FIELD TRIP 101
Do you have a wonderful "kitchen dog" meaning he will sit on command at home? Do you get that same response in a public place? Bring your dog to work with us at a shopping center and we will help you keep his focus and display some manners. It's a shame to always leave our pups at home so let's teach them to be respectful of others and property.
We always enjoy sharing new experiences and Barrel Oak Winery is a great place to relax with your dog. The scenery is beautiful and it's a great location for any event. Travel about 45 minutes west on Rt 66 from Vienna. Take a picnic and enjoy the area. www.BarrelOakWinery.com
