I think a lot of us were feeling this way today!!

Congratulations to all of you who showed up and were great teammates to your dogs while running your ORT. While we can't predict the weather, this was a bit extreme, and you all were champions!!

Big shout out to our CO, Sue Sentowski and our judge, Robin S. Taylor. Hats off to Nikki Williams and Nancy Bergthold Kwain for running crazy as our volunteers! This was a great team to work with!

Thanks to everyone who joined us, we appreciate your enthusiasm and your patience in the less than desirable conditions. Good luck to all of you as you begin your NACSW career.

We sure hope to see you all again soon. In less hot weather!!

Sorry we are running behind!
Huge shout out to all the fun people for joining us last weekend at our UKC Nosework Trial!
We had beautiful weather for our searches and how lucky that the driving school donated trucks for our vehicle searches.
Many thanks to Dennis, Sandra, Kim, and Keri for agreeing to be all judgey all weekend. And nice job Regan not only shadowing judges as she learns but also jumping in everywhere to volunteer.
Kelly and Sue did a great job keeping on top of the scores, Michelle fed us, and Nikki and Nancy kept the whole show running. You guys make these weekends!

In the true spirit of the dog sports, my heart was so happy when competitors agreed that we should wait for a couple who had a car accident but were still coming to the trial. Because you all were so gracious, they got all their runs in. *This* is what a community looks like. I'm still beaming with pride and joy to have such wonderful people at our shows.

Thank you to Janet for sponsoring the Maxx Memorial. Below are the top scoring teams for each Trial of Elite Vehicles. Congratulations to Nikki and Rue and Jennifer and Rowan!

We hope to see you all at the June ORT or the August 23-24 UKC Nosework Trial.

About Us

4G&TB is a not for profit club composed of members interested in growing dog sports through practice, trials and education. Our mission is to spread the availability of dog sports to the Chicago suburbs of Illinois and surrounding states. We currently host nose work trial events for UKC, C-WAGS, and NACSW and fun matches for practice and trial preparation. We understand the commitment you have made to have a dog. We would like to offer the opportunity for you and your dog to play with us! We welcome all competitors, novice to seasoned veterans, willing to learn, share their knowledge, practice, play and compete. Join us in building a strong relationship with your dog through nose work, games and hands on seminars. We welcome your feedback for additional activities and sports the dog sport community would like to participate in. Always keep in mind, the key to being successful with your dog is to have fun! While we welcome everyone, we highly encourage good sportsmanship between the dog/handler team and other teams.
