Fran's Addison's Disease, (a rare auto-immune disorder along with Vitimin B12 deficiency, hypothyroid and Coeliacs disease) which affects both humans and other animals, is now getting under control. Fran strictly limits herself to puppy classes, some good citizen dog scheme and agility training. All other work is now being undertaken by Glynis, Tracy, or passed outside of the group.

Thanks to everyone who donated money to Milton Keynes Animal Ambulance at Milo Spaniel's Birthday Party.

Tallulah Setter's birthday party in September raised just over £75 for Wiccaweys Border Collie Rescue:

Hello Fran,

Many, many thanks for your kind donation raised by your recent doggy party, which Raymond and Gillian Tetlow bought up to us on your behalf. Your support for our work is very much appreciated by all at Wiccaweys. :)

If you would like to join our forum on the website, it's a fun place to be and you can keep up to date with all the chat, events and day to day happenings at Wiccaweys.

BEHAVIOUR/INSTRUCTORS’ COURSE

Dates for the 2010 course to be advised.

Students having attended all three parts of this course will then
have completed six days of instruction with the additional advantage
of having time in-between courses to enable them to read around the
subject, to think about what they have learned and to put theory into
practice, thus gaining valuable practical experience in an everyday,
true life setting. They also have the added advantage of being able
to come back and discuss how the theory worked out in practice and to
discuss any problems they may have encountered. An Attendance
Certificate for each part is available for students who complete
notes on a full resume of the course. These notes will be carefully
checked in order to give the student a valuable source of reference
for the future.

The courses are constructed on the workshop principle, where students
are divided into small groups so that everyone will have the
opportunity of contributing to the discussions in a friendly and
informal atmosphere. For further details see an extended article in
the Kennel Gazette, October 1996. This course has also been designed
to cover many of the requirements of the Kennel Club’s Accreditation
Scheme for Instructors in Dog Training.
Six other weekend courses will be held at the Centre from June to
September including: two Working Trials for the Beginner – CD & UD,
How to have a Happy Well Behaved Dog, Tracking and Nosework for Fun
and courses with visiting instructors.

The Centre is open throughout the year for behaviour consultations
and training. For further details please send a large sae (A5) to:
