WOOHOO!! Our test dates have been approved by AKC. Mark your calendars...April 28-30, 2023

Workday December 5, 2022

We got an amazing amount of work done on our work day. All tunnels are dug and covered waiting the construction of liners. Master's liners are placed in the ditches temporarily. The ditches need to be tweeked a bit for the liners to fit. Thanks so much to Mary Ellen, Pat, Susan, Marge, Jan and Dennis, Richard and Kaye for all their hard work. I am sure they are feeling it today. A very special thanks to Kenny Jones and his son for doing such an awesome job on the tunnels. For those of you that could not make it...no worries there is still plenty to do before April.

Update on Rivanna River Earthdog Club

 Update on the Rivanna River Earthdog Club. It has been an interesting time since our last test at Twin Springs. The Izaak Walton League in Spotsylvania County, Virginia has agreed for us to have our future test there. We will be able to put in our tunnels and leave them in the ground. We are pretty positive we have gotten someone that will dig the trenches for us and someone else that will construct the liners. Pictures to follow as the work begins.
