WCOTC Members had a great time learning about Canine Conditioning Fitness and the AKC FIT dog program today. Big thank you to presenters Kathleen Ingram and Patty Stafford as well as Melanie Vargo Fuellgraf for sharing equipment and hands on assistance. Members learned the importance of Conditioning and Warm-up for all dog sports. The dogs thought they were having fun at the playground!!!
