Plus all expenses or divided among number of clients

EXPENSES:
Show expenses will be divided equally among all clients of dogs traveling with me, including dogs that travel with me for show training only.  Expenses will include items such as fuel, RV hookup, day parking, hotel, tolls etc. 

Board per nite $15 per dog

Prepping per dog each show day: brushing, teasing, dremel, chalking etc $15

Dogs Show Training and Socialization per day $50.00 plus traveling and board expenses. 

Dogs Show Training and Socialization per day $35.00 (Not traveling or boarding)

For all boarding dogs, food shall be provided or paid for by the owner

Misc. agent/handling while at a show- i.e. Health Clinic, Fast Cat, Lure Coursing, Barn Hunt, Dock Diving, etc.  $40 per event or class as time allows.

Unfortunately, if you have entered shows and they have officially closed, and you do not send your dog or bring your dog to those shows you will be billed half of the original handling fees for shows committed to. I need to do this because I could have taken on another dog to that show or shows.

Of course, there are always special circumstances that will be deemed acceptable for not sending or attending said shows, such as if you have a breed that is needing Championship singles or if your breed only needs Majors to finish and there are no other CLASS dogs of your breed OR there are no majors for breed entered, then you are not obligated to attend, and would NOT pay half of the handling fees as stated in the terms of my contract if you entered and decided not to show. 

This does not apply to Champions who are competing to get Grand Champion points (unless their or NO dogs of their breed or if only a MAJOR/MAJORS are needed and there are none) OR DOGS LOOKING FOR GROUP PLACEMENTS FOR STANDINGS.
