With 2020 fast approaching, we wanted to take this opportunity to share some highlights from 2019, including the addition of the Gemstone Grand Champion titles to Conformation and the revisions to the Nosework program. We are so excited for those dogs and exhibitors that have made the Group Top Ten Standings in our inaugural year we appreciate and admire your dedication to the sport of dogs.

We'd like to say thank you, as always, to our UKC Clubs and Judges. The time and effort expended putting on lovely shows and events for our exhibitors is so appreciated. Thank you for cultivating such a welcoming and family-friendly atmosphere. We wish all of you a safe and happy holiday season!
