AKC recently announced they are offering AKC Scentwork. Lily and I are still very focused on NACSW since we have an NW3 trial in March. I’m also (still) working on volume 3 of my book series. My initial thoughts about AKC scentwork is that I’m thrilled for a new organization to encourage the sport and they appear to be allowing disabled dogs to participate. This inclusion is a great step forward. I’m sure I’ll have other thoughts as I make my way thru 76 pages of rules. I encourage you to examine the new scentwork here and give feedback if you have any for AKC.
Happy Sniffing!
