If you have any questions feel free to email Jeannette Bayer. Some FAQs are below.
 
Q: Do I need to have a dog?
A: No! Some apartments don't allow dogs and some of our members may live on campus. If you don't have a dog that's just fine. Not every meeting will require bringing a dog and most special events won't require a dog to have fun either! You can bring a friend's dog if you'd like as long as we have permission from them!
 
Q: If I live on campus will I be able to easily attend meetings? What about special events?
A: No problem. We will try to have meetings very close to, if not on, campus. If you have trouble attending because you can't get there just let one of the officers know and we can find a ride for you. For special events we will almost always try to carpool, even if they are around town so just let someone know you're attending and there should be an easy way for you to get there.
 
Q: What do dues go toward? 
A: We want to teach members and the community about the cool things we can do with our dogs that build great relationships and make our friends easy to live with. We will be buying equipment to teach agility classes, making flyers, and holding small shows. Depending on the number of members dues should be relatively low and should never exceed $35.
