Check the event link for the full schedule
and visit the site to learn more about each game and its rules…
A running order for each game will be posted at the registration table.
Pizza will be available for lunch. If you want any other food it would be best to bring it with you, including beverages. Also during lunch will be a raffle for anyone who entered and we will play Funkey as a bonus game (free to play).
If you are going to be there all day I suggest bringing a comfy chair. Of course bring crates and water and cookies for the dogs. Please bring a crate cover or blanket to help minimize barking. Potty your dogs throughout the day (outside) to help avoid accidents. It may be raining on Sunday.
Dogs must be on leash when not in a crate or competing in a game. No loose dogs.
Awards will be done immediately following the 2 rounds of each game. There will be a 1st and 2nd for each round of most games. Freestyle and Time Warp will have 1st,2nd,3rd overall.
Very much looking forward to the first UpDog Challenge in Missouri, indoors and the official launch of TimeWarp!
Thanks so much to the volunteers, the competitors, and of course our dogs, who bring us so much joy.
