  DogGone Crazy 4-H Club
St. Johns County, St. Augustine

Sherrie Keshner and Dr. Norma Haupt, DVM - Volunteer Leaders Kelsey Haupt - Junior Leader

The DogGone Crazy 4-H Club began in 1999 as a way for St. Johns County 4-H'ers to learn how to care for and train their pet dogs, and to show their dogs in obedience, showmanship, agility, rally, costume and trick classes. Over the past few years, dozens of DogGone Crazy 4-Her's have excelled in their dog projects, attaining state-level awards and going on to animal related fields after graduation. They are also dedicated to community service and learning life skills through project work and club officer positions. We are incredibly proud of all of our DogGone Crazy 4-H members, and consider them all outstanding! Because we don't have the space to show all members, we've chosen 4 to represent our club:

Long Down: the long down in the Sub-Novice B Obedience class, SJC Fair 4-H Dog Show. Michaela Scales is shown 3rd from the left, with remaining class participants (L to R), Kaycie Anderson, Amber West, Lauren Swain and Kaydee West. (West sisters are from Hillsborough County)

Senior 4-H'ers
Lauren Swain, Age 14
Lauren is our longest standing club member, having been in DogGone Crazy for 4 years. Lauren shows 2 dogs: Arrow, a 1 year old Siberian Husky, and Pepper, an 8 year old Australian Cattle Dog mix; and has won numerous awards in all dog classes. Lauren tied for our Senior High Point Individual at this year's St. Johns County Fair 4-H Dog Show.

Michaela Scales, Age 14
Michaela joined DogGone Crazy shortly after Lauren. She shows and excels in all dog classes with her German Shepherd/Greyhound mix, Charlie. Michaela served as the DogGone Crazy president last year, and tied for Senior High Point Individual at this year's St. Johns County Fair 4-H Dog Show. Michaela volunteers for pet rescue, and wants to be a dog trainer.


Beginning 4-H'ers
Logan Holanchock, age 10
Logan joined DogGone Crazy just this year in September, and won Junior High Point Individual in this year's St. Johns County Fair 4-H Dog Show with her 3 1/2 year old Australian Shepherd, Aqua.

Marina Carcaba, age 12
Marina also joined DogGone Crazy this year, and won several awards in the fair dog show. Marina exemplifies this year's incoming new members: enthusiastic and fun-loving, yet dedicated and hard-working. The judge noted at the fair dog show that this was one of the best groups of beginning dog show participants she had ever judged.


Lauren Swain: always very creative in the costume department, here at the Jacksonville Fair 4-H Dog Show, Lauren is a bus driver and Arrow is the bus!
