UPDATED!!! January Drop-In Session's

These sessions are for past clients who have finished our group training program OR clients looking to complete their 4th or 5th class. 

Drop-in session's are weather dependent. If it is a blizzard, high winds, bad/closed roads, temperatures below -30 degree's class will be cancelled. If you are not sure, please check back on a regular basis. It WILL be posted on this blog if it is cancelled. (and our Facebook page)

**Due to our ever changing weather conditions, it is important that you come prepared to the classes- for your selves and your dogs. Please make sure you are dressed warm, in layers, and that your dog has sweaters/jackets on if necessary. Snow pants, layers, winter gloves and waterproof shoes are suggested.**

Do you want to know how to "Layer Properly" to stay warm?

MOST DROP IN SESSIONS & EVENTS WILL HAVE PICTURES TAKEN AT THEM- To see these pictures please check out our Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/therufflife
