BCCSC’s Educational presentations and Links

BCCSC puts on educational talks on different subjects and also sends out educational information via our Beardie Blast (email newsletter) to our club members. We offered a class on grooming your Beardie several times and it was a well-attended educational event. They discussed shampoos and conditioners, etc. We were able to then add it to our newsletter (in printed form) out to the membership. They loved it! And yet another time we were taught how to trim our Beardie’s feet to help from bringing the outside in to our homes, all the mess of leaves and things that can stick to their feet.

Member suggested subjects

We had another event where Sandy gave a presentation on Emotional Support versus Service dog versus Therapy dog, trying to help us all understand what is required and what the differences are. You can view a short video of it here, along with the hand outs given to the attendees.
