Today, October 1st, AKC launches its new mixed-breed program. Mixed-breed owners can begin enrolling their dogs to receive special benefits from AKC. The AKC Canine Partners listing will not only allow enrollees to participate in AKC stand-alone Agility, Obedience, and Rally events, but will include special offers that benefit both owners and their dogs, including a lifetime enrollment in AKC CAR’s Lost & Found recovery service (which includes a custom AKC collar tag) and a one-year subscription to AKC Family Dog magazine. Plus, enrollees will receive a personalized and frameable AKC Canine Partners Certificate of Recognition and a special AKC Canine Partners decal.
The AKC Canine Partners listing application will be available both online and on paper (paper application is now available online in the downloadable forms section - http://www.akc.org/pdfs/mixedBreed/ADM001.pdf). AKC Events with Mixed-Breed Classes AKC has received a lot of interest from clubs to hold mixed-breed classes! In fact, prior to program launch, approximately 50 clubs have already submitted event applications for events with mixed breeds. Exhibitors can search for events offering mixed-breed classes within AKC Event Search. To narrow their search, they are to click “mixed breed classes” under the Obedience/Agility/Rally tab. Please note that mixed-breed classes will be available for events held on or after April 1, 2010. Where can customers find more information? For more information, including program details, AKC has a designated website www.akccaninepartners.org Specific customer questions should be directed to akccaninepartners@akc.org.
Thank you to all who have been a part of this exciting launch. We look forward to a successful program!
