VOLUNTEER FAQ

WE WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO OFFER ADOG EVENTS WITHOUT VOLUNTEERS.
THANK YOU!

• How do I volunteer? Email ADOG, let Michelle, Kate or Sharon know at class or call 770-986-8317.  Please include the date of the event you're volunteering for and class you prefer.  Volunteers receive two free run throughs.

• Do I need to register?  After your volunteer position is confirmed by the coordinator, complete the Volunteer Slot eSelection form.  You will then be included on the list of entries.

• Can I volunteer to coordinate an ADOG event? Absolutely! We'd love to have you and as a way of our saying "thanks", you can choose $50 cash or one-half class credit. Sharon, Kate or Michelle will be available to help you through your first Show & Go and Ann will provide all necessary paperwork.

 

What you need to know when volunteering:

• Running order: The participants on the sheets provided to the S & G coordinator are in "date received" order with some slight adjustments for 2nd run entries and participants who have two dogs in the same class (see below).

• Multiple entries: Second entries/same dog: Novice/Open, nine dogs between 1st and 2nd entry (to allow for two groups).  Utility, four dogs between 1st and 2nd entry.  Same class/different dog: Four dogs between 1st and 2nd dog (when possible).  Handlers are welcome to stay for different group with their second dog.

• Pre-entries ONLY:  "Day of" entries are not longer accepted at our Show and Go.  If you have someone "show up" and wants to run their dog, refer them to the S & G Coordinator or if they are not available, apologize and explain that our Show and Go usually fills before the closing date and that we work from a waiting list.  It is not fair to those who were on the waiting list that weren't able to get a slot if we allow "drop ins".  If a person's name is not on the preprinted sheet, they did not register and can't show their dog.
