SHCA's Area Club Ringside Mentoring Program

In March of 2012, the American Kennel Club modified their Judging Application Process. Along with the changed process, AKC modified and clarified their criteria for Ringside Observation. You can find the complete process on the AKC website. However, one of the important points relating to clubs and ringside observation is:

Formal observations will be allowed with parent club approved mentors at National or Regional Specialties where formal ringside mentoring is organized by the host club.

Here is a list of the Siberian Husky Specialties for the rest of the year. If Ringside Observation is being organized, the contact information is also included.

Please check back frequently, as details will be added for Ringside Observation as plans are finalized.

Because these opportunities are limited, we encourage you to make your reservations early.
