Greetings!

Here is the latest roundup of events sponsored or attended by the Great Pyrenees Club of Southern Ontario. Winter is nearly over, spring is in the air and our dogs are ready to go! This is shaping up to be a busy year, so get your calendars out and get ready for some fun… Great Pyr style!

Here is the line-up of events that you will not want to miss. They are all in the Toronto area, but if we have missed an event in your area, please let us know and we will be sure to bark it out to the world.

So, get your pens out and note these great events… here goes:

1. Sportsman's Show in Toronto - held on the Canadian National Exhibition grounds in Toronto. There is a benched show of dogs and members of the Club will be in attendance on March 20, 21 and 22. This is a “must see” event!

2. College Royal Dog Show in Guelph - March 22, where Max (one of the newer members of our club) will be one of the featured dogs. Held at University of Guelph, Gryphon Dome. C’mon folks… go support Max and the Club!

3. All About Pets - April 10, 11 and 12 (Easter Week-end) held at the International Centre, Airport Road and Derry Road, Toronto. Members of the Club will be in attendance. Dogs, cats and who knows… maybe even the Easter Bunny will be there.

4. Specialty Show and Booster - May 16 and 17, at the Kitchener-Waterloo Dog shows - held at Kitchener, at the Kitchener Memorial Auditorium Complex. What a great way to spend the May 24th Victoria Day weekend holiday.

5. Spring is in the air and what better way to celebrate than attending the Annual Spring Walk, to be held at Carol Graham’s, Acton, Ontario – the proposed date is May 24, 2009 but it has to be verified so stay tuned for more info and confirmation.

6. Canine Good Neighbour Testing to be available in conjunction with the Annual Spring Walk - to be held at Carol Graham’s, Acton, Ontario – and like the Annual Spring Walk the proposed date is 24, 2009 but please stay tuned for confirmation.

That is the line-up for now. If we have missed any event, please accept our apologies and use the Contact Us Form on our web site to add your event. We will be happy to announce it.
