Central Ontario Water Dog Test

[macgirl13ca]

I was just wondering if anyone is going to the Water Test in Guelph this weekend?
I've been invited by a club member to come watch, and am looking forward to seeing what all goes on. Apparently 12 dogs will be tested Saturday.

Hi, Bubba's Mom, I am new to this site and just noticed your message about the water test in Guelph. We went with our 2 newf's to observe as they are nowhere ready to participate yet! (they are 10mnths old) Found it interesting and hope to pursue the water dog idea with the female as she is more interested than her brother.Did you enjoy watching although when you don't have a dog in the event by dog 12 I was and so were my puppies glad to get out in the water themselves to play,what a nice spot to go to with dogs.

We ended up not making it. But will definitely be there next year.

Actually I just joined the Southern Ontario Club. Turns out the water trials are done in my uncle's cottage back yard, well, in the lake in his back yard. The president is good friends with them, and my aunt and uncle have invited us up to borrow the cottage for the training & trials. It's a small world.

Where abouts in Ontario you from?

I live in Guelph and was also at the Water test, just to watch. Actually my wife and I watched, but my 2 kids ran around in the hot sun and sweated far too much! We're members of the NDCC and COR, but our Newf Angus wasn't quite ready to try the test.

Here's some photos of the water test:

I live in Richmond Hill and my dogs are from Jaylynn kennels. Thankyou Rick for the pictures we are the couple with the fiesty well some would say bad temperment yorkie who has learned all the manovers to water rescue as he also attended the water rescue workshop in June! He can do whatever his younger siblings can do as long as this takes place in his water dish!LOL I also am a new member of cor!

I think so. I have yet to discuss it with my better-half

Hi everyone,

I'm hoping to get a puppy next fall and I'm wondering if there are any Water tests etc. in southeastern Ontario or Quebec. We're near Montreal and Guelph is a little far.

Ahh, you're looking for SEOR - South Eastern Ontario's Newf Club. They do water and carting and other tests/training/activities too:
