Thanks to all of you for all your support of the Sheepdog Shindig 2013. In spite of a few little hiccups along the way, I think are first Canadian Shindig was hugely successful not only for all the dogs that attended but for all their human caretakers as well. We are more than happy to report that $4335.48 was raised to support Old English Sheepdogs in rescue!!!! As the money is being disbursed, I will be posting an accounting of how it is used. Hopefully we can help as many dogs as possible. Thank you again!!!! |

Wow!! Fantastic. Congrats and thank you to all those who worked so hard to put this awesome weekend together. And another thank you to all who donated. That money will go a long way in helping sheepies needing help. Pats on the back for everyone. |
That's incredible!!!!!! We were so happy to be a part of the inaugural Sheepie Shindig! Congratulations to you and everyone who worked so hard to put on one of the best playdates. Thanks for the update. |
Wonderful!! Thank you for supporting the rescues. |
Barb you are truly an amazing woman! This was one of the best events I have ever attended and I again want to thank you for all your hard work in organizing an amazing week-end for us all to enjoy. I am so thrilled that the event was able to raise so much money for such a worthy cause. |
Barb, I can't thank you enough for the awesome time we had! All your hard work paid off. I'm so glad we were able to attend. That's so great that amount of money was raised to help the dogs. I'm looking forward to 2015 already! Cindy |

Glad you all had so much fun! I'm curious to know what events you planned for the weekend. If you or anyone in attendance would be willing to share. Thanks!! |
Here's the activities that were offered: Friday Beer and wine tasting Dinner "Toonie for Tails" (a "pageant" for all the dogs to participate in. Everyone got to vote for the dog with the best wiggle, cutest nose, best dressed etc. Saturday Grooming session Leash-free park Tour of the hosting town, Niagara-on-the-Lake, a very picturesque little town filled with lots of history. Farm for instinct herding testing, Canine Good Neighbour testing, agility demonstrations, pet first aid course, Murphy's kissing booth and then of course the auction where all proceeds went to rescue. Sunday Grooming session Visit to Niagara Falls Lunch with Shindig Sam Wine tasting Farewell Dinner I think that was it...well except for all the shenanigans that went on in the evening! |
