International Puppy & Trainer Conference (iPup)

iPup 2008: In Review

iPup has come and gone, but not without some lasting memories.

With a weekend of educational classes and workshops, a panel discussion, mosh pits, vendors and more, iPup had something for most any pup or trainer.

The Butt Sniffing.... er... Meet & Greet at the Dallas Eagle on Friday night was a blast! I've never seen so many pups and trainers at the Eagle in one night. The pups took over the stage for a brief moment during the announcements and moshed a bit.

The classes and workshops gave people the opportunity to learn about pup and trainer basics, why we do it, finding your breed, exporing on a deeper level, and caring and owning a pup and an intro to medical play for pups, the vet exam.

Every weekend has a hitch and iPup was no exception. One of our presenters, Rex of Seattle, was a no-show. We still haven't heard from him and don't know if he's having some real issues or if he's just a flake. Whatever the case, Master Nitemare came to the rescue and filled in the time slot with a class of his own. iPup is greatly appreciative to Master Nitemare for responding with such short notice and doing a great job at that.

With three mosh pit times, there was ample opportunity to get your pup on. With about a dozen pups and at least three handlers, the mosh pits were quite busy. Cosmo ended up the worse for wear visually on the first night, with a subconjunctival hematoma (blood spot in the white of the eye), a scrape on the forehead and a brief and faint fat lip - even sneakers can do some damage. Ah, but it was worth it!

The Morning Fetch and Adopt-A-Pup also added some extra fun for the pups.

Please join us in April in Houston, Texas along with National Leather Association's Spring Iniquity. This will be iPup's first attempt to hold the event twice in one year. Houston is where the International Puppy Contest got it's start and we are bringing it back for 2009. We hope to see you there.

About iPup

This is the only Pup-specific educational weekend of its kind as far as we know and is in its 9th year of production with some significant changes having been made. This weekend includes educational classes/workshops, a panel discussion, mosh pits, vendors and more. Whether you are a puppy, a Trainer or just curious about the lifestyle, we encourage you to join us for the International Puppy and Trainer Conference.

This weekend will include classes and workshops to learn about puppy play and what it is about from trainer and pup perspectives. Feel free to take a moment and sniff out the PRESENTERS section to see who presented in 2008 and sniff out the WORKSHOPS section to see what was taught. We will have the iPup 2009 details posted as soon as it is available.

All pups need play time, so there will be scheduled mosh pit times available for all those pups who want to really get into head space and have fun with other pups. Pup Out! is proud to sponsor the Mosh Pit, an 18'x19' area of padded mats to play on along with some toys. Feel free to bring some of your own, but remember, pups tend to destroy certain toys, so don't take anything that you want to keep! :o)

We will have one big raffle for some fun basket items which means you will have multiple chances to win!
