UPCOMING EVENTS:
We have recently received
approval
from the American Kennel Club (AKC) for Sanctioned-A status, the last level
before reaching full-fledged AKC licensing! Watch this space for more
information about the first of our two required Sanctioned A/OA Matches, which we hope to hold
in conjunction with the Ft. Worth dog shows in the spring.
 Obedience
classes are offered by North Texas
Samoyed Fanciers president Lynn Sluder upon request. We prefer to have at
least five dogs in attendance, if possible. The classes are held at the Walnut Hill Recreation Center in Dallas on Sunday
afternoons. If you are interested in participating in an obedience class, please
contact Lynn Sluder at sluderl@aol.com.
Here's
What We've Been Up To Lately:
Holiday Party
Was Jolly Good Fun!
Fourth Annual Rescue Reunion
- Our Best Yet!!!
On Sunday, April
6, 2008, North Texas Samoyed Rescue, Inc., in conjunction with North Texas
Samoyed Fanciers, Inc., hosted its Fourth Annual Rescue Reunion Picnic at the
Stone Tables at White Rock Lake in Dallas. The
annual Rescue Reunion Picnic is our way of saying "THANK YOU" to all of the
loving families who have adopted our rescued Samoyeds over the years.
NTSRI supplied
the food (hamburgers, hot dogs and all the trimmings). Plenty of fun and
fellowship for all was the order of the day as approximately 45 people and
32 rescued Samoyeds who own them attended. It was a blizzard (of white fuzzies) in April!!!
Mystics,
Mutts & Moonpies
Was Fun In October
On Saturday, October
11, 2008, North Texas Samoyed Fanciers, in conjunction with North Texas Samoyed
Rescue, Inc., participated for the fourth straight year in the "Mystics,
Mutts & Moonpies" event at the Stone Tables at White Rock Lake in Dallas.
 This event is a
favorite among our members. There's plenty of fun to be had by dogs
and humans alike. Dog-related organizations from all over the
Metroplex were in attendance, and there was food, live bands, a pet
"psychic," and plenty of vendors to visit.
