I’ve set up an account on YouTube.com where I’ve uploaded some videos from various dog shows and events.  You can most get to all the videos by either looking for the WestMesaDogs account or using the following link:

West Mesa sent a Sheltie Drill team and several freestyle doggie dance teams to the Celtic Festival at Balloon Fiesta park to demonstrate the great things that Celtic dogs can do (and one honorary Celtic dog).

I’ve created a page on the website with the videos that were taken of the performances.  You can see all the performances at:

The AHANM Doggie Dash and Doggie is this Sunday (Nov 2) at Balloon Fiesta park. The Dawdle is a 2 mile walk around the balloon field (4 laps) with your dog. (starts around 11am. The runs start sooner) There will be lots of folks there and it is lots of fun to see all the dogs.

More information can be found at the AHANM website at http://www.ahanm.org

(You register online through a link found at the website. Or I believe you can register at REI or if all else fails at the field before the walk. Cost is around $25 and you get a cool t-shirt and a goodie bag.)
