Vendor Spotlight: JT Wood Shop

JT Wood Shop is back at the KLIMB Classic this year, and they are bringing their handcrafted woodwork to the grounds from July 9–12.
From custom wood signs to dog-themed pieces, everything JT Wood Shop makes is built with care and made to last. Their custom dog achievement plaques are a standout, a beautiful way to display every title your dog has earned.

Here's a bonus: every swag bag this year includes a FREE custom crate tag made by JT Wood Shop. That alone is a reason to get your swag bag registered before June 24.

The KLIMB Classic vendor grounds are coming together, and we want you to come ready to shop.

Throughout the next few weeks, we will be spotlighting the vendors joining us this July so you know exactly what to expect when you arrive. First up is Fit Houndz.

Fit Houndz specializes in custom laser-engraved gifts, and they are bringing some great stuff to the grounds this year. KLIMB Classic tumblers and magnets are already available for pre-sale now so you can guarantee yours before the event. Keychains, tumblers, and more will also be available on-site.

Stay tuned; more vendor spotlights are coming soon.

Have you ever wanted to try scent work? Well, now is your chance.

This year, we will have the Eastern Iowa Working Dog Association running a Sniff It! event.

They have multiple options available every day for sign-up. If you have ever wanted to try any kind of scent work, tracking, or trailing with your dog, this is your chance.

The pre-registration form is in the shared post and in the first comment. On-site registration will be available, but pre-registered attendees will take precedence.

Registration is now available for Sniff It at Klimb: https://forms.gle/MD2emCQrFZJfTgXq7 . This event is designed to give new comers "other options" to do with their dog's nose. This event will introduce participants to track/trailing (deer or people), Scentwork/Nosework at varying levels, Search and Rescue and other professional disciplines. Not sure what you want your dog to smell? Start with the treat/toy sessions. This session teaches dogs how to learn to hunt with their nose and that it "pays" to do so without imprinting them on an odor. Pre-registration closes July 1st. Sessions may be limited. Don't forget to sign up for your Klimb swag bag: https://www.blue-9.com/pages/klimb-classic?srsltid=AfmBOorB3asvK0FXoRo39EnII0k1pd2_Y83XzkNNW1K5xQer0BcWfNZ4 (pre-registration for the bags closes June 24th!).
