Agility License, we need your help!
Dear MASUSA members:
I'm working on getting an agility license for our club so that we can hold agility trials at our Nationals on our own. AKC requires that I show that the members have an interest in agility, and what experience that they have.
If you could respond to me via e-mail with the following: drjaussie@q.com
Your name:
What experience you have in agility, what jobs you have worked at a trial, and if you teach agility
If you have already responded THANK YOU!!!
Thank you in advance!!

Westminster Draws Largest
Entry Since 1990
We have a MAS representing us!
Combined with the first-ever Westminster Agility Trial, the 138th Westminster Kennel Club dog show will bring more than 3,000 dogs to New York City in February 2014.
Preceding the dog show, the first Masters Agility Championship at Westminster will take place on Saturday, February 8 at Pier 94. With the maximum 225 dogs entered and a prime-time television broadcast on FOX Sports 1, the competition will feature dogs of all breeds and mixed breed dogs (All American dogs) showing spectators and the television audience why the American Kennel Club calls Agility "the most exciting canine sport for spectators." The combined entry of the two events means that more than 3,000 dogs will come to New York City from all over the country.

Puppy Puzzle to Evaluate your Litter
Found this wonderful site explaining the testing done on puppies at 8 wks of age to determine structural soundness and more. I really like the drawings to explain each part of the test and the writeups.

The opening page is for ASCA Trials but be sure and click on the Other Calendars and the Regional Calendars and other Events of Interest! |
