Member Highlight
Qualifiers for AKC Rally Nationals 

This month we are highlighting our AKC Rally Qualifiers for Nationals!  Karen Dinius’ Kash qualified for Novice class, as did Shelly Rish’s Jagger, Alyssa Foss’s Jaxson, and Jeanne Haisley-Samons’ Ruger. In addition, Lisa Petty’s Oakley and Cindy Cruz’s Maddie qualified for Championship Class!  All these members are eligible to apply for the AKC Rally Nationals held in Wilmington, Ohio, at the Roberts Center Convention Center.  Not every club has this many members and their dogs who qualify for nationals, so this is quite an honor.  And this is more than just a competition.  It is a good bonding time with other dog owners, and the dogs are practicing what it takes to be a well-behaved dog in the community.  These members encourage anyone interested to prepare for and enter a few competitions with their dogs.  ­­
