Hiking Weather is approaching!
Click here to read the entire Article by Dog Channel
Exploring the outdoors is always better with
your furry friend by your side.
"Watch Out for Critters
The best way to avoid wildlife is to go on a trail that has a lot of foot traffic. This typically keeps critters away from the area. On remote trails, you want to make sure your dog is by your side. This way you can look out for any potential dangers in the area. If your dog does not heel off leash, then it's safer to have your dog on-leash.
Look Out for Dangerous Plants
Keep your dog focused on the trail, away from dense woods or foliage, because you never know what dangerous plants or animals are waiting there for your dog. A main concern when out hiking is the Foxtail plant, a grass-like weed. The barbed seed heads can burrow into your dog's nose, paws and body, eventually finding their way to organs such as the lungs or brain, which can lead to death" |

Calling all members who would like to see well written articles, brochures, and pamphlets with beautiful pictures for/about our dogs published
.
I need volunteers to assist with the Public Relations Committee. One of the first projects is to put together a feature article for the SHOWSIGHT Magazine. These are exciting times in the history of our club and your help and input is much needed. Please let me know through a private email if you would be willing to help with the all-important advertising for our club moving forward in full recognition in AKC. There are other very important items that need our attention as well. No experience is necessary, just a willingness to participate and help get the job done. Together we can have great information, beautiful pictures about our wonderful breed, information about their personalities and trait, along with their accomplishments all published for the public to see. It is my hope that we can form an outstanding PR Committee so we can share with the public how far we have come with our breed. Please consider this committee as your way to help get the information into print for our breed.
