“YOU’RE LEAVING ME?” SOOTHING SEPARATION ANXIETY
Ever wonder how on earth you’ll ever get your Angus or Aggie to relax when you leave them?
Leave it to Jody Hergert-Andresen to help you master some tricks to improve your situation at home!
THE BARK STOPS HERE Let me count the various reasons why dogs bark! Join Jody as she wraps up the day discussing training protocols around barking and realistic and unrealistic approaches to implement in your home setting.
SURVIVING PUPPYHOOD AND ADOLESCENCE
Puppies are sweet but they don’t come with warning labels about their SHARK teeth! Using their mouths is the only way they know how to get their needs met until a plan is in place to expand their teachable moments! Learn how both of you will deserve this crucial timeframe in their development and time of bonding from Jody Hergert-Andresen.

SCHEDULED APPOINTMENTS FOR OPTIONAL EVENTS
We ask for your patience with a new system of scheduling your optional events that require appointment time. Beginning late March registrants who have paid for the optional events below will receive an email so that you can schedule your own appointments.
SCOTTIE MASSAGE: Even Superheroes Need Relaxation! (limited availability)
Kathleen Folz graciously returns to DCSR for another year with her 2nd favorite breed. She is intuitively aware of what a fur kid needs since she is a canine mom herself! Kathleen continues to be a canine advocate who is passionate about Greyhound Rescue, knowledgeable about holistic veterinary care and has a heart of gold and magical fingers! Session Fee is $15/dog
TRAINING CONSULT (limited availability on Friday and Saturday)
Join Jody Hergert‐Andresen for a focused 25 minute session on any topic of interest or concern. Jody is a tireless advocate of pet owners being positive, consistent, and being in a partnership with a focus on reinforcing desirable behaviors rather than correcting undesirable behaviors. Session fee is $35
PET PSYCHIC SESSIONS/Saturday
Gale Ritchey, artist, intuitive and pet psychic returns to provide counseling for you and your fur kid(s)as they express their concerns to her compassionate spirit. Gale is a Door County Scottie Rally favorite and has been responsible for some significant behavioral and health changes once recommendations are implemented at home. Session Fee is $35
Abdominal Ultrasound Screening (Friday and Saturday)
We are extremely grateful to Kevin Byl DVM (pictured) and Lakeshore Veterinary Specialists for their commitment to returning this year and providing ultrasounds on fur kid(s) particularly those 6 years of age and older. We know from work done by Dr. Debbie Knapp DVM at Purdue University that we have a better chance of managing/intervening on abnormalfindings the earlier they are detected. Scotties are 20 times more prone to developing bladder cancer which is the major reason we provide this screening for an affordable rate. Session Fee is $60
