**ATTENDEE  STOOP & SCOOP ALERT**

In recent months there has been dog excrement left throughout the grounds after our matches. Over the ten years Dumbbell has been holding Correction Matches this has never happened before and we have never before had complaints.  Please be advised ALL ATTENDEES must clean up after their dogs.  ANYONE neglecting to do so will not be permitted to attend ANY Dumbbell matches, trials or workshops.  Facilities that allow us to work our dogs are few and far between.  We don't wish to spoil our relationship with Cedarbrook or any other facility so please STOOP & SCOOP and do your part to keep facilities tidy and our good name in tact.
