Summary Increased Participation in Events : Most events saw a rise in entries, with notable gains in Coursing Ability Test (37%), Scent Work (30%), Fast CAT (19%), and Rally (15%). Championship points for Group 2-3-4 placements, introduced in January 2023, helped low-entry breeds earn more points and decrease absentee rates. Strategic Planning and New Policies : The AKC is encouraging all clubs to create Strategic Plans to address declining membership and entries. A new policy requires judges and other officials to complete Stewards of Children® training every three years. A new CDC rule effective August 2024 mandates that all imported dogs be at least six months old to prevent disease spread. Health and Education Initiatives : Leptospirosis is now a core vaccine recommended annually. Several educational webinars are scheduled, including topics on agility dogs and canine reproduction. The Canine Health meeting highlighted the increased presence of leptospirosis in metropolitan areas and its vaccination recommendations.
