Shopes state that video training tapes, video feedback, observance of other dogs working, periodicals, and magazines all will be utilized in any training process at the facility so there will be times when the attendee's dog will need to be crated.  Attendees may peruse the library and check out any material to read or watch as time allows. Attendees may video tape any portion of the doggy camp. Attendees are in charge of their video cameras and equipment, and hold harmless the Shopes from any loss or damage.

    3.   TEMPS/TERRAIN:   Shope states the temperatures in Estancia are normally 10 degrees cooler than Albuquerque with a slight wind or brisk wind being normal. Shopes state there is no vet or doctor on site and none are on call.   Terrain can be rough; periodically there are rattlers on site. Nearest doctor or hospital is one hour from the facility.   We keep a first-aid kit on hand for both dogs and humans.  Attendees are welcome to use the first aid kits at their sole discretion. We will provide attendees with a handout of local vets, doctors, and hospitals.

    4. The attendee agrees to bring crates or covered portapens for dogs in attendance, to keep dogs reasonably quiet, and to pick up after themselves and the attending dogs.  Dogs to attend camp, take private lessons, or to be tested are as follows:

Shopes request all dogs attending camp, taking private lessons or being instinct tested be healthy, up-to-date on shots, rabies be current, flea & tick protection be on the dog prior to arrival, buckle collar be used with a leash and also a pull tab is highly recommended. Pad protection for those dogs not accustomed to rough terrain is HIGHLY recommended. If possible, begin using Tuf Pad two weeks prior to attendance if your dog has soft pads; bring vet wrap, anticeptic salve and bandages in case your dog blows, cracks, or injures a pad.  We keep medicine on hand for pads should you forget. Bring dog boots if you prefer. If your dog has soft pads, put the dog boots on the FIRST DAY - don't wait until your dog blows a pad to use the dog boots.  Dogs must be under control at all times and liability will fall upon the dog owner for any actions or inactions resulting in injury, death, or illness to the dog or to the attendee.  Any dog or human recently or concurrently being ill with a communicable disease or dog or person exposed to a communicable disease such that it would put our kennel or us in danger of getting this disease must not set foot at our facility. Attending or coming on site without disclosure can result in legal action as deemed appropriate and applicable.

    5. Shopes state the altitude here is around 6,500 and sun protection is recommended for both handler and dog.  The nights can be cool so a light jacket might be needed in the summer.   Head covering and warm jackets are recommended for winter as we get a cold, brisk wind. We work in all kinds of weather so be prepared.  Bring your mud boots.

    6. If you are bringing your video camera, please bring cables for hooking your camera up to our TV; our hookups may not be compatible.  Video feedback can be invaluable to both the attendee and the instructor.  We encourage the use of such.

    7. Full reimbursement will be made ONLY if Shope cancels the scheduled camp.  Payment in full for camp is expected upon arrival and/or prior to departure. A statement will be given recapping all fees for your records. As stated deposits are non-refundable if attendee is unable or unwilling to attend the scheduled camp.  Exceptions will be made on a case-by-case basis for serious illness or injury and with adequate proof provided.

An insufficient check charge of $30.00 shall be applicable for any insufficient funds, plus any and all legal action necessary will be taken by Shope to collect at attendee's expense.

   8.      This Agreement shall be binding on all heirs and assigns of Shope and the attendee and may not be amended except in writing and signed by all parties hereto.
