"A dog to hunt upland game, a dog to kiss my
wee children, a dog for a fireside companion and a dog to brag about in the carriage house on Sunday morn." ~The Duke of Gordon |
WELCOME TO NODROG
The NODROG Gordon Setter Club of Michigan, INC is an organization dedicated to promoting the
BEAUTY, BRAINS & BIRDSENSE in our black and tan Gordon Setters
___________________________________________
Our club was organized in 1983, and for 11 years we operated as an area committee of the Gordon Setter national or "parent club", the Gordon Setter Club of America, Inc, In 1994, the NODROG Gordon Setter Club of Michigan was officially licensed as a fully independent organization by the American Kennel Club, but we maintain close ties to the GSCA.
We annually host 2 AKC field trials, 2-3 AKC hunt tests, and independent specialty show with obedience and rally trials, and a number of educational and "fun events", including a yearly eye exam (CERF) and heartworm clinic and a summer fun picnic.
We are especially proud of our Gordon Setter rescue program. We place an average of 5-7 dogs annually in new homes. These dogs are evaluated for any health and temperament issues and placed with new families. We are always looking for potential foster families as well as folks willing to adopt.
We also have an active breeder referral program which matches prospective owners with responsible breeders of puppies and adult dogs.
____________________________________________
At present, we have approximately 100 members, most of whom reside in Michigan, but also have members in Maryland, Ontario, New Jersey, Illinois, Indiana, Florida, Ohio, Maine and Minnesota. Membership is open to all interested Gordon fanciers, but Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, Ohio and Ontario residents will benefit the most from club membership since all club events are held in Michigan.

Last year, in an effort to elicit increased participation in events by the membership, the Nodrog Board created a Doggie Bow Wow Reward program. Points were awarded to NON Board members (Board members were NOT eligible to participate!!!) for working at events and attending meetings. This year, our number one vote getter was Rich Black with 275 points and John Grill was the number two vote getter with 200 points!! It was decided to award a Gas Card to the winners. Thank you so much for all these two great guys did for the Club last year. Please provide feedback to the Board as to whether you would like this program to continue next year. |
