Dog Haiku
I am your best friend,
Now, always, and especially
When you are eating.
I hate my choke chain
Look, world, they strangle me! Ack
Ack Ack Ack Ack Ack!
I love my master
Thus I perfume myself with
This long rotten squirrel.
Sleeping here, my chin
On your foot no greater bliss
well,
Maybe catching mice

Cat Haiku
Grace personified.
I leap into the window.
I meant to do that.
My small cardboard box.
You cannot see me if I
can just hide my head.
Terrible battle.
I fought for hours. Come and see!
Whats a term paper?
Wanna go outside.
Oh, crap! Help! I got outside!
Let me back inside!
Oh no! Big One
has been trapped by newspaper!
Cat to the rescue!

Old Business/Committee Reports
Kathy Hildreth reported the CPE trial application was approved by CPE. The IDTC Board approved the Trial Premium, which will be submitted to CPE for final approval and posting to the CPE events web
page.
Suzanne Etherington reported the FLKC confor-mation match scheduled for March 3rd had to be relocated from the Polo Arena to Vet School Breezeway, and the IDTC Obedience and Rally O
match canceled due to lack of space.
Kerry Boisvert reported in regard to next series of training classes. All info will be on the IDTC web site sometime the week starting March 4th. There will be the normal Beginner classes starting on Wed March 27. And normal Advance Classes starting on April 2nd, with the following exceptions. There wont be any CGC class this session due to lack of enrollment. On Wed nights Jan Estes will be offer-ing Obedience run throughs, any level, no charge for the first 3 weeks of classes. Agility Class will be an extension of the current Agility 2 class, without a new enrollment since all of the current students wanted to continue. The extension will be for 3 weeks, no charge, starting on March 29th, taught by
current instructors.
Sue Yanoff reported in regard to the IDTC day at Salt City Cluster of Obedience Trials. She now has
enough people for all the steward positions.
No new Members
No Treasurers Report
New Business
Pet Expo at mall will be chaired by Marg Pough. It is April 20th, she would look into combining with FLKC, maybe just have our brochures on their ta-ble. The cost to have a table is $85, and in the past it seemed that all people wanted to do was pet the dogs. Pat Welch made a motion that we combine
with FLKC, discussed and passed.
Vet School Open House is also in April 10-4. Marian Szbenyi is chair she is looking for volunteers to help demo agility and obedience and help with equip-
ment transportation to and from the pavilion.
Ithaca Festival Parade will be headed up by Chris OBrien again. The festival is May 29th to June 2nd.
Contact Chris to participate in the parade
Joe Osmeloski presented a new idea. He suggested that all beginner students be invited to join the Yahoo list group, then removed if they do not join the club. After discussion, he was instructed to come up with a workable plan involving beginner class registrar, membership person, and yahoo list manager. Then report back to membership at next
meeting.
Brags: No brags were reported
Meeting Adjourned.

Kathy Hildreth Magic did very well at the SOTC AKC agility trials Feb 22-24. He went 5 for 7. He had two QQ's and earned a total of 57 MACH points. Now he has 9 QQ's
and 356 MACH points.
Anne Williams Both Falcon & Q finished their IWPA Working Dog Excellent wheels titles. Q got his 3rd and 4th legs pulling 1050 (19.8 X his weight). Falcon got his fourth leg on Saturday pulling 1250 (more than 19.5 x his weight). Not bad for the
old guys.
Marg Pough DJ finished her RN at the Sand and Sea KC show in NJ (in spite of me, who
got lost on the course.) So 2 legs at SOTC and one at Sand and Sea.
