CAN I BRING MY DOG?
Well-behaved dogs may attend the expo with an adult handler. All dogs MUST be current on vaccinations including Bordatella. Dogs should be on a short (no longer than 6') leash and NO FLEXI-LEASHES. For the safety of young puppies, we ask that you leave them at home.
Please note that while your dog may be incredibly well-behaved at home, bringing your dog to an environment with loud noises, large groups of people and numerous dogs, your dog may exhibit behaviors that you typically do not see. For the safety of your dog and others, our staff (at their discretion) may ask you to remove your dog from the premises.
YOU are responsible for your dog's behavior.

MEET THE RAT - with Omaha Barn Hunt Fun-Addicts
|
Barn Hunt is based on the traditional roles of many breeds in ridding farms, barns, crop storage areas, and homes of destructive vermin. Some breeds were specifically created to fill this role, and for many of those breeds, Barn Hunt provides their first true opportunity for responsible breeders to test proper working traits in their dogs. Barn Hunt is also open to any dog of any breed or mix who wishes to play the game and can fit through an 18" wide by bale-height tall tunnel.
Barn Hunt is committed to creating a safe and fun sport for dogs, that also holds rat care at the highest level of consideration. The rats used in Barn Hunt are beloved family pets. They jump eagerly into their safe, comfortable aerated tubes and truly enjoy interacting with the dogs. Barn Hunt is a great sport for older dogs, and older people too! Tripod dogs can compete, and so can deaf dogs. Meet the Rat at the Barn Hunt Booth at 9:30am, 11:30am, 1:30pm, and 3:30pm on Saturday and Sunday. |
