They not only compete in the sport of obedience, but also agility, tracking,
conformation, hunting, rally and herding.
Their accomplishments include:
Training and instructing in all levels of
obedience for various breeds since 1970.

Nancy Patton, who trained and instructed in all
levels of obedience for over thirty years, founded Dogwood. After her
death, former instructors, students and friends banded together to set up a
scholarship at the University of Georgia in her name. To make a
