The dog project's first meeting is Tuesday, February 28 at 7:00 p.m. in the Llama Barn at the Hamilton County    4-H Fairgrounds. NO DOGS AT THIS MEETING! It is our organizational meeting, where we will explain the program and distribute information. Starting Tuesday, March 14, we begin training and continue every Tuesday through  July 11. At these weekly meetings, we will teach you and your dog some basic obedience commands and prepare you for a dog show held before the Hamilton County 4-H Fair. Our motto: "To make the family pet a better family member."
