Clearwater County had three 4-Hers and their dogs represent us at the Minnesota 4-H State Dog Show September 21st and 22nd at the Minnesota State Fairgrounds. 4-Hers begin working with their dogs for the year in April and continue throughout the summer and fall to prepare for the dog show. It takes lots of time, dedication and passion to learn the requirements and train your dog accordingly. Our kids exhibited in Showmanship, Rally and Obedience. The dog project is a progressive project, which means participants move forward and learn new things each year depending on their performance. There's always time to teach an old dog new tricks!
