane's fabulous free range eggs! Come Walkabout with us!! Some of our members now have dogs that behave perfectly when attending the social groups but are still having problems whilst out walking. So we are arranging walks for members away from our centres, in areas we know, so that we can help you there. If you are interested in our joining our group, please contact Carol to discuss the possibility. Costs will be just £17.50 and we plan to meet regularly in various areas. Our training dogs will also attend to help supervise the walk and numbers will be strictly limited. Mytchett Social Walk - click for directions Next Windsor Walk is on 29th Sept
The dog's found a way to cool down in the heat and made sure we got wet in the process! More pictures here
Farnham Meetings As with all our socialisation groups, all meetings are fully supervised and we are mindful of all the dogs' needs. A teenager's needs ( a chance to run and body slam with each other) will be different to a slightly older dog who needs a calm and controlled environment. But both need a chance to be off lead and relearn their canine manners and all owners need the time to practice their skills within a safe environment. With this in mind, we are splitting the group so that everyone can benefit from our Tuesday morning meetings. Teenage dogs - All dogs that have currently been assessed - start at 11.30 Social Groups and Rehabilitation Workshops (Click for more details)
