If you’re consideringgetting a dog, ask yourself ...
What’s the right dog for me?
• How big a dog will this puppy become?• How active a dog will this puppy become?• Should I get a puppy or an adult dog?• Why was this breed of dog developed; what was it originally
bred to do?• Does this breed have special needs, such as professional
grooming?• What temperament and intelligence is typical of this breed?• What genetic and health problems may affect this breed?• How much does it typically cost to buy, feed, and raise a dog
of this breed?• Are there important differences between males and females
of this breed?• Have I spent time with puppies, adults, and older dogs of
this breed?• Can the breeder provide me with the appropriate paper
work to register the dog with the American Kennel Club?
The decision to bring a dog into your life is one you will live withfor years. Careful consideration before you make your decision willhelp ensure the happiness of both you and your dog!

AKC Dog Clubs In WashingtonThere are nearly 5000 dog clubs in the United States that hold affiliated events under the umbrella of the AKC for competition by AKC registered
dogs. Some are national parent clubs, others local specialty clubs, and still others are devoted to a broad variety of events from agility to obedience and tracking, from field trials to lure coursing and herding tests and trials. Many clubs meet monthly, others bi-monthly, and yet others more infrequently. All were formed by a diverse group of dog lovers who share the common interest of raising, training, breeding and competing with purebred dogs. These clubs not only further the sport of purebred dogs, but also many strive to promote and protect dogs in their communities, share in educational programs, sponsor training classes and health clinics, and operate a rescue network, as well as responsible breeder locator service.

AKC® believes a dog should be judged by its deeds, not its breed.
We are dedicated to the passage of reasonable, enforceable,
non-discriminatory laws to govern the ownership of dogs.
Support AKC efforts to stop breed-specific legislation.
Unfortunately, some legislators
believe they can protect their
communities by imposing laws
that restrict or completely ban
dogs based on breed alone,
with little or no consideration
of well-mannered canines.
AKC knows there are better,
more effective alternatives. Col

Dog ShowEtiquette
Dogs shows are fun and exciting!You might feel like petting all the dogs, but wait! Keep these things in mind as you walk around and
enjoy the show.
Always ask before you pet a dog. The handlers (people showing dogs) spent a lot of time and energy grooming their dogs for the show. Never go up and just pet a dog. Ask first.
Wait until handlers have finished an event before asking questions. Before the show, they are focusing on their dog and getting ready for their turn in the ring. Always ask permission before petting a dog!
Turn off your cell phone. It is a distraction to the dogs and handlers.
Stay away from ring entrances. It is very difficult for handlers to get in and out of the rings when people are in the way of the entrance.
Do not lean over the rings or talk to handlers when they are in the ring showing.
Do you have small children with you? Don’t let them run up to dogs or stick their fingers and hands into crates or exercise pens. Also, it’s best to leave strollers in the car. Strollers can place a child’s face at the same level as unfamiliar dogs’ faces. Plus, a stroller can accidentally run over lots of dogs’ tails.
Be careful where you step so you don’t step on feet, noses or tails!
Keep food away from the ring. It is a distraction to the dogs.
Leave your own dog at home unless you are taking themfor a special reason, such as a CGC® test.
For more information for kids about attending a dog show, visit AKC’s online newsletter Kids’ Corner. The Spring 2005 issue is all about dogs shows!

AKC EVENTS AT THESE SHOWSConformation rinGS 1-12 – Dog shows, or “conformation” events, are the signature events of the AKC. Exhib-its are judged against breed standards, which have been established for the AKC-recognized breeds by their parent clubs. These written standards describe the ideal size, color, and temperament of each breed, as well as correct proportion, struc-ture, and movement.
obedience rinGS 21-22 – Obedience Trials test a dog’s ability to perform a prescribed set of exercises on which it is scored. In each exercise, the dog must score more than 50% of the possible points and get a total score of at least 170 out of a possible 200. Each time the dog gets that magic 170 qualifying score, he’s earned a “leg” towards his title. Three legs and the dog has become an Obedience Titled dog! There are 3 levels at which a dog can earn a title and each is more difficult than the one before it.
rally rinG 23 – Rally is a sport in which the dog and handler compete through a course of designated stations. Rally provides a link from the Canine Good Citizen® (CGC) program to obedience or agility competition, both for dogs and handlers. In addition, rally promotes fun and enjoyment for dogs at all levels of competition.
agility rinG 31– Agility is the ultimate game for you and your dog. It is also one of the most exciting canine sports for spectators. In agility, a dog demonstrates its agile nature and versatility by following cues from the handler through a timed obstacle course. The course has jumps, tunnels, weave poles, and other obstacles. Agility strengthens the bond be-tween dogs and handlers, it is extremely fun, and it provides vigorous exercise for both!

SeattLe poLiCe departMent Canine Unit
For the past 40 years, highly trained Seattle Police canines have been patrolling the streets of your city on a nightly basis.
Our Generalist Patrol Dogs have located thousands of criminals that would have otherwise gotten away.
Our Narcotics Detection Dog teams have helped take millions of dollars worth of drugs of the streets and have seized millions of dollars in illegally obtained property.
Since being provided by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms, our Explosives Detection Dog has instilled peace of mind and helped make the region safer.
Four of our most recent canines were purchased by the Seattle Police Foundation and one by the Milkbone Corporation.
When our dogs reach retirement age they live out the rest of their lives with their officer-handlers. As K9 senior citizens, most require veterinary care for injuries or wear-and-tear received while serving your community.
Since the Seattle Police Depart-ment no longer pays for that care, members of the Canine Unit formed a non-profit corporation to collect monies to pay for these medical costs. Since 2001, the Retired Se-attle Police Canine Fund has paid more than $5,000 in veterinary costs.

K9 noSe worK deMonStration teaM
See a demonstration of the new-est and fastest growing dog sport for the very first time at the Seattle Kennel Club Dog Show. This exciting and inclusive detection-style activity is appropriate for dogs of any age, breed, size, or physical ability and handlers of all ages and abilities.
K9 Nose Work has been featured in the August 2009 issue of The Whole Dog Journal, the June 2010 issue of Bark Magazine, the November/December 2010 issue of The APDT Chronicle – the Seattle Kennel Club website http://www.seattlekennelclub.org/i-get-it-and-it-all-makes-scents/ The Seattle Times http://o.seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/localnews/2012881334_nose-work13m.html - as well as having been presented at national profes-sional dog training conferences.
The sport of K9 Nose Work was first developed in 2008 by a retired
police K9 trainer and two of his cohorts. Some of the many benefits include deepening the owner/dog relationship while expending the dogs’ excess energy, and putting their minds to work in a sport that can be taught and practiced indoors with minimal needs for equip-ment (recycled cardboard boxes) and space. Dogs leave class happy and tired while their owners leave amazed at what the dogs can do.
K9 Nose Work provides an energetic and focused outlet for any dog. The sport also brings special benefits for dogs with issues such as lack of confidence or focus, overly reactive around other dogs and/or people, dogs convalescing from medical issues, generalized social or situational anxiety preventing them from joining a typical group training class, hearing or sight impairments, and retired conformation, competi-tion, service, or working dogs in need of a ‘job’ to keep them busy and happy. K9 Nose Work has been shown to improve dogs’ perfor-mance in other dog sports.
In September 2009 Miriam Rose first brought K9 Nose work to Wash-ington State. As Washington’s first Certified Nose Work Instructor (and a professional K9 detection trainer/handler), she offers weekly classes at numerous conveniently located regional training centers in Western Washington. Four levels of classes keep owners and dogs progressing at each team’s individual pace. Exciting Northwest and national

Kathy Lang, President of Family Dog Training Center, will share her 34 years of experience training dogs and educating owners as she discusses solutions to common dog behavior problems. Kathy will address problems such as chewing, barking, digging, stealing, nipping, mouthing, jumping up, separation anxiety, housebreaking, running away, pulling on the leash, not com-ing when called and more.
According to Lang, “Unresolved behavior problems are one of the leading reasons owners give for turning their dogs in to animal shel-ters or rescue organizations. This workshop is designed to help pet owners understand why their dogs do what they do and give a long list of options for resolving their dogs’ misbehavior.”

explosive Detection Dogs deployed at various sites throughout the enterprise to provide its employees, contractors and visitors a safe work environment. Boeing currently has K-9 units working in the State of Washington, Southern California, Wichita, Kansas and Chicago, Ill. This program, which grew out of Boeingís need for enhanced security in the aftermath of 9/11, was established in November 2001. K-9 members of the Explosive Detection Dog program work with Boeing Security to identify and alert on suspicious material and are trained to detect over 17,000 different explosive-based chemicals and compounds. Boeing’s explosive detection dogs have been on the job at shareholders meetings, customer product delivery events, on the field and flight lines during flight tests, and at major employee forums held at Boeing facilities.
Selecting a K-9 requires that the dog and handler are the right fit for the job. Today’s K-9s are often recruited from rescue shelters or from other service dog training programs. The dogs are tested out to see if being an explosive detection dog is the right skill match. If they pass the test, they go into training and certification. Each K-9 and handler are certified together as a team once a year.
The dogs become part of the handler’s family, as the handler is responsible for his or her dog 24 hours a day.
