***EVENT POSTPONED***EVENT POSTPONED***
With all apologies, we are postponing this Shed Hunt to January 31, February 2, and 3, 2025. I, Heather, have gone and broken my danged foot and am on doctor's orders to be resting or in a boot for the next 2-4 weeks minimum.
If you have already sent in your entry and can come in January, just let me know and I'll hang onto it. Refunds are on the way to anyone who can't.
The seminars and lessons I have posted and booked are all being rescheduled as well, hopefully for late November or early December.
The new dates are posted on the UKC website and entries are welcome!
Thank you to everyone for your support and understanding. Biggest thanks to the Girl Scouts of Jersey Shore and the UKC for accommodating this change easily and efficiently for us.
It's Shed Huntin' time!!!
I have some learning opportunities on the near horizon out on Darlene's property in Robbinsville, NJ where we had the pool this past summer. Details and registrations are available on my website:
www.ZingZingK9.com.
The trial is November 1-3rd in Farmingdale and I can help prepare your dog. Here are some details...hit me up!
I have two Intro to Shed Hunt Seminars planned at this time.
With each seminar, the morning session will consist of an in-depth Introduction to the activity and organized sport of hunting for shed antlers. We will explain how the sport works and how to title and progress through the UKC program. We will then get into a rough outline of how we get dogs started on antlers followed by a demo by two or three experienced dogs to show you how a general event hunt run may go.
We will take a short break for sustenance and then move into the afternoon session.
Those who bring dogs and wish to stay and work may do so, you may choose to stay and audit the afternoon as well, both options are available. In the afternoon session, we will start dogs on antlers and progress them as fit. If a dog gets far enough along to work a course, we will do that too! The goal is to leave armed with the tools and skills to practice at home with your dog.
Hopefully, you then come back and practice and trial with us!

The working afternoon spots are only for those who attend the morning session.

Once I have received your pre-registration, you will be sent a list of what to bring and expect along with any other details that may be needed.
PRIVATES!
If you would like a private or semi-private lesson to learn the game without spending the entire day, those lessons will be available on Saturday, October 12, and Saturday, October 26. Email me for more information or to set up a time. Groups of friends are welcome and encouraged!
Experienced teams are welcome to set up times to come and work the course. I am a certified UKC Shed Hunt Judge and can set up mock runs to help prepare for your upcoming events. Terrain is a mix of woods and grass, there is NO FENCE.
The cost for private lessons and practice runs will vary by appointment. For information and to get a lesson set up, email me at: [email protected]
