Barbara Schuler Webboard User Reg: 01-15-2009 Posts: 5090 Loc: Lanexa Virginia Offline	Well, as each of you already knew, and after visiting Schutzhund Village today, I also know that YES I can do this! What a beautiful place with really nice folks working professionally, ethically, and having a great time. My ONLY concern at this point is the degree of time commitment made by the folks there today. They devote two days each weekend year round (roughly - I know everyone does not make that happen) to training at this facility. Life won't allow me to do this; however I'm not giving up and am going to pursue this further. Hopefully, with some training and dedication on my end at home, I can make a twice a month attendance "count" for Falcon and I. Time will tell... Thanks everyone for all the encouragement.

Ideally, I want to find an older, untitled dog for him to start with. There are certainly worse activities kids could get involved in.

My daughter altho athletic is only eleven and my youngest son is seven. both my son and daughter have put down tracks, acted as part of the "group" for the Bh and acted as distractions for me, they also do all the feeding
