K9 Nose Work was developed in 2006 by Ron Gaunt, Amy Herot and Jill Marie O’Brien to bring the concept of detection-dog style training to dog lovers and their companion dogs. An enthusiastic community was soon created and the desire to have fun competitions in this new activity grew. The NACSW was founded to ensure the highest standard of excellence and structure for these competitors in this new sport. Our Education Division followed soon after as many of our participants wanted to share this fun activity and sport with others….(read more by clicking the link)

Dear AKC CGC Evaluators,
While dog owners are staying at home practicing social distancing and dog trainers are suffering a loss of business, the AKC Family Dog Program is pleased to announce that dog owners may teach their dogs tricks at home and submit a video to an AKC CGC Evaluator for review and approval. This applies to all levels of AKC Trick Dog training. AKC Trick Dog resources can be found here
.
How It Works
1. Dog owners teach tricks to their dogs at home
2. When the dog has learned the tricks for the title, the dog owner sends a video (via a link, etc) of the dog performing the tricks to an AKC CGC Evaluator.
3. The Evaluator reviews the video. Any fee arrangements for the Evaluator’s time are between the Evaluator and the dog owner.
4. Once the Evaluator reviews and approves the video, the Evaluator sends a copy of the Video Verification form
1. to the DOG OWNER confirming that the dog passed the test, and
2. to AKC at trickdog@akc.org
Then, to apply for the title, the DOG OWNER must send to AKC:
1. a copy of the VIDEO VERIFICATION form
form from the Evaluator (the Evaluator will also send a copy to AKC)
2. the Trick Dog Title Application, and
3. TRICKS CHECKLIST (for each title level submitted).
• Dog owners may choose to still have their Tricks test witnessed in person
• Evaluators may choose whether or not they will offer video reviews
• See a list of CGC Evaluators here
Kleine Munsterlander- Group North America is hosting an International HZP hunting test at Des Plaines State Fish and Wildlife Area. In conjunction with that we are also hosting an International Breed Show on October 16, for the participant dogs, most of who will be coming from Germany.

CANINE MASSAGE PET PARENTING CLASS 101
Did you know that canine massage can provide:
1. Improve Mobility: Studies have shown that regular canine massage can lead to a significant increase in joint flexibility and range of motion, with some dogs experiencing up to a 20% improvement in mobility.
2. Reduced Stress and Anxiety: Research indicates that 80% of dogs exhibit decreased levels of stress and anxiety after receiving a massage, as the gentle pressure and soothing touch help to promote relaxation and calmness.
3. Discomfort Relief: Approximately 75% of dogs suffering from discomfort issues experience noticeable discomfort relief, thanks to the release of endorphins and improved blood flow to affected areas.
4. Enhanced Healing: Canine Massage has been shown to accelerate the healing process for dogs recovering from injuries or surgeries, with over 70% of cases demonstrating reduced recovery times and improved tissue regeneration.
5. Active Dogs Rallys/Trials: The repetitive movements and high-impact jumps can put stress on a dog’s joints and ligaments. Regular canine massage can aid in maintaining joint flexibility and reduce the risk of injury.
Come join us for this informative and fun class where you will learn hands-on basic canine massage techniques, areas where you shouldn’t massage your dog, and so much more. Class size is limited to 15 people and their dogs. Registration deadline is Friday, September 13 at Noon. Payment will be cash or check (made payable to Stone City Kennel Club). Please call or text JoAnne Dykhuizen, Certified Canine Massage Therapist and Owner of Feel So Good Canine Massage, LLC at (815) 341-0919 to book your spot.
NOTE: Canine Massage Therapists do not diagnose. If you feel your dog is not feeling well or is injured, you need to contact your veterinarian immediately for a proper diagnosis.
