The 4 On the Floor dog 4-H club for youth ages 9–18 will restart on Monday, Jan. 8, 2024 at the Lancaster Event Center Fairgrounds – 4-H office located by Pavilion 3. Meetings will be held every other Monday at 6:15 p.m. and last about an hour. Summer schedule (after May) to be determined. The 4-H dog project is fun and fulfilling. Training a dog is a lifelong skill! Youth should be able to maintain general control of their dog, and their dog should not show AGGRESSIVE BEHAVIORS before joining this club. A training collar (also known as a choke chain) will be required, as well as a 6-foot leather leash. All dogs must have updated vaccination records, and a copy must be provided to the club leader. The club will focus on obedience through May with a formal graduation ceremony at that time. In the summer months, obedience will be reinforced and reviewed with the addition of showmanship to prepare 4-H’ers for the Lancaster County Super Fair and, potentially, State Fair. For more information or to RSVP, contact club leader John Croghan at 402-957-3651 by Dec. 25.
