Ok folks, there's just a couple more weeks till our Championship Ferret Show & Cookout. Come meet some of our judges and talk to some rescue operators, breeders and other ferret owners. You don't have to enter you ferrets to attend. You want to find out what it takes to become an LOSN ferret judge? Come talk to us, unlike some other groups were you have to pay to learn to be a ferret judge, we train for FREE. The only requirement for the judges training is that you become a member of LOSN. I know you will have lots of fun so hope to see you there. On August 22, 2009 from 10 am - 4pm, we will be holding our first combined cookout and show. We will be holding a greater starter ferret show. We will be holding a training class on how to clean ears, clip nails, clean teeth, bath ferrets, etc. Also we will be holding a cookout with human activities outside.
