Happy New Year Everyone!
Everyone must have had a fun winter break because class
enrollment is down a bit! I also spent
too much this holiday (and ate too much) and am looking forward to seeing all
of you for 2012;). With the MLK holiday
on Monday 1/16, I think a few students were having trouble committing to the
current schedule so we made a few adjustments!
A few updates on classes to share… all classes starting in
the next few weeks have space available:
Northridge park
beginning and intermediate obedience course: Our class scheduled to begin tomorrow, Wednesday night 1/11 is postponed, beginning level at
7:30pm will be happening on 1/25
instead. Currently we have no one
enrolled in intermediate level at 6:20pm so if you don’t want to wait until
3/21 ENROLL NOWJ.
Balboa Park Focus on
agility (intermediate level obedience course):
which was scheduled to start
at Balboa park at 7:15pm on Thursday, 1/12, has been cancelled and will resume February 6th,
Monday night instead!
Tarzana Park
Beginning, Intermediate and Advanced obedience:
We have small groups for our January 14th Tarzana beginning and
advanced levels. We will hold this class
as scheduled but it will
be an introductory class… we will do an
official start on 1/21/12 for all three levels, beginning 9:45am , intermediate
8:30am and advanced at 11am! This
should help those with plans for the long weekend!
West Van Nuys Beginning class
(by White Oak and Sherman way…formerly at TAMS pet food class) will be postponed until 1/30 at 10 am
instead of starting Monday 1/16 on MLK day!

and Bobby are holding graduation for their last intermediate course, which got
rained out numerous times, on Sunday 1/15! Sunday 1/22 will be held as scheduled in Burbank, and has a
small group for rally at noon and for beginning at 9 am! Currently, and no one preregistered for
intermediate class at 10:30 am …let us

25th!
