October Newsletter
MSDA’s October newsletter is available! Just as the weather was cooling a bit, MSDA hosted its first Dock Diving Seminar on October 7th and it was so-o-o much fun! A quick report and also links to pictures are included.
September Newsletter
MSDA’s September newsletter is available! Along with at least somewhat cooler weather, hunting and hunt test season is here. MSDA hosted very successful spaniel (flushing) hunt tests and mock pointing hunt tests. Reports from both of them are included and, most importantly, there are links to lots of photos. Next up is the Dock Diving Seminar on October 7th.
August Newsletter
MSDA’s August newsletter is available! Although hot summer weather lingers, cooler weather is on the horizon and so are fall hunt tests. To get tuned up, MSDA is offering both a mock pointing hunt test and another session of the very popular Training Days for Flushing Dogs. MSDA’s own AKC spaniel hunt tests (for all flushing-eligible breeds) are in mid-September, and we’ll round out early fall activities with something different – a dock diving seminar in October.
July Newsletter
MSDA’s July newsletter is available! It’s last call to sign up for summer pool party. Hunt tests for spaniels and (mock tests) for pointing breeds are coming up in September.
June Newsletter
MSDA’s June newsletter is available! There’s a Training Day for Flushing Dogs coming up in a few weeks and the summer pool party is in late July. Dogs in the pool!
