As if there was any doubt, Winter has definitely arrived! Yes, Mother Nature reminds us all who is in control this time of year!

While there, I was able to talk to many wonderful fanciers who shared their views, stories, and opinions and celebrated some wins! Among those I had the chance to interview were Chairman of the Board of the American Kennel Club, Tom Davies; Past Chairman of the American Kennel Club Board, David Merriam; and Dr. Jerry Klein, Chief Veterinary Officer of the American Kennel Club. I was also able to get a few minutes with dedicated club volunteers including John Low, who is President of the Kennel Club of Palm Springs, and Angie Stevanus, who is the Kennel Club of Palm Springs Show Chair. This is just a sampling of the great interviews you can see on the Canine Chronicle Facebook Page, our Canine Chronicle website, and Canine Chronicle TV! If you have not had the opportunity, please take a moment to watch these great interviews.
Those fanciers who are traveling to Shaumburg, IL for the International Kennel Club of Chicago shows in January in an RV, please pay close attention to the premium list! While RVs will be allowed to park, the village has an ordinance that will not allow individuals to stay in their motorhomes overnight! Please be sure you have made alternative sleeping accommodations.

Michael Canalizo and the AKC staff did a fantastic job of making the AKC National Championship a memorable experience for all. Thank you for all your hard work…In case you didn’t know, Wayne Cavanaugh fell ill and was hospitalized after his first day judging in Orlando. Fortunately, he is on the mend and safely made his way home to Michigan.
Please stop by the Canine Chronicle booth at the Orlando shows. We have a new look and l would love to hear what you think! For those of you who cannot be with us in Orlando, we will do our best to bring you fun video coverage from the shows!
